Paxos has officially expanded its Pax Gold (PAXG) token to the Solana blockchain, marking the initial phase of a strategic multi-chain rollout. This development arrives as gold experiences its strongest bull market in twenty years, driving significant investor interest in digital alternatives to physical bullion. PAXG, which has seen growth exceeding 300% since 2024, allows users to hold tokens backed by one fine troy ounce of gold stored in LBMA-accredited vaults. By leveraging Solana’s high-speed, low-fee infrastructure and partnering with Sunrise, Paxos aims to enhance liquidity across decentralized exchanges and wallets. The expansion is supported by a reformed infrastructure designed to maintain strict compliance and supply auditing across both EVM and non-EVM chains. This move signifies a broader trend of asset issuers seeking to increase the accessibility of real-world assets within high-growth blockchain ecosystems. Ultimately, the integration provides Solana users with seamless exposure to regulated, physical gold while removing traditional custody and storage burdens.
Paxos is a regulated blockchain infrastructure company that issues tokenized assets, including PAXG and various stablecoins. PAXG is designed to provide investors with ownership of physical gold by tokenizing specific, identifiable gold bars held in secure, audited vaults. The protocol ensures transparency through regular attestations and inspections, bridging the gap between traditional precious metal markets and digital asset efficiency.
