I'm not gonna lie - if anyone had told me a year ago that I’d be buying physical gold through a #DEX on @Ton Network of all places, I would’ve laughed. But here we are.
I just swapped into tokenized gold on STON.fi, inside Telegram wallet, and it actually works smoothly. No KYC, no vaults, no broker and honestly? It feels really good.
XAUt0, a tokenized version of Tether Gold ($XAUt) recently launched on STON.fi, and I think it might be the cleanest way to own gold I’ve ever seen.
So what even is XAUt0?
Each token equals 1 troy ounce of LBMA-certified physical gold, stored in Switzerland and issued by Tether. And with STON.fi, you can swap for it with $USDT or $TON in one click.
Here's what you can do on the STON.fi DEX right now:
🔹You can swap into XAUt0 using TON or USDT right inside the TG app or Tonkeeper wallet.
🔹Provide liquidity in XAUt0/TON or XAUt0/USDT pools ,which earns you 0.2% of all trading fees.

There are a few reasons why I’m paying attention:
🔹Gold just hit $3,385/oz, and its been quitely rallying for months.
🔹XAUt has near-zero daily volatility ~0.3% (vs BTC’s ~5%)
🔹You can DCA into it like a stablecoin, but with global upside
🔹And now, you can hold it next to your TON and USDT, all from the Telegram wallet.
📌 Oh, and here’s something interesting. if you hold 50+ XAUt0, you can actually redeem real, physical LGMA gold bars, audited and vaulted in Switzerland.
XAUt0 on STON.fi is the first time gold actually feels like a DeFi-native asset. Not just tokenized, but liquid, cross-chain, and frictionless. You can hedge your TON bags, LP for passive yield, and actually own fractions of real gold without touching TradFi.
This is the kind of thing you don’t notice until it’s everywhere, and by the time gold becomes the new digital dollar, TON users might already be sitting on ounces.
