Each Coin or Bar contains the same value of diamonds, audited and authenticated on the blockchain, and represented by a digital token stored inside the commodity.

How You’re Taxed
Diamond Standard's diamond commodities and tokens can be subject to both capital gains and income tax, with the exact rate depending on the taxpayer's country of residence, personal income tax bracket, and whether or not the investment is held in a tax-advantaged account.
Diamond Standard does not provide any tax documentation, so contact your accountant at the end of each tax year to learn how to file your tax returns.
Investors are not expected to trigger a taxable event until one of their diamond coins, bars, or tokens is sold at a profit. Diamond commodities do, however, trigger a taxable event as soon as they generate income.
Investments held for longer than a year benefit from long-term capital gains tax—taxed at a much lower rate than ordinary income.
Federal, state, and local taxes also affect the total tax burden associated with the investment. For more clarity, consult with an advisor before making an investment.
