Bybit launches a dedicated options market for Tether Gold (XAUT)
Bybit has teamed up with Orbit Markets to launch Tether Gold (XAUT) options, marking the first rollout of XAUT options on a major crypto exchange. The European-style contracts are settled in USDT, with each options contract tied to one XAUT token representing one troy ounce of physical gold. Trading is supported via Bybit’s RFQ system for OTC execution, with initial liquidity provided by market makers with traditional precious-metals trading backgrounds. XAUT is a gold-pegged token, and while the listing does not change spot gold supply and demand, it is intended to improve price discovery for on-chain gold assets and expand institutional hedging tools.

Standard Chartered’s Kendrick says bitcoin may have set this cycle’s low as key signals turn bullish
Standard Chartered analyst Geoffrey Kendrick said bitcoin may already have marked the low for the current market cycle. He pointed to three conditions: renewed purchases by Strategy, U.S. spot bitcoin ETFs turning back to net inflows, and continued weakness in oil prices.
