The Arbitrum Foundation announced today that Arbitrum One was selected to be the core infrastructure provider for USDT0, USDT’s next-generation, interoperable stablecoin solution. With the launch of the Legacy Mesh, Arbitrum One now serves as the primary hub linking USDT deployments – Ethereum, Tron, and TON – to USDT0, creating a seamless liquidity network that eliminates fragmentation and enhances capital efficiency.
The Legacy Mesh, powered by Arbitrum, provides a direct, native solution for moving USDT between major chains, reducing friction while ensuring users can tap into deep liquidity pools with minimal costs. By leveraging LayerZero’s cross-chain interoperability protocol, the Legacy Mesh enables secure, low-cost transfers between USDT chains and the expanding USDT0 ecosystem, bringing stability and reliability to stablecoin transactions at scale.
“Building strong infrastructure for seamless and scalable transactions has always been core to our mission,” said Steven Goldfeder, Co-Founder and CEO of Offchain Labs. “The Legacy Mesh is an important milestone for Arbitrum, ensuring that users and developers have access to deep, liquid markets regardless of the blockchain they are on. We’re thrilled that Arbitrum has been chosen as the hub for this innovation, serving as the foundation for broader USDT adoption while delivering unmatched liquidity and scalability across blockchain networks. Arbitrum is proud to bring this vision to life and look forward to continuing to drive innovation in this industry.”
As the largest USDT0 deployment, Arbitrum enables frictionless on-chain stablecoin movement. Through Arbitrum, USDT holders can access and interact with both USDT chains and USDT0-supported networks, including emerging blockchain ecosystems like Ink, Berachain, and MegaETH. By integrating Arbitrum as a connective layer between traditional and next-generation blockchain ecosystems, the Legacy Mesh accelerates USDT adoption and strengthens stablecoin interoperability across the crypto ecosystem.
By leveraging Arbitrum’s advanced Layer 2 technology, the Legacy Mesh ultimately empowers users and developers to execute faster, more affordable transactions without sacrificing security or liquidity, and cements Arbitrum as the key liquidity hub for USDT. With this collaboration, Tether is poised to provide seamless access to USDT across multiple blockchain networks while paving the way for future innovations in decentralized finance.
