Tether is preparing to natively issue USDT on the Bitcoin network based on the RGB v0.11.1 protocol, with commercialization and distribution handled by UTEXO. This will mark the return of USDT to the Bitcoin main chain after many years since it first landed on Bitcoin via the Omni protocol in 2014. Viktor Ihnatiuk, co-founder of UTEXO, stated that the company has received support from Tether to promote the implementation of native Bitcoin USDT.

The RGB protocol employs client-side validation and integrates with the Lightning Network, enabling instant, low-cost, and private transactions of USDT while inheriting the security model of Bitcoin UTXO. In the future, users will be able to hold USDT directly through native Bitcoin addresses and complete transactions using Lightning Network wallets that support RGB, without relying on other public chains or intermediaries. Compared to the account model networks where USDT is primarily circulated, such as TRON and Ethereum, RGB naturally supports one-time addresses using the UTXO model and facilitates off-chain payments through the Lightning Network, effectively enhancing transaction privacy. Additionally, UTEXO is deeply integrated with Tether, reducing intermediary fees and data collection, and users can also convert USDT between different public chains at low cost through its already launched cross-chain bridge.
