Tether Announces Plans to Launch USD₮ on RGB

Tether, the world’s largest digital asset company, has announced that it will bring its flagship stablecoin, USD₮ (USDT), to the RGB protocol. RGB is a next-generation protocol that is designed to issue digital assets directly to Bitcoin (BTC). This powerful move signifies a momentous step towards making stablecoin native to the Bitcoin network.

RGB, which just came out with its 0.11.1 release on the mainnet, makes Bitcoin more than just a place to store currency. The protocol lets users issue assets privately on a large scale and with control, which is how stablecoins like USD₮ may exist directly on Bitcoin's network. With this introduction, users will be able to keep and send USD₮ and Bitcoin in the same wallet.

According to Tether, RGB’s architecture will allow USD₮ to run directly on Bitcoin’s infrastructure. The integration is supposed to add important capabilities, including offline transactions, which will make payments more flexible and reliable. The combination of Bitcoin's security and Tether's stability might speed up the use of stable, daily digital money for billions of people around the world.

Paolo Ardoino, CEO of Tether, emphasized the importance of the launch, stating: “Bitcoin deserves a stablecoin that feels truly native, lightweight, private, and scalable. With RGB, USD₮ gains a powerful new pathway on Bitcoin, reinforcing our belief in Bitcoin as the foundation of a freer financial future.”

Tether's announcement shows that it is the leader in bringing new ideas to stablecoins across all blockchain ecosystems. By making USD₮ a part of Bitcoin, the business is making sure that the first cryptocurrency in the world stays the foundation of a global decentralized financial system.

By adding USD₮to RGB, users will be able to send and receive assets even when they are not connected to the internet. This will give them the benefits of private and sovereign transactions. This makes Bitcoin more useful by changing it from a way to store wealth to a way to make payments every day. With this move, Tether is not only expanding the reach of stablecoins but also helping to secure Bitcoin’s role in building a freer and more resilient financial future.
