Tether Gold (XAUT) is a digital token that provides direct exposure to physical gold, with each token representing ownership of one troy fine ounce of gold tied to a specific gold bar. The token is available in two on-chain formats: as an ERC-20 token on the Ethereum blockchain and as a TRC-20 token on the TRON blockchain, allowing it to be transferred to any compatible on-chain address from a user's Tether wallet. A defining characteristic of XAUT is its structure as a tokenized real-world asset, sitting at the intersection of commodity-backed tokens and blockchain-based ownership. The underlying physical gold is held in a vault in Switzerland under Tether's direct control, with the project emphasizing security practices and anti-threat measures to safeguard the reserves. XAUT also distinguishes itself by not charging ongoing custody fees, a feature that sets it apart from comparable gold-backed token products. As part of the broader Tether ecosystem, XAUT is categorized within tokenized commodities, tokenized gold, and the wider real-world assets (RWA) movement, offering a blockchain-native way to hold ownership rights in physical gold.
