XAUt0

Introduction

Tether Gold tokens (XAUt) represents ownership of one troy ounce of physical gold held in a Swiss vault, combining the stability of precious metals with the utility of digital assets. It has become a trusted store of value for individuals and institutions seeking the security of gold without the burdens of physical custody. However, as the blockchain ecosystem expands, the movement of XAUT across chains remains disjointed and dependent on inconsistent bridging solutions, fragmented liquidity, and opaque backend processes that limit usability and access.

XAUt0 solves this. Powered by LayerZero’s Omnichain Fungible Token (OFT) standard, XAUt0 brings seamless interoperability to Tether Gold, enabling unified movement across blockchains without altering the underlying asset. There are no wrapped tokens or synthetic derivatives—just real, vaulted gold, made digitally portable.

XAUt0 is not a new version of XAUT. It is its omnichain evolution—unlocking capital-efficient cross-chain transfers and enabling gold to flow freely across the most widely used blockchains through a native, permissionless liquidity mesh.
