Top Perks of Investing in Regulator-Approved Commodity Diamonds

Diamonds, as a market-traded asset, offer access to a valuable natural resource valued at $1.2 trillion, providing diversification, inflation protection, and a store of wealth for institutional and individual investors.

The natural gemstone market is projected to experience a 10% CAGR over the next five years, outperforming the long-term CAGR of roughly 7.2% for the S&P index.

Diamond prices exhibit stable behavior compared to the stock market, equities, and other commodities, making them a relatively consistent investment option.

Regulated Diamond is highly liquid, meaning users can exit their positions quickly and with minimal price impact.

Overview

With a market value of $1.2 trillion, diamonds outshine silver and platinum combined, and the market size is projected to grow at a steady 4.4% CAGR by 2030.

 

Diamond Standard has created a regulated and fungible diamond commodity in the form of physical Coins or Bars, making it easy for anyone to invest in diamonds. 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. 

 

Investors can make money by buying these Coins and Bars and potentially selling them at a higher price on the Diamond Standard peer-to-peer spot market or leasing them back to Diamond Standard to earn interest.

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.
