Tether has $770 Million in Physical Gold Bullion for XAUT Token, Stored in Swiss Vaults

Tether announced that it holds $770 million in physical gold bullion, backing up its Tether Gold stablecoin (XAUT). Tether owns several stablecoins, including USDT. XAUT, Tether’s gold stablecoin, was released in 2020 and is pegged to one ounce of physical gold. When traders buy XAUT, their tokens are backed by gold bullion stored in Swiss vaults. The gold price, meanwhile, has hit record highs of $3.5k in recent weeks. Tether announced on its website that its gold token, XAUT, which is backed one-to-one with gold in Switzerland, is showing significant growth. As of April 28, the token had a gold backing of 7.7 tons, a price of $3,100, and a market capitalization of $770 million. The increase in value, according to Tether, is a result of global economic tensions and a tradition of using gold as a reliable store of value. There are many gold tokens on the market, but XAUT has met various standards of compliance and transparency. The rise in interest in gold has been a global phenomenon, with a particular interest from BRICS nations in acquiring the precious metal. Tether concluded its announcement by saying that it aims to provide access to its gold token while continuing to educate the public about Bitcoin. XAUT is the highest market cap stablecoin of gold, with each token representing one ounce of London bullion. The tokens are backed one-to-one with physical gold in Swiss vaults, which are stored to high standards of compliance. The Swiss standards include regular audits and certificates of issues so that the one-to-one relationship between Tether’s token and the gold vaults is transparent and accurate. The measurement of gold, one ounce from the London Bullion Market Association (LBMA), is a certified standard often used as a reliable and valid measure of gold value. Tether believes that the surge in gold trading is a result of traders seeking assets that are inflation-resistant. Many traders have noticed something strange happening with gold. Time will tell what happens with the markets and whether gold proves to be a safe haven from international conflicts and economic crises. BRICS nations have been accumulating gold at a rapid rate. Bitcoin has been compared to a digital form of gold, due to its inflation-resistant properties. According to the World Gold Council, central banks bought 1044.6 metric tons of gold in 2024. Tether made the latest announcement because it wishes to promote the XAUT gold token as a reliable digital form of gold. This announcement comes as investors are taking a serious look at gold, gold stocks, and gold royalty companies. The latter is a preferred method for many investors to make money from the increase in gold’s price. The availability of one-to-one tethered gold reserves may be an attractive option for traders who wish to get in on the gold rush before missing out on the potential rise. Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino said the company aimed to provide customers with the security of gold through its stablecoin product.
