Key points

  • Ault Global Commodities tokenized 5,000 troy ounces of silver, listed on the Ault Markets DEX platform.

Hyperscale Data, an AI data center operator listed on NYSE American, announced on Oct. 16, 2026, that its subsidiary Ault Global Commodities has tokenized 5,000 troy ounces of physical silver 1. The tokens have been listed on Ault Markets, an access portal to a decentralized exchange operating on the Ault Blockchain 1.

Each token corresponds to one troy ounce of physical spot silver, and tokenholders can redeem the digital assets for physical metal in increments of 100 tokens 1. The underlying silver is held in custody in vaults operated by The Wyoming Reserve 1. According to the company, secondary trading on the decentralized exchange is anticipated to begin within weeks 1.

Expansion of Onchain Commodities

The silver tokenization follows the company's Oct. 8, 2026, deployment of live, invitation-only access to the exchange platform 1. The initiative is part of an ongoing strategy to bridge real-world commodities and decentralized finance infrastructure, which previously saw the firm launch its beta decentralized exchange on Ault Blockchain 1.

Hyperscale Data stated that listing decisions and trading executions on the venue operate without centralized entity control, consistent with standard DEX architecture 1. Moving forward, the company plans to evaluate the tokenization of additional precious metals, including gold and platinum, alongside other eligible real-world assets, subject to regulatory and custody requirements 1.
