Paxos Gold (PAXG) sees record $248 million inflow in January
- This year, Paxos Gold drew more than $248 million of fresh capital through January, backed by physical gold held in LBMA vaults in London, DefiLlama data shows.
- Amid a blistering gold run, gold surged through January, crossing $5,300 per ounce and rising 22%, while bitcoin slid over 10% in a year, shifting some crypto investors toward tokenized gold.
- CoinGecko reports the tokenized-gold market has topped 5.5 billion, with PAXG's market cap exceeding $2.2 billion after inflows, reflecting token mechanics and market scale.
- Regulators and auditors will watch as greater physical ownership via tokens raises custody concerns, while concentrated holdings invite scrutiny for tokenized gold providers and custody and audit firms.
- Longer term, analysts say if corporate treasuries and major banks scale allocations, balance-sheet driven demand could raise practical price floors and cement gold as a routine treasury asset.
