Wintermute launches institutional tokenized gold trading, sees $15B market in 2026
Wintermute has launched institutional OTC trading for tokenized gold, adding support for Paxos Gold (PAXG) and Tether Gold (XAUT), the two largest gold-backed tokens by market cap. The firm expects the tokenized gold sector to grow to $15 billion in 2026 despite a softer broader crypto market.
The company said its OTC desk will provide algorithmically optimized spot execution for institutional clients seeking gold exposure through blockchain-based settlement. Tokenized gold trading volume reached $126 billion in Q4/2025, surpassing five major gold ETFs for the first time, while onchain gold market cap climbed over 80% in three months to about $5.4 billion.
CEO Evgeny Gaevoy said tokenized gold is following an infrastructure shift similar to foreign exchange markets, driven by 24/7 liquidity and instant settlement. The desk will support trading against USDT, USDC, fiat currencies, and major digital assets, enabling real-time hedging and collateral mobility.
The move aligns with broader tokenized real-world asset growth. ARK Invest, Standard Chartered, and BlackRock have all projected strong long-term expansion in tokenized asset markets.
