What it is
Tether Gold (XAUT) is a token where each unit represents one troy ounce of physical gold, issued by a company associated with Tether. Its price tracks the gold market.
How it works
The backing gold is held as physical bars in a vault in Switzerland, and each XAUT is a claim on a specific quantity of that metal, with holders able to look up the bar associated with their tokens.
Why it matters
XAUT offers gold exposure on a blockchain from a large issuer, an alternative to PAXG. As with PAXG, it is a specific tokenized claim on specific bars, not the abstract spot-gold market.

Honest risk note
XAUT carries gold price risk plus counterparty and custody risk tied to its issuer. It is not physical possession of gold, and redemption is subject to the issuer's terms.
