Tether Gold (XAUt) officially launched on Unitas Labs

Tether Gold announced at 18:00 Beijing time on August 19 that XAUt is now officially launched on Unitas Labs, and the integration has been completed. This launch marks the first time on-chain gold has gained native yield capabilities.

Users deposit XAUt and receive XGLD at a 1:1 ratio. After entering the protocol, XAUt serves as collateral, allowing stablecoins to be borrowed through leading centralized exchanges or compliant lending parties, which are then invested in Delta neutral strategies to capture funding rate returns. The gold allocation remains unchanged, only adding yield attributes; upon exit, XGLD is destroyed through the Redemption Contract to retrieve XAUt, with no mandatory lock-up.

Tether Gold is the most liquid tokenized gold asset, with each XAUt backed 1:1 by physical gold in Swiss vaults. Unitas Labs is an on-chain asset management protocol deployed on the BNB Smart Chain, focusing on providing yield layer infrastructure for physical assets. This integration is a key step for tokenized gold from "on-chain holding" to "on-chain financial applications."
