What is Tether Gold (XAUT)?
XAUT is the on-chain representation of physical gold bars stored in a Swiss vault. Issued by TG Commodities Limited (a Tether group company), each token gives the holder a legal claim to one fine troy ounce of LBMA-grade gold. XAUT trades as an ERC-20 on Ethereum and tracks the spot gold price 1:1 — giving you the price exposure of bullion with the speed and 24/7 settlement of crypto. At XBTFX, XAUT is a deposit asset that converts to XAU for MT5 base trading or backs positions directly as xPro cross-margin collateral.

Questions
XAUT Deposit Questions
Common questions about depositing Tether Gold (XAUT), using it as xPro collateral, and converting to XAU on MT5 at XBTFX.
-
What is Tether Gold (XAUT)?
XAUT is a token issued by TG Commodities Limited (a Tether company). Each XAUT represents legal title to one fine troy ounce of gold held in a Swiss vault by a regulated custodian. The token trades on Ethereum as an ERC-20 and tracks the spot gold price 1:1, giving you on-chain exposure to physical bullion without the storage logistics of holding gold yourself.
-
Can I deposit XAUT and trade on XBTFX?
Yes. XBTFX accepts XAUT deposits on Ethereum (ERC-20) only. Once deposited, you can either use XAUT directly as cross-margin collateral on xPro, or convert in-wallet to XAU and fund an XAU-base MT5 account — letting you trade forex, metals, indices, and crypto with a gold-denominated balance.
-
Which network does XBTFX support for XAUT?
XAUT is supported on the Ethereum network only (ERC-20). XAUT tokens on any other chain are not supported. Always send via Ethereum mainnet to the deposit address generated in the client portal.
-
Is XAUT an MT5 base currency?
No. XAU is the gold base currency on MT5; XAUT is the deposit asset. After your XAUT deposit lands in the XBTFX Wallet, use the in-wallet exchange to convert XAUT to XAU and fund an XAU-base MT5 trading account. Alternatively, hold XAUT in your wallet and use it as cross-margin collateral on xPro without converting.
-
Why deposit XAUT instead of buying XAU directly?
XAUT is the easiest way to move physical-gold-backed value into a trading account on-chain. You skip the bank rails, the wire delays, and the paperwork that comes with funding a gold-denominated account through fiat. Once XAUT credits, converting to XAU is instant in-wallet.
-
Can I use XAUT as collateral on xPro?
Yes. xPro uses multi-asset cross-margin collateral. XAUT collateralises positions directly without conversion — your XAUT balance backs trades across forex, metals, indices, crypto, or share CFDs. Because XAUT tracks spot gold, your collateral acts as a built-in gold position alongside whatever you trade.
-
Is there a fee to deposit XAUT?
XBTFX charges zero deposit fees on XAUT. You only pay the underlying Ethereum network gas fee for the ERC-20 transfer.
-
Does XBTFX charge for XAUT withdrawals?
XBTFX does not charge a withdrawal fee on XAUT — you only pay the Ethereum network fee on the outgoing transaction. Withdrawal requests are processed within 24 hours on business days.
Important Information
- XBTFX accepts XAUT on Ethereum (ERC-20) only. Sending XAUT-equivalent tokens on any other chain is not supported and may result in permanent loss of funds.
- XAUT is not an MT5 base currency. Use the in-wallet exchange to convert XAUT to XAU and fund a gold-base MT5 account, or hold XAUT as xPro cross-margin collateral.
- XAUT is issued by TG Commodities Limited. XBTFX has no affiliation with the issuer and provides XAUT solely as a deposit, withdrawal, and collateral option.
- XBTFX charges zero deposit and withdrawal fees on XAUT. Standard Ethereum network fees apply.
- Gold is a volatile asset. XAUT collateral value moves with the spot gold price — gains amplify your buying power, losses reduce it.
