Bybit will soon support XAUT (Tether Gold) deposits and withdrawals on the Mantle network. This update expands access to tokenized gold and strengthens cross-chain asset support within the Mantle ecosystem.
With this integration, you can move XAUT on Mantle directly through Bybit. It offers a more efficient and cost-effective way to manage gold-backed digital assets on-chain.
What is XAUT on Mantle
XAUT (Tether Gold) is a gold-backed digital asset issued by Tether. Each token represents ownership of 1 troy ounce of physical gold stored in secure vaults.
By extending XAUT support to the Mantle network, you can access tokenized gold with faster settlement and lower transaction costs compared with Ethereum mainnet transfers. The Mantle deployment also lets you interact with DeFi applications while maintaining exposure to physical gold.
Key benefits of XAUT on Mantle
• Gold-backed stability: Each XAUT token is backed 1:1 by physical gold.
• Lower transaction costs: Mantle’s Layer 2 infrastructure reduces fees.
• Faster transfers: Improved settlement for deposits and withdrawals to Ethereum.
• Expanded DeFi access: Use XAUT across Mantle-based applications and protocols.
