China unveils world's first Gold ATM that melts, tests, and converts gold into instant bank transfers.
China's Gold ATM, introduced in Shanghai and Suzhou, melts gold items over 3 grams with 50% purity, tests them using a spectrometer, and converts the value into instant bank transfers within 30 minutes, reflecting a push to make gold a liquid asset amid soaring prices at $3,400 per ounce.
This innovation by Shenzhen-based Kinghood Group, already in 100 cities, aligns with China's de-dollarization strategy, reducing reliance on the U.S. dollar by promoting asset-backed transactions, as seen in their increased gold reserves and reduced U.S. Treasury holdings since 2014.
