Confusing. Cumbersome to use at best. Little ability to move tokens on or off as well as expensive to use due to their affinity for Matic and Ethereum, both slow and expensive tokens to use. Looked to be a promising future and technology bridging blockchain and metals however I have little faith this will go anywhere at this point. Their initial tokens already have become obsolete and are either delisted or “not found” in wallets. Disappointed. ### 5/5 — Great app *2024-09-30* A must try lots of hidden gems ### 1/5 — Deposit not showing up *2023-12-07* Made a usdc deposit and nothing is showing up. Is this a scam? ### 2/5 — They messing up with exchange rates *2023-07-27, version 1.2.9* They really messing up with exchange rates . Buying for example 100$ worth coins but receiving only 50 of them.. and saying about minimal fees . They working with kind of exchange company. They taking some fees but im not was expected to get half what im payd for.. ### 5/5 — Aurus is amazing! *2023-04-11, version 1.2.5* Wallet is user friendly! ### 1/5 — Bait and Switch *2023-03-29* Created a wallet thinking I was going to be able to buy platinum. Buying platinum is all over their website. However, you can NOT buy platinum at all. Buyer beware. ### 1/5 — App no longer works *2022-10-24* After updating the app today, it no longer works. Specifically, the app freezes on a black screen after launching it. Please fix this ASAP! ### 5/5 — I’m a seriously impressed investor *2022-03-30, version 1.0.9* I’m not one for leaving review but this is a breakthrough in gold investing. I now hold gold and earn a yield through staking my holdings. Thanks Team Aurus for talking me through the process. Great customer service! ### 1/5 — Buggy and slow *2022-01-26, version 1.0.5* Doesn’t track the price of the underlying metals well either ### 5/5 — Really good *2021-12-09, version 1.0.0* Just what I’ve been waiting for. Amazing way to hold precious metals. ## Frequently asked questions about AURUS ### What cryptocurrencies can I manage with AURUS?
