[PRESS RELEASE \u2013 Johannesburg, South Africa, March 11th, 2026]<\/strong><\/p>\n

VALR, the largest crypto exchange in South Africa by trade volume, today announced the launch of its newest Crypto Bundle, the VALR Bitcoin and Gold Bundle (BITGOLD). This bundle provides investors with simplified exposure to both Bitcoin and tokenised gold (XAUT) in a single, balanced product.<\/p>\n

Crypto Bundles on VALR are designed to offer diversified exposure to various crypto and real-world assets. They consist of selected assets with allocations that are rebalanced regularly according to the bundle\u2019s methodology. This approach delivers a low-maintenance investment experience, as holdings are automatically adjusted to maintain target weights without requiring active trading from users. Rebalancing occurs monthly for the BITGOLD bundle.<\/p>\n

The VALR Bitcoin and Gold Bundle combines Bitcoin\u2019s potential for significant upside with gold\u2019s established role as a safe-haven asset. Bitcoin, often viewed as digital innovation in finance, has shown strong long-term growth despite volatility. Over the past five years, Bitcoin has delivered substantial returns in many periods, though it has experienced sharp corrections, reflecting its asymmetric risk-reward profile amid growing institutional adoption and market maturation.<\/p>\n

Gold, in contrast, has a centuries-old reputation for preserving value during times of uncertainty, inflation, and currency debasement. In recent years, gold prices have risen steadily, with notable gains driven by geopolitical tensions and macroeconomic factors. From early 2021 levels around $1,800 per ounce, gold has appreciated significantly, reaching over $5,000 in recent months.<\/p>\n

By allocating equally to Bitcoin and tokenised gold, VALR\u2019s BITGOLD bundle seeks to balance these characteristics. This combination allows investors to gain exposure to two assets that have historically performed differently in response to inflation, global uncertainty, and currency challenges.<\/p>\n

\u201cInvestors increasingly seek ways to hedge against uncertainty while capturing innovation in digital assets,\u201d said VALR\u2019s Co-Founder and CEO, Farzam Ehsani. \u201cThe BITGOLD bundle simplifies this by merging Bitcoin\u2019s growth potential with gold\u2019s store of value track record over several millenia. \u201d<\/p>\n
