Tether has announced the integration of USDT on Bitcoin’s base layer and the Lightning Network, aiming to enhance stablecoin efficiency while maintaining Bitcoin’s security. The move allows for instant, low-cost transactions, expanding the usability of USDT across the Bitcoin ecosystem.
Through the Taproot Assets protocol, Tether enables USDT to operate on Bitcoin without compromising decentralization. The integration is expected to provide seamless and scalable stablecoin transactions, benefiting merchants, developers, and everyday users.
Tether’s expansion comes amid regulatory scrutiny in the U.S. and recent delistings in the European Union under MiCA regulations. However, the company continues to secure new licenses and increase adoption globally, reinforcing its dominance in the stablecoin market.
With over 350 million users, USDT’s presence on the Lightning Network positions it as a critical tool for fast and reliable digital payments.
