A gold-backed stablecoin is a type of digital currency whose value is tied to the price of physical gold. Each token typically represents a specific quantity of gold held in reserve by the issuer. This design aims to provide price stability and act as a hedge against volatility often associated with other cryptocurrencies. It offers a digital representation of a traditional store of value.
