Argo Digital US has launched its 24/7 gold investment platform in the US.
In an early February announcement, the Sprott family-backed company said the launch reflects its commitment to delivering safe and accessible gold investment opportunities, offering secure, digital access to physical gold.
“We believe Argo will appeal to the modern investor looking for a secure digital-first platform that meets their alternative investment needs,” said Argo Co-founder and President Michael Petch in a statement.
A market-driven launch
According to Argo, its analysis suggests that around 8.2 million retail investors could be open to investing in the yellow metal, representing a US$5.45 billion annual investment opportunity.
“With ongoing economic uncertainty and persistent inflation concerns, investors are increasingly looking toward gold as a stable store of value. Our market research, including data from the Federal Reserve, indicates that Gen X and Millennial investors in North America hold over US$11 trillion in assets, with a significant portion of their capital sitting in traditional securities and savings accounts,” Petch explained to the Investing News Network.
Data from the World Gold Council shows that annual gold investment reached a four year high of 1,180 metric tons in 2024, a 25 percent increase. In addition, Q4 demand value hit US$111 billion.
“This took 2024 over the line to reach the highest-ever annual value of US$382 billion,” the council notes.
Simplifying gold investment
Argo believes its gold investment platform brings a number of new elements to the table.
“(Our platform) is designed to provide retail investors with direct access to high-quality physical gold holdings. The platform was initially launched with a robust inventory of gold insured and securely stored with a trusted sovereign custodian, ensuring sufficient liquidity to meet investor demand,” the company said via email.
Argo is also committed to eliminating transaction fees to encourage investors to buy and sell gold.
“We have a highly competitive and transparent storage fee of just 0.12 percent, which is significantly lower than traditional gold investment options,” Petch said, adding that this eliminates hidden charges and high markups.
The platform exclusively holds Argo’s assets at present, but the company is open to expansion in the future.
“We are open to strategic partnerships and collaborations with reputable gold suppliers, institutions and investment platforms that align with our commitment to transparency and investor security,” Petch said.
Additional precious metals, in all their forms, will be added to the platform at a later date. There are also plans to integrate additional offerings, such as direct deposits and crypto-to-gold conversions in the future.
“Our founding team's long-standing success in the precious metals markets and asset management industry gives us deep confidence in Argo Digital Gold’s expansion into the US,” Argo Co-Founder and Chair Peter Grosskopf added.
“As we introduce a modernized platform to the process of buying one of the world’s oldest alternative assets, (we are) seeking to disrupt the US$3.2 trillion gold investment industry by enabling easy and direct ownership of precious metals."
On payments and privacy
Argo supports automated clearinghouse and wire transfers, with additional payment options to be added later.
When asked about security, Argo said it has implemented stringent data protection measures to safeguard user data, including industry-standard encryption, secure authentication protocols and compliance with regulatory frameworks.
“Our platform operates with a zero-compromise approach to privacy, ensuring that personal and financial details are protected against unauthorized access,” Petch said. He also noted that all gold holdings are fully insured and stored with trusted institutional partners for an added layer of security and confidence for Argo’s investors.
Gold growth
According to Argo, gold has demonstrated an impressive average annual growth rate of 8 percent in US dollars since 1971, supported by its inverse correlation to the stock market in periods of risk.
The precious metal has reached multiple new highs in 2025 already, breaking US$2,950 per ounce on February 20 on the back of ever-increasing global turmoil, including tariff talks and tensions between Russia and Ukraine.
Even so, many market watchers believe gold's run isn't over.
“How much higher? It is hard to say, but a real all-time-high of just under US$3,500 is less than 35 percent higher than where we are today. That seems doable,” Lobo Tiggre, CEO of IndependentSpeculator.com, said at the end of 2024.

Investor Insight
GoldInxs Mining Corp. (TSXV:INXS, OTCQB: INXGF) provides investors with exposure to early-stage gold-copper exploration in British Columbia, leveraging a portfolio of high-potential projects in Tier 1 jurisdictions, within established gold districts, surrounded by strong regional infrastructure and led by an experienced management team committed to accelerating discovery and delivering shareholder value.

Overview
GoldInxs Mining Corp. is a discovery-focused mineral exploration company dedicated to identifying and advancing high-potential copper-gold assets in proven geological belts. The Company's strategy centers on acquiring overlooked and underexplored projects with large-scale potential, applying modern exploration techniques to rapidly evaluate targets and unlock shareholder value through discovery.
The Company’s. common shares started trading on the TSX Venture Exchange in July 2026 under the symbol INXS, positioning itself to capitalize on favorable copper and gold market fundamentals.

