Tether's XAUT tops $94.6M in DeFi as Aave captures 74.2% of deposits
- —$94.6M in XAUT sits on DeFi platforms, with Aave holding 74.2%
- —Aave's XAUT deposits grew 91.7% in ten weeks to $76.7M
- —Uniswap V3 holds about $16.5M in XAUT liquidity
- —Tether minted roughly 119,670 XAUT worth about $495M in late September
Why it matters: XAUT in lending pools is just 1.5% of tokenized gold market cap, but the new supply could sharply lift utilization if it flows into DeFi.
