USDT Returns to Bitcoin: RGB and UTEXO Enable Private Lightning Settlements
Tether and UTEXO are launching Bitcoin-native USDT via the RGB protocol and Lightning network, enabling private, instant settlements. The integration leverages Bitcoin's UTXO model for security and privacy, contrasting with address-reuse practices on EVM blockchains. UTEXO aims to compete with TRON's dominance in USDT volume.
