“The path through which our spirit went through, to manifest itself in the material world.” — Unknown

In the beginning of it all, spirit floated through space in dark infinity.

On day one, the spirit expands its consciousness and creates a sphere around itself.

On day two, it creates another sphere with the same radius. The geometry between the two spheres, the Vesica Piscis, holds information about width, depth, and proportion. More importantly, it contains geometrical information about light.

The spirit continued its cycle for seven days, until finally, from the void the seed of life was born.

Light and dark orbited in a cosmic dance for eons. Their infatuation with one another resulted in the birth of the sun and the moon, and the seed of creation was awakened.

The heavens boomed with life. Matter manifested into form. Time had begun.

The labyrinth then appeared to humble time’s influence. Walking down the maze, one would lose the connection between linear time and direction with two points. Losing reference to the outside world it was believed one could find their path in life.

The myst of creation continued to settle. The seven planets, continents, seas, and chakras appeared. Life began to teem in our oceans, take flight in our skies, and peruse our lands.

As inhabitants of Earth, a quest was given to us. We were to remember the magic that dwells within our consciousness, for after death and rebirth every soul must once again pass the planetary tests.

Our journey began and we entered a state of mastery. The birth of alchemy, the euphoria of knowledge, and creation of artifacts. But this mastery now gave us something to protect. Protection morphed into greed, lust, and wars. The gifts that had once been freely given to us were lost. The brilliance of light disappeared.

LOGOS, the word of god, descended as the principle of reason and judgment to restore balance on Earth.

This is our story. We are LOGOS, a jewelry gold brand seeking to restore balance and order. We are creating a decentralized system of exchange for future generations and removing gold’s harmful influence on the planet.

We are the essence of immortality manifested into form.

We are the new gold standard.

Gold’s Sacred Properties

For nearly 6,000 years, this cosmic element has been a common thread for humankind.

Gold’s natural beauty makes it mysteriously precious and one of the most useful metals in the world. It does not tarnish or oxidize. It is extremely malleable.

Used as a form of trust and currency since the dawn of man, this rare element has been a pillar in shaping humanity’s economy, ecology, and cultural heritage. Now, through blockchain organization and collectibility, the history of gold will echo for a new eternity.

Merging Ancient Technology With the Blockchain

LOGOS gold is a fusion between modern blockchain and primordial tradition.

Melding and learning from the past, LOGOS uses hyper-advanced, eco-friendly methods of gold extraction that praises this precious mineral like the ancient ones before us.

Today, nearly all industrial processes use sulphuric acid to refine gold and the majority of gold in the market today is from mines that use practices that are harmful to the planet.

LOGOS has a one-of-a-kind patent-pending process in which we refine our gold and create our own unique proprietary blends. Never using harsh chemicals, large-scale mining, or sulphuric acid but instead replicating the methods used by the Egyptians.

Ditching the karat system, and sticking to what makes more sense for verification and provenance, we have developed a trusted system to understand the purity of gold. We set and mark each coin appropriately with its properties and values.

What makes LOGOS gold unique is its participation with blockchain technology. All of our gold is connected to the blockchain and doubles as a rare NFT. With each purchase of LOGOS, one will be able to buy and stake coins and tablets, as well as forge the NFTs into gold bars.

LOGOS is the intersection between jewelry, tradition, and the future. It is a form of art mixed with the blockchain.

It is the highest potential of what gold can be.

Where We Strayed Away

LOGOS was created to emulate the virtues of balance and harmony while existing in modern technologies.

To understand where we’ve lost this harmony we must understand there is a love story, a strong duality between gold and silver. Unbeknownst to common knowledge, gold is incomplete without silver. Electrum, an alloy of gold, holds approximately 80% gold mixed with 20% silver.

Gold is unbalanced, not just in its chemical composition, but in its relationship with the Earth. The illicit mining of gold in South America is largely unsustainable and harmful to the environment.

In south-eastern Peru, small-scale illegal gold miners are endangering the ecosystem. To harvest gold these miners must use mercury to recover tidbits of gold that are mixed in soil and sediments.

Mercury is a naturally occurring element. But when used in mass production, it has harmful consequences. With 15–40 million people working in the illicit industry, it is estimated that 300 million metric tons of mercury has been infused into the Amazon rainforest. It contaminates bodies of water, and subsequently fish and shellfish. Gold mining is now a leading cause of deforestation.

Despite gold’s precious, pure, and sacred origins, it has morphed into a source of adventitious misery.

LOGOS was created to restore this imbalance.

The Mining of LOGOS Gold

The mines where LOGOS gold originates from have some of the highest regulations in the world. The mine’s permits financially contribute to ecological conservation, with the miners having a genuine passion towards the environment.

It is sustainably sourced and an eco conscious alternative. When creating LOGOS, Obtainable wanted consumers to know exactly where their gold was coming from. LOGOS is to be a source that reveals the truth, rather than fabricating an elegant falsity.

DROP MECHANICS

Within the crucibles of LOGOS only pinnacle forms of perfection are allowed to leave.

The drop begins with a Limited Edition Series of 777 LOGOS Coins: Mint 001. It will contain eleven (11) 1-of-1 coins, specifically Mint 001 #556 through #566. The rest of the Limited Edition Series of 777 LOGOS Coins will be made available during future drops, as well as bundles of 111 coins.

Mint 001 tells the story of Sumeria, one of the first civilizations of the world that emerged upon the flood plain of the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers in 4000 B.C. “Sumer” translates to “the land of civilized kings.”

Each piece of gold has multiple steps of verification. It’s encrypted into the blockchain to create a decentralized system of exchange for the next generations. In the future, this type of technology will be the main system of exchange for precious earth metals and minerals.

Each purchase will include access to a community of like-minded individuals who inhabit the blockchain. Most critically, LOGOS is a purchasing decision which has a positive impact on the planet and restores balance to a forgotten past.

Bless ⚔️
