The New Gold Standard: A Fireside Chat with Glint's CEO
To anyone watching the video of the fireside chat from last week with Jason Cozens, our founder and CEO of Glint, hosted by Joe Endoso, the COO of Linqto, it would be clear that Glint is revolutionising the financial industry by unlocking the power of gold. The discussion was insightful, engaging, and full of enlightening moments that underscored the core proposition of Glint.
Glint is not just a fintech company; it's a movement that is democratising access to gold, one of the most reliable stores of value known to mankind and enabling gold as secure everyday money. The company allows clients to buy fractional ownership of physical gold, down to 1/1000th of a gram. This is not a token or a share in a fund, but direct ownership of gold.
"Gold is money, nothing else, as JP Morgan said”
Jason shared his journey from realising the inherent risks in the banking system during the 2008 financial crisis to creating a platform that allows everyone to have their own personal gold standard.
"I'm using this for my lunch, hiring a bicycle, my flights, my hotels, everything, I'm basically enabling everybody and myself to have their own personal gold standard."
The discussion also highlighted the problems Glint is solving. In a world where fiat currencies are constantly losing their value, Glint offers a way to store wealth that is not at risk of depreciation. As Cozens put it,
"We're using a form of money that becomes worthless over time. Why are we doing that?"
With Glint, you're not investing or speculating; you're simply storing your value in a medium that has proven its worth over thousands of years.
The genesis of Glint is rooted in a deep understanding of the financial system's flaws and a vision to provide a solution that empowers individuals. The company's growth, with 200,000 registered users, 44,000 monthly active clients and a low customer acquisition cost, is a testament to the value it offers.
In conclusion, the fireside chat with Jason Cozens was a deep dive into the philosophy and functionality of Glint. It was a journey through the past, present, and future of money, with gold as the constant, reliable store of value.

At Glint, we make every effort to demonstrate a balanced conversation between gold, crypto and fiat currencies when it comes to purchasing power and, while we strongly believe that gold is the fairest and most reliable currency on the planet, we need to point out that it isn’t 100% risk free. While we have seen a steady increase over time, the value of gold can fall, which means that its purchasing power can also decline.
