NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK / ACCESS Newswire / November 24, 2025 / For thousands of years, gold has been the benchmark for permanence. It anchored empires, stabilized currencies, and stood as a universal symbol of wealth. Yet through every century of trade, every transfer of power, and every shift in global finance, one truth remained unchanged, the industry relied on belief. Buyers believed it was pure. Markets believed it was responsibly sourced. Institutions believed it moved through honest hands. Belief, however, is not verification.

Today, that era is ending. SMX (NASDAQ:SMX) and Goldstrom are bringing scientific certainty to the world’s oldest store of value, transforming gold and silver into authenticated materials capable of proving their own origin, composition, and ethical path. Goldstrom’s global network, spanning bullion banking, trading, logistics, vaulting, and insurance, is integrating SMX’s molecular markers and digital-registry infrastructure into its operations. Together, they are rewriting how trust functions in a market built on legacy assumptions.

A New Identity for the Oldest Asset

For the first time in history, precious metals can carry an identity that cannot be lost or forged. SMX’s molecular markers embed a permanent chemical signature directly into gold and silver, creating a form of self-verifying material. No stamps. No surface labels. No paperwork that can be altered. Instead, the truth is built into the metal itself.

This changes everything. A ring, a bar, a chain, or a central bank reserve gains the ability to confirm exactly where it came from and how it moved through the world. Chemistry replaces speculation. Data replaces declarations. Trust becomes measurable.

Building Proof Into Every Gram

This collaboration is not a marketing alliance. It is an architectural shift. SMX’s patented molecular markers survive melting, recasting, refining, and every other industrial process metals undergo. Each time the metal is scanned, it reconnects to a secure blockchain registry that records its origin, lifecycle, and custodial history.

Goldstrom brings the global infrastructure to make this system operational at scale. Refiners, traders, insurers, and vaults can integrate the technology without altering their existing workflows. The result is a fully traceable ecosystem where every participant interacts with a living passport of proof.

This infrastructure also connects directly to SMX’s trueGold^™ and trueSilver^™ programs. A gold bar recycled in London retains the same verified identity it held when first refined in Dubai. No lost history. No broken chains of custody. Just uninterrupted truth.

Global regulation is moving in the same direction. The LBMA’s Responsible Gold Guidance, the UAE’s Good Delivery framework, and Europe’s Digital Product Passport all point to the same conclusion: traceability must be embedded into the material itself. SMX and Goldstrom are delivering a system built for that reality.

Compliance Becomes an Advantage

A verified metal moves differently through the world. It clears financing faster, satisfies regulatory checks sooner, and enters trade channels with fewer delays. Transparency reduces friction. Certainty reduces cost.

With SMX embedded into Goldstrom’s network, every ounce of metal carries a market price and a verified story. ESG commitments become provable. Recycling claims become measurable. And the difference between responsible and non-compliant sourcing becomes impossible to hide.

This turns transparency into value. Regulators gain visibility. Financial institutions gain confidence. Investors gain authenticated data. And the metals markets gain a new level of integrity that makes fraud, duplication, and gray-market activity dramatically harder to sustain.

A Global Architecture of Material Truth

The Goldstrom alliance extends SMX’s influence into one of the world’s most sensitive and high-value supply chains. But the company’s reach goes far beyond bullion.

In Spain, SMX works with CARTIF to bring molecular memory to packaging and industrial materials. In France, CETI applies similar technology to textiles and recycled fabrics. In Austria, SMX collaborates with BT-Systems and REDWAVE to power AI-driven recycling facilities with molecular verification. In Singapore, its work with Bio-Packaging certifies recycled plastics for global brands. Tradepro Group carries that same capability into U.S. recycling infrastructure.

Through every partnership, the message is the same: proof is now a universal requirement. Whether it’s packaging, rubber, textiles, or precious metals, the world is shifting from trust by declaration to trust by detection.

When Luxury, Ethics, and Science Converge

In today’s market, transparency is no longer a bonus feature. It is a demand. Consumers want to know the truth behind what they own, and companies want to prove it. trueGold gives miners, manufacturers, and jewelers a way to certify their materials molecule by molecule.

Buyers gain certainty. Creators gain credibility. And luxury gains integrity.

According to IBM and PwC, more than 70% of global consumers will pay more for goods that are both sustainable and verifiably sourced. SMX positions gold and silver to meet that demand with scientific precision.

Transparency becomes the new premium. Proof becomes the new luxury.

The Metal That Now Speaks for Itself

At its core, this shift is not about technology. It is about people. Miners deserve safe and fair conditions. Jewelers deserve recognition for their integrity. Consumers deserve confidence in what they hold. And markets deserve mechanisms that reward honesty.

Gold has always symbolized permanence. Through SMX and Goldstrom, it can symbolize proof.
Not just a store of value, but a record of truth. Not just an asset, but a verified legacy. And through it all, authenticated gold may become the most valuable currency of all.

NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK / ACCESS Newswire / November 24, 2025 / For centuries, gold has represented permanence, beauty, and wealth. It has been worn as power, traded as currency, and hoarded as security. But for all its brilliance, the truth about where it comes from has always been a matter of faith.

