Metra Group, GoldCoin Labs Limited and ATIF Holdings Limited (Nasdaq: AUC) recently celebrated a significant milestone in digital gold finance, following the successful acquisition of GoldCoin Labs by ATIF. The $20 million all-share deal, completed on September 9, 2026, integrated GoldCoin Labs into Nasdaq, bringing Metra's gold digital-finance business onto a listed platform.
UAE's Shaikh Hamad Radakh highlighted how the country's strategic position bridges global gold supply chains, trade, and financial innovation, providing a strong foundation for Metra Gold. GoldCoin Labs is creating the issuance and infrastructure for Metra Gold (GOLDM), a tokenized digital representation of physical gold, with each GOLDM token representing one gram of fine gold backed by physical gold on a 1:1 basis.
Metra's goal is to explore how Metra Gold can facilitate real financing, trade and settlement needs within the gold value chain, with the UAE envisioned as a central hub for gold supply-chain finance and cross-border trade. The acquisition bolsters ATIF's exploration of digital-asset businesses since June 2025, providing exposure to the growing tokenized real-world asset sector and diversifying the Company's revenue sources.
