Paolo Ardoino, CEO of Tether: "With RGB, USD₮ gains a powerful new pathway on Bitcoin." LUGANO, Switzerland, Aug. 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Tether announced today its intention to issue USD₮ on RGB, a next-generation protocol for issuing and transacting digital assets on Bitcoin and the Lightning Network. The RGB Protocol Association welcomes the announcement as a strong signal for builders and institutions seeking private, scalable and user-controlled asset rails on the world’s most secure network. RGB reached mainnet readiness earlier this year with the v0.11.1 release, enabling developers to issue and manage assets using client-side validation and Bitcoin as a commitment layer. This design keeps asset data off-chain while anchoring proofs to Bitcoin transactions – minimizing chain bloat, preserving privacy, and enabling Lightning compatibility. "Bitcoin deserves a stablecoin that feels truly native, lightweight, private, and scalable," said Paolo Ardoino, CEO of Tether. "With RGB, USD₮ gains a powerful new pathway on Bitcoin, reinforcing our belief in Bitcoin as the foundation of a freer financial future." With USD₮ on RGB, users and service providers will be able to: Hold and transfer USD₮ alongside bitcoin in the same wallet; Leverage private, client-validated transactions that don’t reveal balances or flows on-chain; Integrate with the Lightning Network to achieve instant settlement experiences, using RGB’s transport extensions. Why it matters RGB extends Bitcoin beyond a store of value, enabling stablecoins, tokenized assets, and programmable rights that inherit Bitcoin’s security model while keeping users in control. Adoption by major issuers like Tether can catalyze wallet support, merchant adoption, and cross-chain liquidity bridges without new L1 opcodes or consensus changes.
