🇧🇹 Bhutan Just Launched TER A Gold-Backed Sovereign Digital Token on Solana
In a global market where most nations are still “exploring” digital assets, Bhutan just moved straight to execution. Their new token, #TER will be a gold-backed sovereign digital asset issued directly by the Royal Government and it’s going live on Solana on December 17.
This is one of the most significant signals we’ve seen from a nation-state in months: not just adopting blockchain, but using it for a real, collateralized asset tied to national reserves. It’s the opposite of speculative the architecture forces accountability, collateral transparency, and on-chain solvency.
By choosing #solana Bhutan is aligning with high-throughput, low-cost infrastructure capable of serving real-world financial primitives, not just retail speculation. TER could evolve into a programmable gold standard, offering institutions instant settlement, 24/7 liquidity, and verifiable backing something traditional gold certificates have never delivered.
While most governments are still drafting whitepapers, Bhutan is building a sovereign digital economy one asset at a time. And launching on-chain gold in the middle of global monetary volatility?
That’s a message and the market will hear it.
A small nation. A bold move. A new precedent.
