DUBAI, UAE, March 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Bybit, the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, has launched XAUT Earn, a product that enables users to earn interest on tokenized gold holdings, a feature that remains uncommon across both traditional and digital gold markets.
The XAUT Earn product allows users to generate yield on Tether Gold (XAUT), a digital asset backed by physical gold. The launch introduces an alternative model for gold ownership by combining price exposure with income generation, in contrast to conventional gold products that typically do not offer yield.
As part of the launch, Bybit is offering two XAUT savings products: flexible staking and fixed-term savings options, both offering APR.
Gold has historically served as a safe-haven asset during periods of economic uncertainty, but it has not traditionally generated income for holders. Physical gold, exchange-traded funds, and other tokenized gold products such as PAXG typically do not natively offer yield. XAUT Earn introduces a structure that allows holders to retain gold exposure while earning returns.
Interest-bearing gold products remain limited across the broader market, where yield opportunities are predominantly concentrated in stablecoins. The introduction of XAUT Earn expands the range of yield-generating instruments tied to real-world assets within the digital asset ecosystem.
The product reflects growing demand for assets that combine capital preservation with yield generation. This approach broadens the utility of gold for both traditional investors and digital asset users. The offering is designed to appeal to a wide range of participants, including traditional gold holders seeking additional utility, crypto users seeking diversification beyond stablecoin-based yield products, and risk-averse investors interested in combining defensive assets with income-generating strategies.
The launch forms part of Bybit’s ongoing efforts to expand its product suite and bridge traditional and digital finance through asset-backed yield solutions.
