What is Tether Gold (XAUT)?

Tether Gold, identified by the token symbol XAUT, is a digital asset that provides users with ownership of physical gold through blockchain technology. Launched in 2020 by TG Commodities, a subsidiary of the company behind the widely used USDT stablecoin, the project aims to bridge the gap between traditional precious metal investment and the digital economy. The core mechanism of the project involves tokenizing physical gold. Each token represents ownership of one troy fine ounce of gold that meets the London Good Delivery standard. This gold is stored in highly secure vaults located in Switzerland. Unlike some other gold-linked assets that only track the price of the metal, this project provides direct ownership of specific, identifiable gold bars. Token holders can even verify the details of the gold backing their tokens, such as the serial number, purity, and weight, through a lookup tool provided by the issuer. Technically, the asset is issued as a smart contract on multiple blockchain networks, including Ethereum and TRON. This allows the tokens to be easily transferred, traded, and integrated into various decentralized finance applications. The use of blockchain technology enables fractional ownership, meaning users can hold or transfer tiny fractions of a gold ounce, which is difficult to achieve with physical bars. A key feature of the project is its redemption process. While the tokens are primarily traded digitally, eligible holders have the option to redeem their tokens for physical gold bars. This process is generally subject to a minimum redemption amount and involves delivery within Switzerland or the option for the issuer to sell the gold and provide the proceeds. The project is designed to offer the stability and historical value preservation of gold without the logistical burdens of physical storage, insurance, and transportation. By removing custody fees and allowing for twenty-four-seven trading on global exchanges, it provides a more accessible way for individuals to incorporate gold into their digital portfolios. Transparency is maintained through regular reports and the ability for users to track their specific gold allocation on the blockchain. Learn more

Tether Gold (XAUT) FAQ

XAU₮ is a digital token that represents direct ownership of one fine troy ounce of physical gold on a specific gold bar. It is issued by TG Commodities Limited, a subsidiary of Tether. Functioning as a commodity-backed stablecoin, its value is directly pegged to the price of gold, fluctuating with the global gold market rather than fiat currencies. This design bridges physical bullion with blockchain technology, offering a digital way to hold gold.
Tether provides a dedicated Look-up Tool on its official website. By inputting your blockchain address (Ethereum or Tron), you can view specific details, including the serial number, purity, and exact weight of the gold bar(s) associated with your XAU₮ holdings. The physical gold itself is stored in high-security vaults located in Switzerland, and the bars adhere to the "London Good Delivery" standard set by the London Bullion Market Association (LBMA).
Yes, Tether regularly publishes periodic attestation reports, typically on a quarterly basis, from independent accounting firms. These reports verify that the amount of physical gold held in the vaults matches the total number of XAU₮ tokens in circulation. Furthermore, the project is licensed and operates under the regulatory framework of El Salvador, adding another layer of oversight to its operations.
There are two primary ways to acquire XAU₮. Investors can purchase directly from Tether, although this requires a minimum purchase of 50 XAU₮ and full Know Your Customer (KYC) verification. Alternatively, for most retail users, XAU₮ is readily available on leading crypto exchanges. On these platforms, there is no minimum purchase requirement, allowing users to buy fractions of a fine troy ounce, down to very small denominations.
Yes, XAU₮ can be redeemed for physical gold, but high thresholds apply, typically requiring enough tokens for one full gold bar (around 400–430 ounces). If you don't meet this, you can opt for the gold to be sold in the Swiss market for cash, less fees. Regarding fees, there are no ongoing custody fees. A one-time 0.25% fee applies for issuance or redemption directly through Tether. Standard blockchain network gas fees also apply for transfers.
Key risks include counterparty risk, which involves trusting Tether to manage the gold vaults and honor redemptions as promised. There's also market risk, as the value of XAU₮ fluctuates with the volatile global price of gold. Regulatory risk is another factor, particularly as U.S. persons are currently prohibited from purchasing or redeeming XAU₮ directly from Tether. Additionally, general blockchain operational risks apply to the underlying technology.
