XAUT Remains Firm at $5,161 AS The Digital Gold Enters The Top 10 Perpetual Trading Pairs On Binance

The XAUT coin continues to experience significant milestones, as recently the asset officially entered the top 10 perpetual trading pairs on the Binance cryptocurrency exchange, according to a revelation disclosed today by market analyst CryptoQuant.

Tether Gold (XAUT) is a digital gold, launched and managed by Tether (the operator of the USDT stablecoin). The commodity-backed stablecoin operates in the DeFi market to provide ownership of physical gold through blockchain technology, allowing global investors to hold and trade gold in a completely digital form. Since its launch in 2020, XAUT continues to record growth as the demand for a digital gold alternative is rising amid macroeconomic uncertainty and fiats decreasing purchasing power.
