Metaplex Foundation signs MOU with Crucible Limited to tokenize gold production on Solana

The deal uses the new MPL-3643 standard to link token holders to gold as it comes out of a partner mine Gold has spent thousands of years sitting in vaults. Metaplex Foundation wants some of it to start moving before it even leaves the ground. On November 10, 2026, Metaplex Foundation announced it had signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Crucible Limited to bring tokenized gold production to Solana . The framework runs on MPL-3643, a compliance-focused token standard Metaplex introduced only weeks earlier. Most tokenized gold products put a static bar on-chain.
