Tokenized Gold Joins Stablecoins in MiniPay Push for Emerging Markets

[encrypted]

Opera’s MiniPay wallet is expanding beyond dollar stablecoins by supporting Tether Gold (XAUT), a tokenized asset backed by physical gold. The move positions XAUT as an option for inflation-resistant savings, particularly in emerging economies facing currency volatility.

XAUT recently surged to an all-time high alongside spot gold prices and now carries a market capitalization of $3.4 billion, according to CoinGecko. MiniPay reports more than $153 million in transfers in December alone, highlighting growing demand for mobile-accessible stores of value beyond local fiat currencies.
