About Tether Gold
Tether Gold is a token backed by physical gold held in Switzerland, issued by TG Commodities, part of the Tether group. Each XAUT represents ownership of one fine troy ounce on a London Good Delivery bar.
How Tether Gold Works
Each token is tied to a specific allocated bar held in a Swiss vault, and holders can look up the serial number and purity of the gold behind their position. The token is divisible to very small fractions, so exposure can be held in amounts far below a full bar, and larger holders can arrange physical redemption.
The History of Tether Gold
XAUT launched in 2020 from the same group behind the largest dollar stablecoin, extending the model to a commodity. It has grown into one of the two dominant tokenized gold products alongside PAX Gold, with reserve reports published periodically.
What XAUT Is Used For
XAUT is used to hold gold exposure that settles in minutes and moves freely across blockchains. It is used as a hedge against crypto volatility, as collateral, and as a way to hold a traditional store of value without leaving the on-chain environment.

Why buy Tether Gold with YouHodler? +
YouHodler combines advanced security and encryption with a simple way to buy and sell XAUT, fast crypto transactions, support for multiple fiat currencies, and a platform that works for newcomers and experienced traders alike.
Is Tether Gold a good investment? +
XAUT tracks the gold price, so it behaves very differently from most crypto assets and is typically used to reduce portfolio volatility. It carries custody and issuer risk concentrated in the Tether group, whose disclosure practices have long been debated, and gold itself can fall in value.
Can I buy Tether Gold today and sell it tomorrow? +
Yes. YouHodler supports selling as well as buying, so you can acquire XAUT and later exchange it for fiat currencies such as USD or EUR. Transactions settle quickly, major fiat currencies are supported, and withdrawals go out by bank transfer.
Is it safe to buy Tether Gold? +
Buying XAUT is generally safe on a reliable platform like YouHodler, which applies data encryption, identity verification and multi-layer account protection. The asset itself stays highly volatile, so prices can move sharply over short periods.
How do I convert Tether Gold to cash? +
Connect a bank account, debit card or credit card to your YouHodler profile, exchange your XAUT for a fiat currency such as USD or EUR, then withdraw the balance straight to your bank.
How much is $100 worth of Tether Gold right now? +
