Tether’s $770M XAUT Backed by 7.7 Tons of Gold in Swiss Vault, Says Company

Tether just flexed its gold reserves—literally. The stablecoin giant confirmed its XAUT token is backed by 7.7 metric tons of gold, stored in Switzerland. That’s $770 million worth of shiny, old-school security for a digital asset.

Why vaults instead of algorithms? Because even crypto’s biggest players know: when markets crash, investors want something heavier than promises.

Bonus jab: Guess Wall Street’s ‘secure’ ETFs still can’t match the auditable heft of a crypto-backed vault. Irony tastes like gold.
