Recently, Matrixport's RWA platform Matrixdock announced that its gold token XAUm has been officially deployed on the Solana blockchain. This expansion signifies the further entrance of institutional-grade tokenized gold into a high-performance public chain ecosystem, providing more scalable infrastructure support for trading, liquidity management, and DeFi applications.

XAUm is one of the leading tokenized gold projects in Asia, with each token corresponding to 1 troy ounce of physical gold with 99.99% purity, meeting LBMA standards, and supporting physical redemption. The related gold is held in institutional-grade vaults and undergoes independent third-party audits.

Tokenized Gold Enters High-Performance Public Chain, Unleashing On-Chain Financial Use Cases

As the on-chain financial system gradually matures, market discussions are increasingly focusing on the long-term usability of assets in the on-chain financial system. In this context, tokenized gold is evolving from a static store of value asset to a foundational asset that can participate in on-chain financial activities.

With its high throughput, low latency, and low transaction costs, Solana provides a more suitable operational environment for the scalable deployment of RWAs. Its near-instant settlement capability and high-frequency interaction characteristics enable gold to not only exist as a store of value tool but also play a role in liquidity provision and reserve assets within the on-chain financial system.

Eva Meng, Head of Matrixdock, stated, "The deployment of XAUm on Solana enables gold to move further from passive holding to programmable financial infrastructure. The high-performance blockchain allows gold to achieve more efficient circulation and usage while maintaining full physical backing, marking an important step in the modernization of asset issuance, validation, and application."

Native Access to Solana DeFi Ecosystem, Balancing Physical Support with On-Chain Liquidity

XAUm will natively access Solana's DeFi ecosystem, with initial liquidity deployment on Raydium for decentralized trading and liquidity provision, and plans for further expansion into the lending markets within the Solana ecosystem. Pyth will serve as the primary price oracle, providing price references for on-chain applications.

This architecture enables XAUm holders to use tokenized gold for collateralization, access on-chain liquidity, and participate in diversified DeFi application scenarios while maintaining full physical gold backing and asset integrity. In terms of security, the Solana smart contracts supporting XAUm have undergone independent audits by Accretion and Sec3, reflecting Matrixdock's institutional risk management and on-chain security requirements.

Lu Yin, Head of Asia Pacific at the Solana Foundation, said, "Since its inception, Solana has been committed to supporting the scalable application of real-world assets. With the launch of XAUm, Matrixdock will bring physically backed, institutional-grade tokenized gold to the Solana ecosystem, enabling instant settlement, seamless integration with DeFi, and meeting institutional requirements for security and composability."

It is worth noting that this is not the first time Matrixdock has deployed a tokenized gold project on Solana. By the end of 2025, Matrixdock, as a tokenization technology provider, supported the Kingdom of Bhutan's Gelephu Mindfulness City (GMC) in launching the sovereign gold-backed token TER, which is currently running on Solana. By simultaneously advancing its institutional-grade product XAUm and sovereign-level projects like TER, Matrixdock has gradually established itself in the tokenization of real-world assets, spanning both the public and private sectors.

Solana's growing institutional participation, mature liquidity infrastructure, and active developer community are highly aligned with Matrixdock's strategic goal of positioning tokenized gold as a reserve asset supporting the on-chain financial market.
