Market pulse

Live editorial snapshot — numbers update on every refresh

Today's state: PAX Gold is trading at $4,373.06 with a $1.9 billion market capitalization (rank #42). The price moved +0.60% over the past 24 hours and is +0.80% over 7 days; the 30-day move stands at +8.60% and the 90-day at +0.00%.

Position vs cycle: A drawdown of more than 70% from the last cycle high puts the asset firmly in deep-bear territory, where recoveries have historically required a fresh demand catalyst rather than mere mean-reversion.

Volatility and structure: 30-day realized volatility of 20.4% annualized is low for an asset this size. Our composite multi-horizon Price Strength reads Neutral (51/100), with a mixed multi-horizon profile and no clear directional bias.

Across the grid, PAX Gold has gained 0.60% in the past 24 hours; the 7-day reading is 0.80% higher and the 30-day stands 8.60% higher. Over the trailing 365 days, the asset has delivered gains of 0.00%, with a mixed multi-horizon profile and no clear directional bias.

The asset currently trades 97.7% below its all-time high, deep in the post-peak drawdown regime where statistical mean-reversion historically matters less than narrative and liquidity flow. 30-day realized volatility sits at 21% annualized — low territory for a crypto asset of this size.

PAX Gold currently shows deep order books and broad exchange coverage. 24-hour trading volume represents 6.979% of market capitalization — our liquidity-health composite scores this as Deep (91/100). Turnover at this level runs hot versus large-cap norms — usually a marker of intense trader attention.

The 90-day Pearson correlation of PAXG's daily returns versus Bitcoin's is -0.03 — a minimal negative relationship. PAX Gold has shown an inverse relationship with Bitcoin over the trailing window, which is rare and worth investigating before sizing.

The forecast above combines three independent models per the STNews methodology:

  • Technical model derives its ranges from moving averages, ATR, Bollinger bands and trend slope, and is most informative when price is cleanly trending or ranging.
  • Statistical (Monte Carlo) model uses the 90-day distribution of daily log returns to project the 5th, 50th and 95th percentile prices at each horizon — useful as an unbiased baseline that does not assume any trend continuation.
  • Peer-relative model benchmarks the asset against similarly-sized coins in its category, asking where it would sit if it tracked the median, lower-quartile and upper-quartile peer returns — a sector-anchored sanity check.

The ensemble forecast shown is a weighted average (40% statistical · 30% technical · 30% peer-relative). The confidence badge reflects how closely the three models agree: tighter agreement → higher confidence; wider disagreement → lower confidence, indicating that the asset is in a regime where statistical models alone are unreliable.

Beyond Bitcoin, PAXG's 90-day return correlations to the other two largest layer-1 references help characterize whether the asset moves as part of a crypto-market beta complex or as something more idiosyncratic. The Pearson correlations across daily log returns:

  • Bitcoin reference: -0.04 — a minimal negative relationship.
  • Ethereum reference: +0.04 — a minimal positive relationship.
  • Solana reference: +0.03 — a minimal positive relationship.

When an asset correlates strongly with multiple majors, it is trading largely as market beta — the big caps set the direction and standalone outperformance is elusive. Weak or negative correlations instead signal idiosyncratic forces (its own news, sector rotation, narrative changes) capable of producing returns the broader market does not share.

About PAX Gold

PAX Gold (PAXG) is a cryptocurrency, traded on global digital-asset markets. It trades at $4,373.06 as of the latest update, with a 24-hour move up 0.60%, placing it at rank #42 by market capitalisation among all listed digital assets. PAX Gold's current market cap stands at $1.91B, a figure used by traders, analysts and institutional desks to gauge relative liquidity and risk exposure across the crypto market.

On this page you'll find a live, daily-refreshed dashboard tracking PAX Gold across multiple data sources — price history going back several years, on-chain activity where available, fundamentals like circulating supply and dilution, top exchanges by volume, technical analysis using moving averages and RSI, and an algorithmic short, mid and long-term forecast. All figures are pulled from public APIs and cached locally; nothing here is investment advice.

PAX Gold is part of the tokenized real-world asset (RWA) sector — a growing category where traditional financial instruments are issued or wrapped on-chain to combine TradFi yield with crypto-native composability. RWA adoption has accelerated meaningfully with institutional participation from BlackRock (BUIDL), Franklin Templeton, Ondo Finance, and others.

PAX Gold currently ranks #42 by market capitalisation, making it a top-50 asset. It currently trades about 98% below its all-time high of $192,278.70 set in October 2019, while sitting roughly 3.1× above its record low.

STNews Analyst Note

By market value PAX Gold (PAXG) sits inside the top 50, trading at $4,373.06 as of the latest snapshot. PAXG is +0.60% over 24 hours, +0.80% over the past week, +8.60% over 30 days, putting it in the upper half of weekly performers across the top 250 by market capitalisation. PAX Gold remains roughly 98% beneath its all-time high of $192,278.70, a level first printed in October 2019. Trading volume is light versus market value — only about 3.8% of capitalisation changes hands daily — so larger orders can move price more than they would for higher-liquidity peers.

