Previously trading under the ticker PWM, Prestige Wealth began trading under the symbol AURE on Monday, and the company plans to be renamed Aurelion pending regulatory approval. The firm bought Tether Gold at the average purchase price of $4,021,81 per XAUT, according to a press release. Tether Gold represents one troy ounce of gold per XAUT token, fully redeemable for LBMA-standard bars stored in Switzerland. Since launching in 2020, the asset has accumulated approximately seven tons of physical gold backing. Gold is currently witnessing its strongest annual rally since the late 1970s, recently breaking fresh all-time highs above $4,100 per ounce — up more than 57% year-to-date. XAU/USD price chart.

"By merging the stability of physical gold with the efficiency and transparency of blockchain, Aurelion is redefining what a modern digital treasury can be. This structure offers daily onchain verification, regulatory compliance and the potential for yield generation." The acquisition comes after Aurelion announced it had raised about $150 million through a $100 million PIPE and a $50 million three-year debt facility on Oct. 10. Institutional digital asset financing firm Antalpha invested $43 million in the PIPE and gained a controlling voting stake in Aurelion, building on its $20 million pilot Tether Gold acquisition earlier this year. Accredited investors, including Tether's XAUT issuing entity TG Commodities and Kiara Capital, also participated in the round, investing $15 million and $6 million, respectively.
