As tokenized assets gradually enter the trading platform system, gold, a highly standardized asset, is becoming one of the important focal points for RWA in professional investor trading scenarios. Recently, the Hong Kong trading platform EX.IO announced that its OTC channel has officially supported the trading of the gold token XAUm, providing new asset allocation options for qualified professional investors.

Public information shows that EX.IO currently provides digital asset-related services to professional investors through OTC methods. The launch of XAUm is only open to professional investors, with the trading channel clearly limited to the OTC system. In the current market environment, the entry of tokenized assets into actual trading scenarios through trading platform channels is seen as an important manifestation of RWA applications gradually extending to the professional investor system.

XAUm is a tokenized asset based on physical gold, supported 1:1 by physical gold that meets LBMA standards, and issued and circulated in the form of blockchain. Compared to earlier gold tokens that mainly circulated on-chain, XAUm emphasizes asset standardization, clear custody structure, and on-chain verifiability to enhance its comprehensibility and usability in institutional and professional investor scenarios.

According to public data, XAUm was launched by Matrixport's RWA platform Matrixdock. Recently, Matrixdock released an audit report for physical gold for the second half of 2025, verifying the weight, purity, serial numbers, and custody records of the relevant physical gold bars one by one. The related gold is currently stored in institutional-grade vault systems at Brink’s Hong Kong, Brink’s Singapore, and Malca-Amit Singapore.

Providing XAUm trading through EX.IO's OTC channel means that professional investors can access tokenized gold assets within the trading platform framework. Compared to earlier models that mainly relied on on-chain circulation, the participation of the trading platform's OTC channel provides a clearer path for the use of tokenized gold in professional investor scenarios.

From a broader industry perspective, tokenized gold is generally regarded as a type of asset with a high degree of standardization and relative ease of verification in the RWA field. With the addition of more trading channels and market participants, its operational performance in real trading environments is also becoming an important reference for observing whether tokenized assets can continue to take root. Against the backdrop of the ongoing evolution of RWA, the entry of tokenized gold into actual trading scenarios through trading platforms may provide more market-verifiable practical cases for related asset forms.
