Tether's USDT0 Gains Momentum For Cross-Chain Liquidity

USDT0 gains momentum as it reaches new volume highs and supply metrics.

Aside from Tether's main stablecoin USDT, it also as USDT0, which is purpose-built for ensuring that there is a better system for transferring USDT balances across different ecosystems and chains. Currently, the supply stands at $4.5B over 19 chains (including Plasma, Arbitrum, Polygon and others) with a +217% increase in 6 months and $56B in volume over the same time frame, a +530% increase.

Paolo Ardoino CEO of Tether describes the use-case of USDT0 as:

"USDT0 introduces a much needed solution for seamless USDT movement across ecosystems.By improving interoperability and reducing friction, it enhances the user experience in ways that align with the broader vision of Tether. It's exciting to see this innovation emerge and tackle real market demand."

Over the last 6 months, the metrics from this initiative have been impressive. In fact, the USDT0 team (which works separately but in unison with the wider Tether project team) had recently celebrated an unofficial 1 year anniversary of the launch and written a recap for the interoperability solution.

With more demand for Tether's products likely in the coming future - Tether Gold and the like - the need for easy accounting and transfer capacity across busy ecosystem chains is vital. The team targets continued issuance across both existing and new candidate chains.
