Antalpha Platform Holding Company (NASDAQ: ANTA), a premier institutional digital asset financing platform (“Antalpha”), announced today that it has led a $43 million investment and, through participation in a committed PIPE transaction, acquired controlling voting rights in Prestige Wealth Inc. (NASDAQ: PWM; AURE) (“Aurelion” or the “Company”). Other qualified investors include TG Commodities S.A. de C.V. (“Tether”) and Kiara Capital Holding Limited (“Kiara Capital”), backed by Antalpha management.
Once all necessary approvals are received, the company (NASDAQ: PWM) expects to change its name to “Aurelion Inc.” and begin trading under the new ticker symbol (NASDAQ: AURE) on Monday, October 13, 2025.
Paul Liang, CFO of Antalpha, commented, “We’re excited to partner with Tether, the world’s largest stablecoin provider, to expand a trusted digital gold ecosystem. When customers can walk into a jewelry store and exchange Tether Gold (XAU₮) for a gold bar, digital assets become truly tangible. Through our Antalpha RWA Hub, we aim to deliver innovative functions and services like these, enhancing the liquidity and product availability of Tether Gold (XAU₮).”
Liang continued, “Building on the foundation of the Antalpha RWA Hub, we’re proud to spearhead the development of the Aurelion treasury—the first Nasdaq-listed treasury comprised exclusively of Tether Gold (XAU₮). This initiative expands access to tokenized gold and carries significant strategic importance in the digital asset space. Individuals and institutions alike need a safe haven to hedge against inflation, fiat currency devaluation, and cryptocurrency market volatility. As a leading digital asset finance platform, fortifying our balance sheet and holding substantial gold reserves via Tether Gold (XAU₮) to increase collateral resilience is firmly aligned with Antalpha’s interests.”
Antalpha’s “Reserve 2.0” program builds on an earlier pilot in 2024, when Antalpha acquired $20 million in Tether Gold (XAU₮). In early October, we announced the launch of the Antalpha RWA Hub in partnership with Tether, expanding access to Tether Gold (XAU₮). This $43 million PIPE investment in the Aurelion treasury marks a new milestone for “Reserve 2.0”—scaling Antalpha’s Tether Gold (XAU₮) holdings through institutional-grade infrastructure, governance, and transparency.
Gold has served as the ultimate store of value for over 5,000 years, consistently acting as a natural hedge against macroeconomic volatility and political uncertainty. During global crises and inflationary cycles, gold has shown a negative correlation with the U.S. Dollar Index (DXY) and serves as a safe haven amid crypto market volatility, underscoring the value of on-chain gold.
Tether Gold (XAU₮) is fully backed and redeemable by physical gold bars stored in Switzerland, meeting LBMA standards and addressing key vulnerabilities. Since launching in 2020, roughly 7 metric tons of gold have been used to collateralize Tether Gold (XAU₮), delivering institutional-grade transparency, auditability, and liquidity. By designating Tether Gold (XAU₮) as Aurelion’s exclusive treasury reserve, Antalpha seeks to smooth volatility, maintain liquidity, and strengthen collateral resilience—consistent with Antalpha’s risk management-first ethos.
