Tether Gold breaks the 2 billion mark: A new gold standard!
On October 30, 2025, Tether Gold (XAUT), a digital asset backed by physical gold reserves, reached a notable milestone. According to dailyhodl.com, Tether Gold's market value exceeded the $2 billion mark. This happened in an impressive period, as the market value was at $1.44 billion at the beginning of the fourth quarter and rose to almost $2.1 billion in just a week.
Tether Gold is owned by TG Commodities S.A. de C.V. administered in El Salvador. As reported on dailyhodl.com, XAUT holds a total of 375,572,297 troy ounces of physical gold as of September 30, 2025. This strong base makes it attractive to investors interested in the stability of physical assets.
Increasing demand for gold
The demand for gold as an asset class has increased significantly recently due to various factors. On October 17, 2025, gold prices reached $4.379 per troy ounce, driven in part by inflation and geopolitical tensions. However, at the time of publication, the price of gold fell to $3,952, still up 3.10% in the last month and a notable increase of 42.42% year-to-date.
Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino also commented on the development of Tether Gold, stating that the project demonstrates the viability of real-world assets based on blockchain technology. This highlights the trend of increasingly digitally transforming traditional assets and making them accessible to a broader investor base.
Transparency and reserves
Tether Gold currently has 375,572,247 tokens in circulation, backed on a 1:1 basis with over 11.6 tonnes of gold in Switzerland under London Good Delivery Standards. This transparency and security provides investors with confidence in the digital asset backed by physical gold.
By reaching this historic market, Tether Gold shows that digital assets and traditional resources can coexist harmoniously. Tether thus remains at the forefront of innovative developments in the field of digital finance and assets.
