Current overview (not historical)

AI overview

Utexo has opened early access to its Utexo Mint platform, allowing professional operators to test USDT minting, confidential transfers, and redemption within the RGB environment on Bitcoin. The public launch is scheduled for November 28, with planned expansion to the Lightning Network in early 2027. USDT on Bitcoin is issued by Utexo via the USDT0 protocol and is not affiliated with Tether; it is designed with default privacy features to avoid address reuse. Cointelegraph notes that the introduction of private, fast USDT to Bitcoin poses a competitive challenge to established networks like Ethereum and Tron.

    Utexo to launch USDT on Bitcoin via RGB protocol, Lightning support planned for 2027

    Report first recorded Oct 29, 21:55

    Utexo plans to reintroduce Tether's USDT stablecoin to Bitcoin network via the RGB protocol, with public launch scheduled for November 28. The protocol keeps transaction data off-chain while anchoring cryptographic commitments to Bitcoin, enabling private and fast transfers. Lightning Network integration is planned for Q1 2027. The move comes as $300 billion of stablecoin supply circulates on Ethereum and Tron, raising questions about Bitcoin's ability to compete without smart contract functionality.

    Utexo opens early access to Utexo Mint for USDT on Bitcoin ahead of November 28 launch

    Report first recorded Oct 23, 01:09

    Utexo has opened Utexo Mint, a platform for professional operators, to test USDT on Bitcoin via RGB, including minting, confidential transfers, and redemption, before the public launch on November 28. This return of USDT aims to bring dollar liquidity to the Bitcoin ecosystem, opening new markets for trading and BTC-backed lending. USDT on Bitcoin is launched by Utexo using Tether’s USDT0 protocol, not by Tether, and is designed to be private by design, avoiding address reuse and allowing compliance monitoring through a partnership with Crystal Intelligence for AML.
