XAU (XAU) price, where to buy & arbitrage

XAU 16 exchanges

xau (XAU) trades on 16 exchanges that Finder tracks live, across 1 spot, 15 perpetual markets. xau arbitrage means buying XAU where it is priced lower and selling where it is higher, capturing the gap before it closes. The deepest liquidity is on Binance ($996,601,931 of $2,772,867,796 total 24h volume). It can be moved between exchanges over ERC20, 1. With both spot and perpetual XAU markets live, the spot-versus-perp gap and the cross-exchange spread are both arbitrage opportunities. Finder compares every XAU quote in real time to surface the best cross-exchange arbitrage spread, with live deposit and withdrawal status on each rail. Closed transfer rails are flagged before you act, so a wide spread on a stuck route is never shown as live.