That era is over. trueGold, a majority-owned subsidiary of SMX (NASDAQ:SMX), is giving gold something it has never had before: proof. The company’s molecular-marking technology enables each gram of gold to retain a chemical record of its origin, purity, and ethical journey from mine to market.

This is not paperwork. It’s science. The proof is literally inside the metal. That means the gold in a wedding ring, a luxury timepiece, or a national reserve can finally verify its own story. It’s the convergence of transparency, technology, and humanity, and it may be one of the most important shifts in the global value chain this century.

A Technology Rooted in Responsibility

The marker that powers SMX’s trueGold is molecular, invisible, and permanent. Once embedded, it can be read in seconds without cutting, melting, or dismantling the gold. What once required weeks of testing to determine provenance now takes moments. And it comes with scientific certainty. SMX’s system instantly verifies authenticity, recycled content, and ethical sourcing, transforming gold into what it was always meant to be: a universal standard of trust.

The implications go beyond the lab. In regions where illicit mining funds conflict or force child labor, molecular verification becomes a line of defense. It creates a system where only verified gold enters legitimate markets. Accountability begins at the atomic level, cutting off exploitation at its source and forcing the industry to evolve toward fairness.

Independent testing by Intertek confirmed that SMX’s marker is chemically inert and non-toxic. It meets international safety standards, including EU REACH and RoHS compliance, the U.S. National Stamping Act, and Canada’s Precious Metals Marking Regulations. That means gold can now carry proof without altering its purity or its value. Traceability and consumer safety finally share the same space.

Partnerships That Humanize Proof

Proof, on its own, is just data. What gives it meaning are the people and systems that uphold it. SMX’s trueGold network is designed to make transparency practical, enforceable, and human.

Its partnership with Ava Global, a leader in high-value logistics, ensures that verification continues during every shipment. Marked gold maintains its verified identity from refinery to vault. Fingo, another collaborator specializing in digital identity, verifies that only authorized personnel handle the gold, securing the human side of the chain.

And in what may be one of the most significant commercial validations in the precious-metals industry, trueGold is partnering with Goldstrom, a global force in bullion banking, refining, and logistics. Through Goldstrom’s participation, molecularly verified gold is now entering real-world circulation. This is not a pilot. It is the industrial adoption of authenticated gold, proving that traceability can operate at the scale where global value is created.

Together, they turn the old process of “trust by declaration” into “trust by detection.” Every checkpoint becomes part of the proof itself. The result is a living ecosystem of accountability that safeguards both the product and the people connected to it.

The Global Network of Material Truth

The reach of SMX extends far beyond precious metals. In Europe, the company collaborates with the CARTIF Technology Centre in Spain and CETI in France. These partnerships apply molecular memory to textiles, packaging, and industrial materials, advancing Europe’s move toward measurable sustainability.

In Austria, SMX works with BT-Systems and REDWAVE, integrating molecular verification and artificial intelligence into automated recycling facilities. In Singapore, its partnership with Bio-Packaging is certifying recycled plastics for major consumer brands, while Tradepro Group in the United States brings the same technology into domestic recycling networks.

Each alliance forms another front in the global campaign to replace faith with evidence. Together, they reinforce the idea that proof is not limited to a single material or country. It is a universal language of accountability that can span industries, borders, and ideologies.

When Luxury Meets Ethics

In today’s world, transparency is no longer a marketing advantage. It is a demand. SMX’s trueGold gives miners and brands the ability to certify their products molecule by molecule. Shoppers can verify a piece’s origin, composition, and recycled content with absolute confidence.

This new era of ethical luxury gives artisans and manufacturers something equally valuable: pride in provenance. When creators can prove their materials are responsibly sourced, they elevate craftsmanship into an act of integrity. Every finished product becomes a reflection of both beauty and honesty.

The result is a shift in consumer power. Studies from IBM and PwC show that more than 70% of buyers are willing to pay a premium for sustainable, traceable goods. trueGold doesn’t just meet that demand; it defines it. Within a marketplace where perception drives profit, accountability becomes the new gold standard.

The Human Dividend

At its core, trueGold is not a story about technology. It is a story about people. It is about the miners who deserve safe conditions, the jewelers who deserve credit for their integrity, and the consumers who deserve to trust what they own.

Proof brings fairness back to the table. It bridges the gap between developing nations that extract resources and the global markets that consume them. It gives investors confidence, but it also gives communities dignity.

Gold has always symbolized permanence. Now, through SMX’s science, it finally lives up to that promise. It becomes not just a store of value but a record of truth. One that repairs the divide between what is real and what is claimed.

