Insights

Market Strategist

Antalpha’s subsidiary bought $134 million of Tether Gold and led a $150 million financing, strengthening collateral and treasury composition.

Antalpha’s move changes a subsidiary treasury into a dedicated tokenized-gold reserve by acquiring $134 million of Tether Gold at $4,021.81 per XAU₮ and leading a $150 million financing that included ~$100 million in PIPE and a $50 million three‑year senior facility. The firm also acquired controlling voting rights in the subsidiary, shifting capital allocation and control toward a gold‑backed digital asset strategy.

Key dependencies and risks include balance‑sheet exposures and credit arrangements: the announcement states Antalpha will assume all default risk from funding sourced via lent collateral, and Aurelion plans to lend unencumbered Tether Gold back as collateral while receiving a technology fee. These are explicit contractual and credit points that affect counterparty risk and funding resilience; outcomes hinge on the Facility terms, the PIPE investor mix, and the mechanics of collateralized lending.

Concrete items to watch in the near term are the conference call on October 14, 2025, final approval of the planned renaming to Aurelion Inc., the detailed terms of the $50 million three‑year senior debt facility, and any disclosures on how Aurelion’s Tether Gold will be reported on the balance sheet. Expect relevant updates within days to weeks as regulatory approvals, financing closing details, and the call disclosures are released.

Prestige Wealth Inc. (NASDAQ: AURE) Plans to be Renamed Aurelion Inc., Subject to Customary Approvals
Aurelion Treasury is the First NASDAQ-listed Tether Gold Treasury

SINGAPORE, Oct. 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Antalpha Platform Holding Company (NASDAQ: ANTA) ("Antalpha"), a leading institutional digital asset financing platform, today announced that its subsidiary, Prestige Wealth Inc., (“Aurelion”) has completed the purchase of $134 million in Tether Gold (XAU₮) at $4,021.81 per XAU₮. Aurelion, NASDAQ’s first Tether Gold (XAU₮) Treasury, began to trade under the symbol (NASDAQ: AURE) on October 13, 2025; it previously traded under the symbol (NASDAQ: PWM). The Company plans to be renamed to “Aurelion Inc.,” subject to customary approvals.

On October 10, 2025, Aurelion completed $150 million financing (‘Aurelion financing”), which includes approximately $100 million in PIPE proceeds and a $50 million, three-year senior debt facility (the “Facility”). Antalpha led the $150 million financing with a $43 million PIPE investment and acquired controlling voting rights in Aurelion. 

The Antalpha Reserve 2.0 initiative began earlier this year through a pilot program to acquire $20 million of Tether Gold (XAU₮). In early October, Antalpha announced a collaboration with Tether to launch the Antalpha RWA Hub, to increase access to tokenized gold. This follows Antalpha’s anchor investment in Aurelion financing, which will allow Antalpha to grow its balance sheet and increase collateral resilience.

Gold has served as the ultimate benchmark of value for over 5,000 years, consistently providing a natural hedge against macroeconomic volatility and political uncertainty. With Aurelion committing to Tether Gold (XAU₮) as its sole treasury reserve, Antalpha aims to smooth volatility, preserve liquidity and increase collateral resilience, reflecting its long-standing management philosophy of risk management first. As part of Antalpha Reserve 2.0, management expects new business opportunities to emerge. For example, Antalpha can now offer Tether Gold (XAU₮) collateralized loans through the Antalpha Prime platform. Aurelion also plans to lend its unencumbered Tether Gold (XAU₮) to Antalpha as collateral and receive a technology fee in return. Antalpha will assume all default risk from funding derived from the borrowed collateral and lent to its end customers. In parallel, Aurelion will continue to offer its wealth management and asset management services.
