Why would an advanced user choose XAUT over USDT or other tokenized gold options?

[chainsniff]

XAUT offers direct physical exposure to gold rather than derivative or treasury-backed equivalents. This reduces reliance on fiat currency and mitigates inflationary or dollar-based volatility risks. Compared to other tokenized gold projects, Tether emphasizes institutional-grade custody, insured storage, and independent audits, though some transparency concerns remain. It’s designed for portfolio diversification and DeFi integration where gold-backed collateral is preferred.

XAUT tracks physical gold more transparently than most alternatives.