This new IP supports crofelemer’s global exclusivity in rare pediatric intestinal failure coincident with published clinical data showing reductions in parenteral support requirements with crofelemer – supporting Jaguar’s strategy to secure non-dilutive partnership funding

Recent publication by members of Jaguar’s Scientific Advisory Board and other intestinal failure key opinion leaders: “Targeted Literature Review and Assessment of Evidence in Microvillus Inclusion Disease (MVID)”

SAN FRANCISCO, CA / ACCESS Newswire / November 24, 2025 / Jaguar Health, Inc. (NASDAQ:JAGX) (Jaguar) today announced that the Australian Patent Office has issued a new patent to Jaguar family company Napo Pharmaceuticals (Napo) for methods for treating short bowel syndrome (SBS), bile acid diarrhea, and diarrhea associated with small intestine resection or gallbladder removal, in patients with an inhibitor of chloride-ion transport such as crofelemer, Jaguar’s novel plant-based prescription drug.

“This new patent expands the international IP protection supporting crofelemer’s development in short bowel syndrome with intestinal failure (SBS-IF),” said Lisa Conte, founder, president, and CEO. “Together with emerging proof-of-concept data showing reductions in parenteral support, this strengthens the foundation for our planned business development efforts to advance crofelemer in rare pediatric intestinal failure disorders.”

As announced, and as presented November 8, 2025 at the North American Society for Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition (NASPGHAN) Annual Meeting, the initial results of the ongoing and independent proof-of-concept trial of crofelemer in the UAE demonstrate disease progression modification through reduction of total parenteral support (PS) in pediatric intestinal failure patients that ranged from 12 to 37%. Specifically, in the two SBS-IF patients who have completed treatment, the results show crofelemer reduced PS between 12.5 to 15.6% at the highest dose over the 12-week treatment period, together with reduced loose watery stools frequency. For the initial MVID patient who has completed treatment, PS needs were reduced by up to 27% at the highest dose over the initial 12-week treatment period and up to 37% during the extension period upon reinitiation of crofelemer treatment, and showed reduced frequency of loose watery stools. These findings support continued evaluation of crofelemer to reduce PS needs for pediatric intestinal failure patients.

“The intestines of patients with intestinal failure due to short bowel syndrome often do not function properly, as is always the case with patients with intestinal failure due to the ultrarare genetic disorder microvillus inclusion disease (MVID). Intestinal failure is a debilitating, lifelong condition that often requires patients to receive life-sustaining fluids, electrolytes and nutrients through intravenous administration, which consists of total parenteral nutrition (TPN) with supplemental intravenous fluids, which together constitute parenteral support (PS). Most intestinal failure patients require PS up to 7 days a week, and sometimes for 20 hours or more per day,” Conte said.

While crucial for intestinal failure patients, PS is associated with significant toxicities to patients, similar to some toxicities associated with chemotherapy, often causing serious health problems including infections, metabolic complications, liver and kidney function problems – as well as a risk of neurodevelopmental delay. These symptoms may emerge at any time in intestinal failure patients, and often become life-threatening.

SBS affects approximately 10,000 to 20,000 people in the US, according to the Crohn’s & Colitis Foundation, and it is estimated that the population of SBS patients in Europe is approximately the same size. MVID is a devastating ultrarare pediatric disorder, with an estimated worldwide prevalence of 100-200 patients, characterized by severe malabsorption that requires life-sustaining parenteral support to meet the nutritional, fluid and electrolyte requirements of the child, and for which there are currently no approved treatments. MVID has a lethal natural history along with significant co-morbidities.

An article by Pravin Chaturvedi, PhD, Jaguar’s Chief Scientific Officer and Chair of the Jaguar and Napo Scientific Advisory Board, Michela Pantaleoni of Jaguar family company Napo Therapeutics in Italy, along with other members of the company’s Scientific Advisory Board and intestinal failure key opinion leaders, has been published in Clinical Nutrition Open Science, the official peer-reviewed open-access journal of ESPEN, the European Society for Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism. The article, “Targeted Literature Review and Assessment of Evidence in Microvillus Inclusion Disease (MVID),” synthesizes reported evidence on MVID’s clinical manifestations, treatment, and outcomes, highlighting the disease burden and identifying key gaps in current knowledge.

In addition to supporting the ongoing IIT in the UAE, Napo is also conducting a placebo-controlled clinical trial of crofelemer in pediatric SBS-IF patients at sites in the US and EU, and a placebo-controlled clinical trial of crofelemer in pediatric MVID patients at sites in the US, EU, and Middle East. The company is also providing crofelemer powder for oral solution for use in two expanded access programs in intestinal failure patients with MVID in the US, and for an IIT of crofelemer to treat intestinal failure in adult SBS-IF patients in the US.

As with all potential follow-on indications, Jaguar and Napo prioritize IP protection. Napo currently holds approximately 195 patents and approximately 56 patents pending. To date, crofelemer is the only oral plant-based prescription medicine approved under the FDA’s Botanical Guidance, which provides an important additional exclusivity advantage due to the inherent practicalities limiting the pathway by which a generic version of the drug could be produced.

About Crofelemer

Crofelemer is a novel, oral plant-based prescription medicine purified from the red bark sap, also referred to as “dragon’s blood,” of the Croton lechleri tree in the Amazon Rainforest. Napo Pharmaceuticals has established a sustainable harvesting program, under fair trade practices, for crofelemer to ensure a high degree of quality, ecological integrity, and support for indigenous communities.
