As traditional gold markets heat up, crypto investors are following suit\u2014flocking to tokenized versions of the precious metal <\/a>that offer both price exposure and digital flexibility.<\/p>\n

Gold-backed cryptocurrencies like Paxos Gold (PAXG) and Tether Gold (XAUT) have risen 24.15% and 23.7% respectively year-to-date to new all-time highs above $3,300, roughly matching the performance of spot gold. Their prices have since receded slightly to $3,265 and $3,244, respectively.<\/p>\n

While gold-backed cryptocurrencies surged so far this year, the wider cryptocurrency market has been in a downtrend. Bitcoin (BTC<\/a>) has lost more than 11% of its value so far this year, while the wider crypto market has fallen by a little over 30%, based on the CoinDesk 20 (CD20<\/a>) index.<\/p>\n

The tokens, which are backed by physical gold and track its price, experienced a surge in value as investors sought refuge from the uncertainty induced by the escalating U.S.-China trade war.<\/p>\n

The move echoes a broader return to gold as a safe-haven asset. Inflows into gold ETFs hit 226.5 tonnes in the first quarter of 2025, the highest level since early 2022, according to data from the World Gold Council<\/a>. Nearly 60% of that demand came from North America.<\/p>\n

Similarly, gold-backed cryptocurrencies saw net token minting of over $42.7 million in the first quarter of the year, according to data from RWA.xyz<\/a>, helping along with gold\u2019s price appreciation raise their total market capitalization near $1.4 billion.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
