As the price of gold is on the cusp of breaking its April peak, the market size of crypto tokens backed by the precious metal has already surged to fresh all-time highs.

The overall market capitalization of tokenized gold topped $2.57 billion, CoinGecko data shows, as the two leading offerings, Tether’s XAUT and Paxos’ PAXG tokens, saw sizable inflows recently. Both tokens’s are designed to track the price of gold and are backed by physical bars held in vaults.

XAUT (XAUT), issued by the firm that’s behind the USDT stablecoin, saw a $437 million jump in its supply to a record $1.3 billion, per CoinGecko. Tether’s Treasury minted 129,000 tokens in early August on the Ethereum network, blockchain data by Etherscan shows.

PAXG (PAXG), the gold-backed token of U.S.-based stablecoin firm Paxos, swelled to a record market size of $983 million, DefiLlama data shows. That’s been fueled by $141.5 million net inflows into the token since June.

Gold currently traded at around $3,470, just shy of the April 22 peak hit amidst the tariff tantrum.

The precious metal, which is widely considered as a safe haven asset during times of uncertainty, has been resurging lately, driven by a steepening U.S. Treasury yield curve.

A closely followed analyst believes that gold’s bull market has entered a stage where the precious metal could go higher for longer.

Pseudonymous analyst Dave the Wave tells his 149,500 followers on the social media platform X that gold is at a point in its parabolic rally where the precious metal could easily print 2x gains.

The trader shares a chart suggesting that gold’s parabolic surge began in 2016 and could extend up to 2028 to hit a massive price target of $7,500.

“Gold entering its parabolic blow-off stage…” 

At time of writing, gold is worth $3,341.

Turning to Bitcoin, the analyst thinks that BTC is following in the bullish footsteps of gold after the crypto king took out resistance at $90,000.

“BTC is showing strength in uncertain markets due to its function as digital gold, in my opinion.”

At time of writing, Bitcoin is trading for $93,559, up over 7% in the last 24 hours.

Other market analysts are also bullish on gold and Bitcoin. Adam Kobeissi, the founder and editor-in-chief of The Kobeissi Letter, says that both BTC and gold are surging higher as market participants rush to seek shelter in safe-haven assets.

“Gold and Bitcoin are now aligning for the first time in months.

Since April 7th, Gold is up over 15% while Bitcoin is up over 12%.

Why is this happening?

Markets are pricing-in US Dollar weakness and more instability.

Bonds are no longer a preferred safe haven.”
