B2C2 Launches Tokenised Gold Trading

With gold prices continuing to test record highs, digital assets liquidity provider B2C2 has launched OTC trading for tokenised gold, offering clients spot and CFD exposure to PAX Gold (PAXG) and Tether Gold (XAUT).

B2C2 says through its OTC platform, clients can trade tokenised gold against selected cryptocurrencies, stablecoins and fiat currencies, subject to jurisdiction. The offering delivers T+0 settlement, 24/7/365 market access, deep liquidity and institutional-grade risk management — combining the enduring utility of physical gold exposure with the capital efficiency of digital asset markets.

PAXG and XAUT together represent approximately 97% of the tokenised gold market, the firm says, which has grown to nearly $6 billion in market capitalisation. By comparison, traditional gold exchange-traded funds collectively represent hundreds of billions of dollars in investor capital — something B2C2 says is an illustration of how early tokenised gold is as a segment and the significance of the runway for growth as digital infrastructure continues to mature.

“Gold has long been one of the most important macro hedges, but for most institutions the infrastructure used to access it still operates on traditional financial rails,” says Thomas Restout, group CEO at B2C2. “Tokenised gold brings that exposure on-chain — delivering the speed, liquidity and capital efficiency of digital assets within a single, always-on trading environment.”

As institutional participation in digital assets broadens, B2C2 argues that tokenised commodities are emerging as a compelling use case within the real-world asset ecosystem. By enabling physical assets to move across blockchain infrastructure, it asserts that tokenisation has the potential to “fundamentally change how commodities are traded, settled and deployed as collateral in global financial markets”.
