LD2 Launches a True Asset-Backed Cryptocurrency, Continuing the Liberty Dollar Legacy

    BOSTON, MA, June 20, 2018 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Long before Bitcoin, back in 1998, Bernard von NotHaus developed the asset-backed 
Liberty Dollar (LD) into the most successful alternative/digital currency, behind only the US Dollar. This resulted in over $50 million dollars of gold and silver-backed currency entering circulation and ultimately three federal convictions of counterfeiting as "current money". Instead of life in prison, he served a short probation with house arrest and eventually the federal judge forced the FBI to return virtually all of the seized $7 million in silver to their rightful owners. After that almost ten-year legal saga, Bernard von NotHaus was a free citizen in December 2015.

LD2 is a cryptocurrency poised to bring old-school, value-based monetary principles to modern-day cryptocurrencies. Developed by Bernard's son, Extra von NotHaus, and a Currency Officer of LD, Steven Brendtro, LD2 mirrors the original Liberty Dollar in that every digital token is backed by real, physical, precious metals. Custom minted one troy ounce silver LD2 coins are stored in a secure vault, backing up every single digital LD2 token issued. According to co-founder Extra von NotHaus, "LD2 is reimagining my father's very successful concept of an asset-backed currency by bringing it into the modern technological paradigm of blockchain, which significantly improves the functionality and utility." All digital tokens issued by LD2 can be redeemed for the actual minted silver coins with true market value. Enhancing the versatility and usefulness of LD2 is its integration of the Ethereum blockchain technology, making it easy for existing cryptocurrency users to jump on board. Unlike the more common security-based Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs) that are in the news almost everyday, these are actual hard, physical assets, tokenized on the Ethereum blockchain. This innovative precious-metal-backed cryptocurrency is being released in these two initial phases:

- LD2.zero is currently offering 10,000 digital tokens backed by a stunning one troy ounce 
.999 fine silver 20th Anniversary Liberty Dollar commemorative coin
- LD2.silver will be an open-ended issuance of silver-backed LD2 digital tokens

As LD2.zero has already been launched, LD2 is now looking for mainstream media coverage in print and online, to share the legacy of Bernard von NotHaus and the Liberty Dollar as LD2. Strategic partnerships and direct investments are also being sought. Please send all media inquiries and/or business proposals to [email protected]

LD2 LLC developed an asset-backed cryptocurrency, LD2, that facilitates vaulted, physical ownership of redeemable precious metals and real-time trading of those assets. LD2 aims to function as a "stablecoin" – a globally liquid, value-stable, low-volatility, cryptocurrency, without a central bank, 100% backed and redeemable by precious metals.