Copper demand is forecasted to grow steadily through 2030, with the global copper market expected to expand to over US$340 billion by 2030, driven by electric vehicles, renewable energy and infrastructure growth.
On the other hand, gold continues to provide a safe-haven hedge against policy risks and market volatility, making GoldInxs’ dual focus on copper and gold particularly compelling for investors.
The Company’s portfolio is anchored by two priority projects: the Fishpot Project in central British Columbia, interpreted as an emerging, large epithermal system with strong infrastructure access and jurisdiction quality as well as early indications of blackwater-style mineralization, and the non-core Millar Project in the prolific B.C Golden Triangle, a district renowned for world-class discoveries. While surrounding deposits attracted billions of dollars in investment, Fishpot received only sporadic historical exploration despite widespread hydrothermal alteration and numerous anomalous gold, silver and copper results. Artemis Gold’s Blackwater Mine has announced tripling production with an intended $1.56B investment, which sits only 65 km from the Fishpot property.
Backed by a management team with expertise in exploration, project development and capital markets, GoldInxs is positioned to rapidly advance its assets, deliver near-term exploration catalysts and create shareholder value through discovery and strategic growth.
Company Highlights
- Mining-friendly jurisdiction: Projects are in British Columbia, which ranked second in Canada and 20th globally in the 2025 Fraser Institute investment attractiveness rankings.
- Flagship and district-scale assets: Portfolio is anchored by the flagship Fishpot Project (“Fishpot”) in central B.C., showing strong geological indicators of mineralization, blackwater-style mineralization potential and immense exploration upside potential with only 378 meters of historical drilling. Fishpot is strategically located in the same region as Artemis Gold’s Blackwater Mine and Evolution Mining’s optioned Clisbako property.
- Clear path to 2026 catalysts: GoldInxs secured a drill permit for an upcoming maiden 2,000-metre drill program at Fishpot, near-term exploration programs are designed to define mineralized systems, outline blackwater-style potential and create shareholder value following the completion of a 3D IP survey and drill targeting.
Key Projects
Fishpot Project


The Fishpot Project represents the cornerstone asset within the GoldInxs portfolio. Covering up to 5,500 hectares in Central British Columbia, and located ~95 km north of Quesnel, Fishpot hosts a large hydrothermal alteration system that exhibits many of the geological characteristics observed in major epithermal and intrusion-related gold systems throughout the region. Fishpot encompasses five claim blocks, held under an option to acquire 100 percent subject to a 2 percent NSR, representing a significant exploration opportunity in a highly prospective region.
Fishpot represents a largely untested hydrothermal mineral system where multiple independent exploration datasets, including gold-silver-copper surface geochemistry, alteration and geology, airborne magnetics, 3D IP chargeability/resistivity and identified epithermal-to-potential-porphyry target environments, are converging to define drill targets, despite only 378 metres of historical drilling across two holes.
Fishpot is situated within the highly prospective Stikine Terrane and is underlain by Hazelton Group volcanic rocks and intrusive units comparable to those associated with several significant deposits in British Columbia. Extensive quartz-sericite alteration, hydrothermal brecciation, pyrite mineralization and multi-element geochemical anomalies support the interpretation of a robust mineralizing system. Fishpot is strategically positioned near active and historical mining operations, including Artemis Gold’s Blackwater Deposit, Newton Gold Project, Capoose and 3Ts Project, underscoring its large-scale discovery potential. Importantly, based on early-exploration results, Fishpot shares several regional geological characteristics commonly associated with Blackwater-style gold systems, including felsic volcanics, strong alteration, pyrite-rich mineralization and gold-silver geochemical associations. Despite the similarities the Company cannot yet make any formal connections to the surrounding properties, nor can they guarantee that such deposits exist on their ground.
Fishpot Exploration Technology: GoldInxs advanced its Fishpot targeting program by combining a conventional 3D IP survey with emerging Virtual DRILL™ remote-sensing technology as an additional targeting layer, using multiple geological, geochemical and geophysical datasets to refine and prioritize targets ahead of a planned ~2,000-metre drill program.
Fishpot Drill Permit & Expansion: GoldInxs has received the required drilling permits and expanded Fishpot to 5,509 hectares, positioning the Company to proceed with its inaugural ~2,000-metre modern drill program on a property that has seen very limited historical drilling, while refining targets through integrated geological, geochemical and geophysical data.
Despite multiple encouraging exploration indicators, Fishpot has been subjected to only two historic drill holes totaling 378 metres, leaving the broader mineral system largely untested and providing significant leverage to future exploration success.
Recent exploration completed by GoldInxs generated the highest reported gold value on Fishpot to date, returning up to 5.65 g/t Au from surface sampling, while airborne geophysical surveys identified multiple coincident magnetic and geochemical anomalies that have strengthened the Company's exploration model and target pipeline.
The 2025 program returned rock samples of up to 5.65 g/t Au, 11.35 g/t Ag and 0.42% Cu, while historical work reportedly returned up to 4.36 g/t Au and 3.2% Cu.
The property exhibits the potential low-sulphidation epithermal targets at Fishpot North, intermediate-sulphidation signatures at Fishpot East, and a large central magnetic high being evaluated for potential porphyry mineralization at depth. The Company is focused on finalizing drill targeting and preparing for the inaugural diamond drill campaign at Fishpot in the coming months following completion of the IP survey. GoldInxs is preparing to drill-test a 5,509-hectare, largely undrilled hydrothermal system in central British Columbia where high-grade surface gold-silver-copper results, Blackwater-style geological characteristics and multiple coincident geophysical targets have converged to define a portfolio of high-priority exploration targets.
