Metals.io has started issuing tokens backed by physical copper stored in Germany, with the initial batch tied to about 25 tonnes of metal worth roughly $366,000. The company said the launch is aimed at building a market where investors can own and trade physical metal onchain. The offering centers on tokenized exposure to copper rather than a synthetic product, with the underlying inventory held in Germany. The move places Metals.io in the growing segment of blockchain-based products linked to real-world assets, though the company’s stated focus in this case is specifically on creating an onchain market for physical metal ownership and trading.
