What does Toto Finance offer industrial copper buyers? CuTT, Toto Finance's flagship product, is designed to let US industrial buyers purchase physical copper online in any quantity of pounds, settle in supported US dollar stablecoins, hold the metal as COMEX Grade 1 cathode in a COMEX-approved US warehouse, and redeem it in standardized 25,000-pound lots when it is needed. Each CuTT represents one pound of copper. The product is in development.

Copper Has Become a Procurement Risk

For most of the last decade, copper was a line item. It is now a supply question.

  • Import dependence is rising. The United States relied on imports for an estimated 57 percent of its refined copper consumption in 2025, up from 45 percent in 2024, and refined imports almost doubled to about 1.7 million tonnes [1].
  • Demand is concentrating in the same projects. S&P Global estimates that a high-intensity AI training facility uses about 44 tonnes of copper per megawatt, so a one-gigawatt campus implies roughly 44,000 tonnes [2]. Grid expansion, electrification and defense draw on the same metal.
  • New supply is slow. Copper mines that started production between 2020 and 2023 took 17.9 years on average from discovery to first output [3]. The Copper Crunch sets out the supply and demand data.

Who We Serve

  • AI data center developers and hyperscalers. Busbars, power distribution, cabling, transformers, switchgear and cooling systems, sized in megawatts and built on tight schedules.
  • Utilities and grid operators. Transmission and distribution cable, transformers and substations for load growth and interconnection.
  • Energy companies and renewable developers. Generation, storage and interconnection projects that depend on copper wiring and equipment.
  • Wire, cable and rod mills and electrical equipment manufacturers. Producers for whom cathode is the primary input and a working capital line.
  • Defense and advanced manufacturing. Programs that need domestically held, documented supply.

How CuTT Works for Procurement

  1. Buy onlinePurchase CuTT through the dedicated Toto Finance Investor Portal in any quantity of pounds.
  2. Settle in stablecoinsPay in supported US dollar stablecoins and receive the corresponding tokens in the same transaction.
  3. Hold copper in the United StatesThe metal behind the tokens is designed to be held as COMEX Grade 1 cathode in a COMEX-approved US warehouse, insured and reconciled against token supply.
  4. Redeem when you need metalRequest physical redemption through the redemption portal in multiples of 25,000 pounds, the standard COMEX lot size. Redeemed tokens are burned.
  5. Resell what you do not needSurplus CuTT can be transferred or sold on-chain instead of being stored or resold through a broker.

Hold the Copper, Not Only the Hedge

Futures protect against price moves; they do not put metal in a warehouse for you, and most positions are closed or rolled before delivery. CuTT is designed to hold the copper itself in the United States, in a standardized, exchange-recognized grade, with ownership recorded on-chain. It complements existing supply contracts with mills and traders rather than replacing them, and a fully paid token position carries no margin calls. Copper price risk remains with the holder.

Status

CuTT is in development, and redemption terms, procedures and fees will be set out in the product documentation. Toto Finance does not guarantee availability, delivery dates or prices. Request access to discuss your copper requirements and be notified at launch.
