How to convert USD Coin to Tether Gold

The widget above is already set to USDC 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 USDC. 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 USDC 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 USDC is refunded.

Prefer to keep a balance inside NEAR Intents? The Deposit tab adds USDC 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 USDC → XAUT swap

USDC 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.

Swapping USDC to XAUT is how you buy Tether Gold with US dollars you already hold on-chain: you pay in a stablecoin and receive XAUT directly on Ethereum.

About USD Coin and Tether Gold

What is USD Coin (USDC)?

USDC is a US dollar stablecoin issued by Circle, first launched in September 2018 through the Centre consortium that Circle founded with Coinbase. Circle now manages the token directly, and USDC is issued natively on a range of blockchains, with Ethereum among the largest.

How USD Coin works

Each USDC is meant to be redeemable for one dollar, and Circle mints or burns tokens as institutional customers deposit or withdraw funds. Reserves are held in cash and short-dated US government obligations, largely through a dedicated fund, and Circle publishes regular reports on their composition.

What USDC is used for

USDC is widely used for settlement and payments, both in crypto markets and in business transfers that benefit from moving dollars at any hour. In decentralized finance it serves as a common unit for lending, liquidity pools and trading.

USDC supply

Supply is elastic: USDC is created when dollars are deposited and destroyed when it is redeemed. Circle aims to keep reserves equal to or greater than the amount of USDC in circulation.

Before you swap USDC

The widget defaults to USDC on Ethereum, but the same token also lives on Solana, NEAR, Base and other chains, so select the network your wallet actually uses. Beware of bridged versions with similar names, which are not the same as natively issued USDC.

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.
