Tether Gold XAUT

What XAUT actually is on-chain

Tether Gold is an ERC-20 deployed on Ethereum, at contract address 0x68749665ff8d2d112fa859aa293f07a622782f38. That address, not the ticker XAUT, is what uniquely identifies this asset: anyone can deploy a second token calling itself XAUT, but the contract is unforgeable. Verify it against etherscan.io before sending funds or approving a spend.

Because it lives on Ethereum, XAUT is held in any EVM-compatible wallet, transfers are paid for in ETH rather than in XAUT itself, and secondary liquidity sits in Uniswap-style AMM pools. Two consequences follow for anyone setting alerts: you need ETH in the same wallet to move the token at all, and a quoted price taken from a pool is a pool price — it includes slippage that an order-book quote would not.

For XAUT the project publishes a whitepaper and an active account as @tethergold. That is a partial paper trail — enough to check claims against, not enough to audit. None of it is a quality judgement about the asset; it is simply what can be independently checked before the chart is worth looking at.

Where XAUT sits in the market

At #37, Tether Gold sits in the middle of the large-cap band. This is the part of the table capital rotates through first: when the leaders stall, money moves down into names like XAUT, and when risk comes off it leaves here before it leaves the top ten. Spot spreads stay tight through both legs of that cycle; derivative funding does not, and perp basis is usually the earlier signal.

CryptoPingAi is currently streaming 7 live XAUT order books (Binance, OKX, Bitget, Gate.io, HTX, Upbit…). That is coverage in line with a #37 ranking: enough books to cross-check a quote, few enough that one of them can dominate price formation for hours at a time. One of them is a Korean won market, so the Kimchi-premium spread between the KRW and USDT quote is visible on this page.

XAUT against its all-time high

XAUT sits 27.2% under its $5,505 peak (on 2026-01-29) — a normal correction inside a cycle rather than a regime change. 1.37x restores the record, which a single quarter of trend can deliver. What matters at this depth is the shape of the pullback: the band above spot holds recent buyers, and whether they add or exit on the first retest usually settles the next leg. That high was set about a year ago, recently enough that it still anchors how most current holders frame the asset.

XAUT across its historical range

The recorded range is comparatively narrow: 3.80x between $1,448 and $5,505. Either the price history is short, or the asset is designed not to move.

XAUT trades roughly 2.77x above its record low of $1,448 (on 2020-03-19). Recovery from the bottom has been limited, which means the low is still close enough to function as a real reference level rather than a historical footnote.

XAUT supply structure

XAUT has no hard cap. 592,399 XAUT of a 707,747 total is in circulation (83.7%), leaving 115,348 held back. That overhang is modest but real — worth checking the unlock calendar before treating float as fixed.

What kind of asset XAUT is

Tether Gold sits in the real-world-asset category, where the token is a claim on or a representation of something held off-chain. That makes the relevant risks custodial and regulatory rather than purely market-driven: attestation quality, the identity of the custodian and the legal enforceability of redemption matter more than the chart. RWA assets also tend to move on regulatory news cycles that have nothing to do with the broader crypto tape.

CoinGecko files XAUT under 6 categories, including Tokenized Assets, Tokenized Gold, Ethereum Ecosystem, Real World Assets (RWA), Tokenized Commodities. CoinGecko also records deployments on Ethereum (3,072 tracked tokens), so its on-chain liquidity and its user base move with that network.
