How to convert Ethereum to Tether Gold

The widget above is already set to ETH on Ethereum → XAUT on Ethereum. The whole swap runs in one flow through NEAR Intents:

Step 1: Choose how to pay
Connect any EVM wallet such as MetaMask or Rabby that holds your ETH. Or turn on Swap from external wallet to get a deposit address and QR code you can pay from any wallet or exchange; you then add an address on Ethereum for refunds.

Step 2: Enter the amount and where to receive
Type how much ETH to swap and the Ethereum address that receives the XAUT, from any EVM wallet such as MetaMask or Rabby. The widget shows how much XAUT you will receive, fees included, before you confirm.

Step 3: Confirm and send
Approve the transfer in your wallet, or send the amount to the deposit address. Once it confirms on Ethereum, solvers fill the swap and the XAUT is sent to your address on Ethereum. If the swap can't be filled, your ETH is refunded.

Prefer to keep a balance inside NEAR Intents? The Deposit tab adds ETH to it, Swap trades within it, and Withdraw sends tokens out to their own networks.

⚠ Important: receive on an address you control. If you send the XAUT to an exchange instead, check that it accepts XAUT on Ethereum: some exchanges don't credit deposits that come from a smart contract.

About the ETH → XAUT swap

ETH and XAUT both live on Ethereum, so you pay and receive on the same network. NEAR Intents still routes the trade through its solver network, which means you get a competitive quote without picking a DEX or an aggregator yourself.

XAUT is a tokenized version of another asset, so its price tracks its underlying rather than ETH. Swapping between ETH and XAUT changes both your exposure and the network your funds live on.

About Ethereum and Tether Gold

What is Ethereum (ETH)?

Ether (ETH) powers Ethereum, a programmable blockchain proposed by Vitalik Buterin in 2013 and launched in July 2015 by a group of co-founders. Rather than acting only as money, Ethereum runs smart contracts, which let developers deploy applications that execute exactly as written.

How Ethereum works

Since the Merge in September 2022, Ethereum has been secured by Proof of Stake: validators lock up ETH, propose and attest to blocks, and can lose part of their stake for misbehaviour. Every operation on the network costs gas, paid in ETH: the base fee is burned, while validators receive a priority fee for including transactions.

What ETH is used for

ETH pays for transaction fees and is widely used as collateral in decentralized finance, from lending protocols to decentralized exchanges. Holders also stake it to help secure the network and earn protocol rewards.

ETH supply

Ether has no fixed maximum supply. New ETH is issued to validators, while the base fee of every transaction is burned under EIP-1559, so net supply can rise or fall depending on network activity.

Before you swap ETH

Make sure your withdrawal goes to an address on Ethereum mainnet and not to a layer-2 or another EVM network that uses the same address format. Gas prices on Ethereum fluctuate with demand, which can affect the cost of moving ETH in or out.

What is Tether Gold (XAUT)?

Tether Gold, written XAU₮ by its issuer, is a gold-backed token from the group behind USDT, launched in January 2020. It is issued by TG Commodities, S.A. de C.V., which moved its domicile from the British Virgin Islands to El Salvador in January 2025 and is authorised there as a stablecoin issuer.

How Tether Gold works

Each token is an undivided interest in one fine troy ounce of gold on London Good Delivery bars, the LBMA standard, held by a custodian in Switzerland. Holders with a verified Tether Gold account can redeem whole bars, which usually means depositing about 430 tokens, and then take delivery in Switzerland or have the bar sold through a broker.

What XAUT is used for

XAUT gives on-chain exposure to the gold price without storing metal yourself. People hold it as a hedge or store of value, move gold value across borders in minutes, and trade it on exchanges against stablecoins and crypto.

XAUT supply

There is no fixed cap. Tokens are issued when customers buy XAUT from Tether Gold and removed when holders redeem for gold, so supply follows the ounces held in reserve.

Before you swap XAUT

XAUT tracks the price of gold, not the US dollar, so its value moves with the metal. This listing is the ERC-20 on Ethereum with 6 decimals, so keep ETH for gas. The issuer can block addresses at the contract level, and physical redemption is only possible through a verified Tether Gold account.

What to know before swapping Ethereum for Tether Gold

Use the widget on this page, already set to ETH on Ethereum → XAUT on Ethereum: connect your wallet or pay by QR code, enter the amount and your Ethereum address, and confirm. NEAR Intents swaps it and sends the XAUT to that address in one flow, and the widget shows the exact amount you will receive before you confirm.
