Tether Gold launches tokenized dividends on Wall Street for the first time, with XAUT's market cap surpassing $2.5 billion

XAUT-1,45%

PANews February 18 News, according to Cryptopolitan, Tether announced the launch of a dividend mechanism for its gold-backed token Tether Gold (XAUT), becoming the first publicly listed gold company structure that allows shareholders to choose to receive dividends in tokenized gold rather than cash. This move is described as a major breakthrough in the gold industry. The digital gold market has recently seen a surge in demand, with XAUT’s market capitalization approaching $2.55 billion, leading the overall growth of tokenized real-world assets.

Elemental Royalty Corporation emphasized that this mechanism links tokenized gold ownership with standard royalty payments on the blockchain. Tether acquired approximately 33% equity in Elemental in 2025. Investors can gain direct physical gold ownership by allocating funds to gold royalties. The related company is expected to distribute approximately 12 cents per share in quarterly dividends. Investors who prefer cash dividends can still choose cash.
