What moves the PAXG price
Almost entirely the gold price. One PAXG is a claim on one troy ounce held by Paxos, so when spot gold moves, PAXG moves with it. The small gap you see above is the market for the token itself: buyers and sellers on exchanges and on-chain venues, plus how easy it is to create new tokens or redeem them for metal. That gap normally stays within a fraction of a percent.
What costs you more than the gap is the route: the spread on the venue where you buy, network fees to move the token, and what it costs to get back to dollars. Check those before the premium. The full cross-token view is in the tokenized metal premium tracker.
Method
Token price from CoinGecko and spot gold from gold-api.com are fetched in the same run; the premium is the token price over spot for one troy ounce, minus one. If the two prices were taken more than 15 minutes apart, or the implied ounces per token disagree with the issuer's stated unit by more than 5%, the premium is withheld rather than published.
