TechFlow News, January 21 — Recently, the international gold market has continued to strengthen. Data shows that both futures and spot prices for gold have surged past $4,800 per ounce, repeatedly hitting record highs, reaffirming gold’s role as a global safe-haven asset.
In the crypto asset market, gold's strong performance has quickly spilled over to on-chain assets. The XAUT gold token on Bybit is currently trading at $4,881, up 2% over the past 24 hours, making it one of the most watched assets in the recent market.
Bybit continues to expand trading and investment opportunities for gold assets, offering users more flexible and efficient ways to participate:
- 7×24 continuous trading:不受 traditional market hours, allowing users to seize opportunities from gold price movements anytime
- Supports DCA (Dollar-Cost Averaging) investment plans: smooths out costs during high volatility and enables long-term positioning in gold assets
- On-chain gold token trading: seamlessly bridges CeFi and DeFi, lowering the barrier to entry
Meanwhile, Bybit Alpha, the first exchange platform to support liquid staking of on-chain gold tokens, has launched the XAUT0 liquidity pool. Users can directly use USDT, USDC, or XAUT on Bybit to provide liquidity, earning annualized returns exceeding 100% while capitalizing on gold’s price appreciation—delivering dual benefits of “price gains + real on-chain yield.”
As global macro uncertainty intensifies and risk-aversion sentiment rises, gold is transitioning from traditional financial markets into the on-chain world. Through product innovation, Bybit is enabling more users to easily participate in the next cycle of gold revaluation.
