What is Ultrafine Copper Powder? Ultrafine copper powder is pulverized copper of 99.999% copper purity and average particle size below 30 μm. Copper is the most used material in powder metallurgy and copper powder has a very wide field of application. Although there are cheaper copper powders with lower copper purity or relatively high particle sizes, when produced with a high purity level and a low particle size (ultrafine) it is much more expensive than copper cathodes due to the complex and cost intensive production process. The higher the purity and lower the particle size the more expensive the copper powder is.
frequently asked questions
Why Ultrafine Copper Powder?
Increasing demand for copper
Demand for Copper will increase with developing nations improving their infrastructure, with increasing electrification, usage of green power generation technology, and electronic vehicles.
Economic inflation hedge
Copper is known to be a much better inflation hedge than gold. According to a correlation analysis of total return commodity indexes compiled by Bloomberg, for every 1 per cent annual increase in the consumer price index since 1992 copper jumped almost 18 per cent, more than three times the 5.2 per cent gain logged by gold. The benefit that Ultrafine Copper Powder has over the raw material Copper Cathode is that it is significantly cheaper to store safely over a long period of time.
Inexpensive to hold long-term
Due to the size to value ratio you can store a lot of value on very little space making it the cheapest way to invest into copper for the long-term. The compact size to value proportions of the physical assets backing the UCP MBX token make it the cheapest form of investing into physical copper in terms of safe-keeping, making it specifically suitable for holding over a longer period of time without losing most of your profits on expenses (nor are there contract expiration dates). The underlying assets are kept in tax-free-zone storage in Switzerland.
A bet on High-Tech
Ultrafine Copper Powder is a high tech raw material used in rapidly growing advanced-technology industries that are now being boosted by consumer demand for a high-tech, connected and environmentally sustainable future! The copper powder backing the UCP MBX token is particularly useful for high-tech applications such as 3D Printing, miniature electronics, conductive fillers and pastes, and EMI-Shielding.

UCP MBX: tokenized ultrafine copper powder
Crypto-asset backed by ultrafine copper powder
Each UCP MBX token is backed by one gram of electrolytic ultrafine copper powder with copper purity above 99.999% and average particle size below 10 micrometers. It is kept in argon gas filled glas ampoules to preserve quality and is stored in a high-security free-zone warehouse in Switzerland 🇨🇭 (duty-free). Token holders can redeem the underlying assets in increments of the content per one ampoule (200g and 280g) at any time at a flat fee cost for unlimited number of ampoules directly from the warehouse in Switzerland. Until now only traded off-exchanges and physically, we make this special commodity as accessible as never before together with significantly improving price-finding and increasing market efficiency, transparency, and liquidity.