How it works — PAX Gold

PAX Gold tokenizes a real-world asset (typically US Treasuries, money-market fund shares, private credit, or commodity exposure) and brings that exposure on-chain. An off-chain custodian or fund issuer holds the underlying asset, and an equivalent on-chain token is minted, providing programmable access to TradFi yield or collateral.

The token's value tracks the underlying asset, not open-market speculation. Yield (where present) accrues to holders either via rebasing supply, automatic compounding, or distribution events specified by the issuer.

PAX Gold currently ranks #42 by market capitalisation, making it a top-50 asset. It currently trades about 98% below its all-time high of $192,278.70 set in October 2019, while sitting roughly 3.1× above its record low.

Use cases — PAX Gold

Primary use cases: on-chain access to US Treasury yield (the largest RWA category), collateral for crypto-native lending and structured products, treasury management for DAOs and crypto-native businesses, and on-chain settlement of TradFi-equivalent products. Adoption tracks regulatory clarity and the issuing institution's credibility.

Daily volume runs at about 3.8% of market capitalisation ($71.72M in the last 24 hours), in the normal band for a coin of this size and supportive of orderly entries and exits.

Tokenomics

Supply schedule & distribution

Circulating vs locked vs unminted
  • Circulating supply: 436.95K PAXG — tokens actively trading and held by the public
  • Total supply: 436.95K PAXG — all tokens minted to date (including those locked or held by the issuer)

PAX Gold's supply schedule directly affects its long-term inflation rate and, by extension, how dilutive future issuance will be to existing holders. A coin near full dilution behaves very differently from one that still has 60% of its supply waiting to be unlocked.

Supply economics

Issuance pressure, dilution, and structural value accrual

The supply story for PAX Gold comes down to three things: how tokens are issued over time, how many are circulating now, and how far the fully-diluted valuation sits above the circulating market cap.

Whether the tokenomics help or hurt comes down to value accrual versus dilution — fee burns, reinvested staking yield and TVL growth on one side, scheduled emissions on the other. A favourable balance lets price grind higher without hype; an unfavourable one means the asset must keep attracting demand just to absorb issuance.

Trader's note

Coin-type-aware tactical interpretation

For PAX Gold as a tokenized real-world asset, the tactical framework is closer to fixed-income investing than crypto-asset speculation. The underlying instrument (US Treasuries, money-market shares, private credit) determines the return profile; the on-chain wrapper provides programmable settlement and DeFi composability.

The relevant monitoring: issuer credibility and operational integrity, regulatory developments in the issuer's jurisdiction, on-chain redemption mechanics during stress, and the wrapper protocol's security track record. RWAs are useful as on-chain dollar yield instruments and as DeFi collateral — and the case for owning them is generally about portfolio architecture rather than tactical positioning.

The Crypto Fear & Greed Index aggregates volatility, market momentum, social media activity, dominance and Google Trends data into a single 0–100 score updated daily. Today's reading is 29 — Fear.

Extreme fear (below 25) historically signals buying opportunities for contrarians, while extreme greed (above 75) often precedes corrections. The index works best as one input among many, not as a standalone trading signal.

Macro & cross-asset context

How macro liquidity and cross-asset moves frame the trade

At the top of the macro stack sit interest rates, dollar liquidity and risk appetite, and crypto has tended to amplify all three. Easing financial conditions and a weaker dollar have historically pulled the sector up; tightening liquidity and a firmer dollar have reliably pulled it back down.

A handful of traditional gauges tend to lead or confirm crypto moves: the dollar index (strength is a headwind), the 10-year yield (the price of risk capital), gold (an occasional fellow-traveller in debasement trades), and the S&P 500 (which often moves with crypto when liquidity, not fundamentals, is in the driver's seat).

Narrowing to PAX Gold, the cleanest leading signal has usually been crypto-native liquidity — the combined trend in stablecoin supply, futures open interest and exchange turnover. When that pool of on-chain capital grows, PAXG has tended to advance with it; when it drains, the move has typically gone into reverse. With a comparatively loose 90-day BTC correlation of -0.04, PAXG has shown more idiosyncratic price behaviour than the average large-cap — its own catalysts can matter as much as the broad liquidity tide.

Risks

Specific risks: issuer/custodian risk (the underlying asset depends on an off-chain entity's solvency and operational integrity), regulatory risk (RWA classification is jurisdiction-specific and actively evolving), redemption risk (some RWAs gate redemption by amount, holding period, or KYC status), smart contract risk in the on-chain wrapper, and liquidity risk in secondary markets (institutional RWAs may have thin on-chain liquidity outside primary issuance).
