For thousands of years, gold has been the asset people reach for to store real, lasting value. The hard part has always been the metal itself: vaults, dealers, insurance, and bullion you cannot exactly carry through an airport or post to a friend. Tether Gold (XAUt) changes that. It is real physical gold turned into a token, one troy ounce of vaulted Swiss gold each, and in Zypto App you can hold that gold on your phone and put it to use like any other crypto asset.
Gold You Can Hold in Your Own Wallet
XAUt is not a dollar stablecoin. Each token represents one ounce of real gold held in a Swiss vault, and its value moves with the gold price. The difference from owning bullion yourself is that there is nothing to store or insure: Tether looks after the metal, and you hold the token in your own self-custodial wallet, where only your keys can move it. It is gold ownership without the safe in the wall.
Send and Swap Gold in Minutes
This is where tokenised gold pulls ahead of the real thing. You cannot email a gold bar. With XAUt you can send gold to any compatible wallet in minutes, at any hour, anywhere in the world. And because XAUt trades freely, you can swap it into or out of thousands of other assets in a few taps, realising your gold’s value at any time and in any amount, with no dealer and no waiting.
Choose Your Chain: Ethereum or BNB Chain
In Zypto App, XAUt is supported on Ethereum and BNB Chain. Hold your gold on the network that suits you, manage it alongside thousands of other assets in one place, and move between chains without leaving the app.
Buy It Easily, Protect It Properly
Buying XAUt takes minutes, with over 130 global payment methods, and you can check the live Tether Gold price before you do. Once it is yours, protection is on your terms: your keys stay on your device, and for cold storage you can pair Zypto App with the Vault Key Card, an NFC cold wallet that signs with a tap and 3FA. Vaulted gold, self-custodied token, cold-storage backup: three layers working together.
