Goldmoney Inc. (TSX:XAU) (US:XAUMF) (“Goldmoney” or the
“Company”), a precious metal financial service and technology
company, is pleased to announce that its subsidiary company
Totenpass Inc. has today launched its digital storage drive
solution in beta.
Totenpass Inc., based in Rochester New York, has been developing
a permanent digital storage drive constructed from solid gold that
requires no energy and has no movable parts. Digital data is
written onto the drive by way of a proprietary light-diffraction
process which imprints images, documents, and other files that can
be stored as either human readable without the aid of computers or
machine-readable with the employ of a smartphone.
This technology allows for the permanent storage of precious
digital data, thereby eliminating any future dependence on the
internet and the vast amounts of energy required presently to store
content. By consequence, this technology will empower both
individuals and corporations to decentralize, preserve and fully
control their precious digital data once and forever.
The company was founded by Goldmoney CEO Roy Sebag, Bruce Ha,
the former director of optical media at Kodak, and Goldmoney CTO
Alessandro Premoli. Goldmoney has made a series of investments in
the company since 2017 and currently owns a majority of the
outstanding shares.
The Totenpass is being initially launched in two sizes which
retail for $50 and $75 USD respectively. The company offers global
shipping and accepts payment via credit card or cryptocurrency.

A 22 page white paper has been published providing further

Statement from Roy Sebag, Chairman and Chief Executive
Officer:
Today, through our subsidiary company Totenpass, Goldmoney
embarks on a new journey to disrupt the digital storage market.
Over the past four years, Goldmoney has been inspired to expand our
business activity beyond the custody and storage of savings,
seeking to empower users to have autonomous and permanent custody
of their precious digital information through the unique medium of
gold. More so than any of our past ventures, Totenpass exemplifies
the interdisciplinary nature of the group and our willingness to
take risks, disrupt and compete with existing industries. Totenpass
was born of a simple and yet ancient idea: to indelibly inscribe
information upon precious metals in order to preserve them for
future generations. We married this historic, cultural tradition to
brand new technology in order to extract digital files (stored as
binary code) from the omnipresent Cloud and embody them in physical
gold. We learned about cutting-edge material science and light
refraction technology. We then developed a team of leading experts
in their fields who researched and developed a ground-breaking
solution to the problem of digital storage. This has been an
extraordinary feat which may very well be remembered as the
greatest contribution that our group has made yet.
The vision and goal of Totenpass has now been achieved: users
can save their precious digital files offline and retain true
ownership of their data once and forever. While improvements and
developments may still be made, we have decided to launch in Beta
mode so that users can experience Totenpass for themselves. I
personally believe that this initial use case will sufficiently
serve as the foundation to build an original, exciting business
with great potential for year-over-year revenue growth and
profitability. We now must wait and see whether consumers
agree.
I would like to thank Bruce Ha, Alessandro Premoli and the team
led by Carmelo Chiarenza for their outstanding work in bringing
this technology to life. I would also like to thank our patient
shareholders who have expressed their personal desire to see
Totenpass launched as soon as possible. We will begin to update
investors on the progress of Totenpass in our quarterly financial
results and other communications.
