Parallèlement, les investisseurs se tournent vers les actifs en or et en argent tokenisés

Résumé

• Gold surged to $4,400/oz, the focus now turns to silver as it breaks $50/oz– signaling a historic rally in precious metals.​
• Tokenised gold and silver assets are opening new market access, pushing daily trading volumes into the billions.​
• Analysts remain optimistic about the long-term view for both physical and tokenised metals, even after the recent correction.

Les métaux précieux atteignent des records historiques

Images of long queues outside bullion shops surfaced as investors rushed to purchase physical gold. Global demand for gold has hit record levels this year, with prices peaking near $4,400/oz – an all-time high. The ongoing rally has even exceeded the most bullish analyst forecasts, driven by monetary policy shifts, inflation fears, and geopolitical instability. Despite the recent pullback, the price of gold is still up 50 percent this year.

Les actifs en or tokenisés reflètent les tendances du marché

Gold-backed tokens such as Kinesis Gold (KAU), Tether Gold (XAUT) and Paxos Gold (PAXG) surged in tandem with physical gold, collectively reaching a market capitalisation of $3.5 billion, according to CoinGecko data. Daily trading activity saw volumes spike to $640 million– more than 24 percent– as investors responded to the gold price highs.

“What we’re seeing is a fundamental shift in how people interact with precious metals. Through tokenisation, gold and silver have become globally accessible, tradeable 24/7, instantly settled and divisible down to a fraction of a gram. Holders gain digital ownership of physical, allocated bullion that you can spend, save, or transfer in seconds. That’s the power of combining physical security with digital efficiency.” said Jai Bifulco, Chief Commercial Officer, Kinesis Money.

Bifulco added that Gold (KAU) is a digital representation of one gram of fully allocated physical gold, held in their audited vaulting network across the world. Each KAU is directly redeemable for that gold, the legal title always remains with the holder, not with Kinesis Money. In his view, KAU delivers all the strength of physical ownership with the speed and conformité of blockchain technology, creating a bridge between traditional wealth preservation and modern financial access. 

Banxa étend l’accès aux métaux précieux tokenisés

The growing interest in tokenised real-world assets RWA is being securely powered by crypto infrastructure partners such as Banxa, a global leader in embedded crypto and fiat-crypto payments. Banxa enables seamless and compliant access to actifs numériques for millions of investors in over 200 countries across the US, Europe, LATAM, and Asia, by supporting more than 100 moyens de paiement in 30+ fiat currencies.

Banxa’s embedded crypto infrastructure allows users to easily convert between currencies, stablecoins and RWAs such as real estate, art, and commodities. 

“Platforms like Kinesis, supported by partners such as Banxa, are removing barriers between fiat and actifs numériques, enabling people everywhere to convert, hold, and spend precious metals with ease. It’s the next phase of financial evolution, where value is stable, transparent, and truly global.” said Bifulco

L’attention des investisseurs se tourne vers l’argent

Following last month’s surge in gold, Silver has gained approximately 65 percent since the start of the year, breaking through $48 and $54/oz on some platforms. As industrial demand accelerates– particularly across solar energy and electric vehicles– and monetary factors collide with supply deficits, some analysts are projecting silver could reach $100/oz next year if momentum continues.

“Silver is catching a perfect storm. You’ve got monetary demand rising alongside industrial demand, especially from renewable energy and EV manufacturing and a structural supply deficit that’s widening. Tokenised silver, like Kinesis Silver (KAG), gives investors en temps réel access to that market without the logistical friction of storage or transport. KAG is one-to-one backed by physical silver, so you’re not speculating on paper, you’re owning the metal directly, with instant global liquidity.” said Bifulco.

Le virage vers les actifs tokenisés prend de l’ampleur

With J.P. Morgan citing positive gains for gold, averaging $3,675/oz in late 2025 and climbing toward $4,000 by mid-2026, analysts see continued growth for the precious metals market. When asked if tokenised assets would drive the next wave of growth, Bifulco responded “We’re witnessing the democratisation of assets once reserved for institutions.” He believes tokenisation is transforming gold, silver, and other commodities into inclusive, yield-bearing instruments, accessible to anyone with an internet connection.
