How to convert Tether to Tether Gold

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

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

USDT 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 USDT 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 Tether and Tether Gold

What is Tether (USDT)?

Tether (USDT) is a stablecoin designed to hold a value of one US dollar, issued by the company Tether since 2014. Having started on Bitcoin's Omni Layer, it has since expanded to many blockchains, including Ethereum, TRON, Solana and others.

How Tether works

Tether creates new USDT when verified customers deposit dollars and redeems tokens for dollars when they are returned, so the supply follows demand. The company reports holding reserve assets, mainly US Treasury bills and cash equivalents, to back the tokens in circulation and publishes periodic attestations of those reserves.

What USDT is used for

Traders use USDT to park funds between trades and as a quote currency on exchanges around the world. It is also common for cross-border payments and for saving in dollars in places with volatile local currencies.

USDT supply

There is no fixed supply: tokens are minted when dollars come in and burned when they are redeemed. The goal is for each USDT to be backed by reserves worth at least one dollar.

Before you swap USDT

USDT exists on many networks, and the swap widget defaults to the Ethereum version, so confirm the selected network matches the chain of your wallet before sending or receiving. Sending USDT over the wrong network can make funds difficult or impossible to recover.

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.
