VILNIUS, Lithuania, Jan. 30, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BTCC, the world's longest-serving cryptocurrency exchange, announced that its tokenized precious metals futures pairs reached an all-time high of $301.7 million in daily volume on January 27, 2026, as traders sought exposure to traditional safe-haven assets amid heightened global market volatility.

Top precious metals pairs by volume (January 27, 2026):

  • Silver (SILVERUSDT): $245 million, representing over 81% of total precious metals volume
  • Gold (PAXGUSDT, XAUTUSDT, GOLDUSDT): $56.7 million combined

This brings the total trading volume of precious metals on January 27, 2026 to $301.7 million, the highest on record.

The milestone reflects a clear behavioural shift, as traders actively explore products to address the rise in macroeconomic uncertainty. The spike in tokenized silver trading volume aligns with renewed industrial demand forecasts and safe-haven positioning amid geopolitical tensions.

BTCC's performance in tokenized real-world assets (RWA) has accelerated rapidly in 2025. Throughout the year, the exchange recorded $53.1 billion in RWA futures volume, with quarterly volume growing 18-fold from Q1 to Q4. Gold and silver ranked among BTCC’s most-traded products alongside stocks such as NVIDIA and Tesla, reflecting growing demand for traditional market exposure via crypto-native platforms.

The momentum extends into 2026. BTCC is preparing to launch TradFi, a comprehensive solution that enables users to trade stocks, commodities, indices, and forex alongside crypto from a single account. As the exchange celebrates its 15th anniversary this year, it remains focused on bridging traditional finance and digital assets for millions of users worldwide.

VanEck Targets Stablecoins & Next-Gen ICOs

The post VanEck Targets Stablecoins & Next-Gen ICOs appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Welcome to the US Crypto News Morning Briefing—your essential rundown of the most important developments in crypto for the day ahead. Grab a coffee because the firms shaping crypto’s future are not just building products, but also trying to reshape how capital flows. Crypto News of the Day: VanEck Maps Next Frontier of Crypto Venture Investing VanEck, a Wall Street player known for financial “firsts,” is pushing that legacy into Web3. The firsts include pioneering US gold funds and launching one of the earliest spot Bitcoin ETFs. Sponsored Sponsored “Financial instruments have always been a kind of tokenization. From seashells to traveler’s checks, from relational databases to today’s on-chain assets. You could even joke that VanEck’s first gold mutual funds were the original ‘tokenized gold,’” Juan C. Lopez, General Partner at VanEck Ventures, told BeInCrypto. That same instinct drives the firm’s venture bets. Lopez said VanEck goes beyond writing checks and brings the full weight of the firm. This extends from regulatory proximity to product experiments to founders building the next phase of crypto infrastructure. Asked about key investment priorities, Lopez highlighted stablecoins. “We care deeply about three questions: How do we accelerate stablecoin ubiquity? What will users want to do with them once highly distributed? And what net new assets can we construct now that we have sophisticated market infrastructure?” Lopez added. However, VanEck is not limiting itself to the hottest narrative, acknowledging that decentralized finance (DeFi) is having a renaissance. The VanEck executive also noted that success will depend on new approaches to identity and programmable compliance layered on public blockchains.
