New York, Feb 8, 2026, 04:57 EST — The closing bell has sounded.
Gold.com, Inc. surged 9.9% to close at $55.32 on Friday, with a wave of company news drawing heavy attention ahead of next week. Trading volume spiked to 1.37 million shares—well past the stock’s three-month average, according to Investing.com. 1
With U.S. markets shut for the weekend, attention turns to Gold.com. The company’s business lives and dies by flow and financing—steady appetite for coins and bars, tight spreads, constant hedging to dodge price swings. If there’s a change in funding, distribution, or payments, the effect hits fast.
The company’s been pushed somewhere new by those headlines. A bullion dealer moving toward crypto infrastructure—this isn’t just another capital raise. Investors are watching closely for the response from regulators and clients once trading resumes.
Gold.com has struck a deal to sell 3.371 million shares to TPM, S.A. de C.V.—the company behind Tether—at $44.50 each, for a total price tag of $150 million. The company said that’s 11.9% below its 10-day VWAP, noting the volume-weighted average as the usual benchmark for deals like this. $125 million closes up front; the other $25 million depends on regulatory approval. The transaction isn’t just about the stock. Tether gets a board seat, there’s a gold leasing facility worth at least $100 million, and an option for stablecoin-linked payments later. “Tether’s investment validates our strategy,” CEO Greg Roberts said. Tether’s Juan Sartori described the deal as a step forward in bringing “real-world assets” onto blockchain rails. 2
Gold.com makes it clear on its site: there’s no affiliation with Barrick Mining Corp (NYSE:B), and nothing links it to the SPDR Gold Trust (NYSEArca: GLD), the ETF that follows gold prices. 3
The company released its quarterly results in a Form 8-K filed on Feb. 6, and that same filing placed its common stock on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker GOLD. 4
Here’s the catch: that second tranche? Still needs the green light. Should they opt for stablecoin payments, regulators are likely to crank up scrutiny on compliance and customer checks. Meanwhile, their main business stays exposed to swings in metal prices and shifting retail demand.
Gold.com posted $6.48 billion in revenue for its fiscal second quarter ended Dec. 31. Net income attributable to the company landed at $11.6 million, or $0.46 per diluted share. January saw the company finalize its acquisition of Monex Deposit Company, a direct-to-consumer dealer. Roberts pointed out that premium spreads — the markup over spot metals — stayed tight. Silver’s “backwardation,” where near-term prices top those further out, weighed on the quarter, producing trading losses and bumping up interest expenses as financing and metal lease rates rose. The board declared a quarterly dividend of 20 cents, payable March 4 to shareholders on record as of Feb. 20. 5
