USDT0 Now Live on Velora — The New Standard for Crosschain Stablecoin Trading

Dec 9, 2025

Partnerships

Crosschain swaps are often slow, risky, and fragmented. Bridges break, gas fees stack up, and wrapped tokens create liquidity headaches. Velora has always aimed to eliminate that friction—and now we’re taking the next step.

USDT0, Tether’s omnichain stablecoin, is now integrated directly into Velora, enabling a radically safer and more seamless stablecoin trading experience across chains like Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum, and Polygon.

With USDT0 inside Velora’s intent-based routing engine, every swap becomes faster, safer, and completely gasless—without touching a bridge.

Why Swapping USDT Between Chains Has Been a Pain

The average user swapping USDT between chains typically follows an outdated and often stressful workflow. You need to select a bridge, approve the transfer, sign multiple transactions, wait for confirmations, and pay gas on both sides. If liquidity isn’t available on the receiving chain, you might need additional swaps or even another bridge. Every step adds friction, and every added contract introduces new risk.

This experience is not only cumbersome for everyday users but also unsustainable for traders who expect reliability and speed. The industry has tried to solve this through wrapped tokens, synthetic versions of USDT, or network-specific liquidity pools, but those solutions created new problems: inconsistent liquidity, varied asset representations, and a growing list of token versions that are not interchangeable.

USDT0 finally fixes the root issue by standardizing USDT so that it operates seamlessly across chains without the need for wrapped alternatives.

What Makes USDT0 Different? A Unified, Native Crosschain Stablecoin

USDT0 is the same trusted Tether stablecoin—now rebuilt for the omnichain world. Powered by LayerZero’s OFT (Omnichain Fungible Token) standard, USDT0 can move natively between chains without bridges, wrapped assets, or synthetic versions.

Core Improvements USDT0 Brings to the Ecosystem

One token standard across all integrated chains
More secure cross-chain transfers
No wrapping or liquidity fragmentation
Lower cost, fewer steps, better UX

This creates a truly unified stablecoin that protocols and users can trust across crypto ecosystems.

What USDT0 on Velora Means for Your Trades

Velora’s mission is simple: make DeFi frictionless and abstract all the technical complexity for users to simply do their trades without any back-and-forth steps.
At Velora, we deliver gasless execution, MEV protection, and intent-based routing so users never worry about chain complexity.

Now with USDT0, your swaps with the leading stablecoin get a major upgrade:

✅ Native Liquidity, Zero Bridge Risk

Velora can route USDT0 through its unified, native liquidity—no bridge approvals, delays, or smart-contract risk.

⚡ Faster Execution With True Finality

Because Velora agents can settle intents directly with USDT0, cross-chain trades confirm faster and fail less.
This means better prices, fewer retries, and minimal latency.

🌊 Unified Liquidity = Less Slippage

USDT0 removes fragmented, chain-specific USDT versions.
Velora can now optimize across 160+ DEXs and protocols with deeper, more consistent liquidity.

🛡 Still Gasless, Still MEV-Safe

Nothing changes about gas abstraction and MEV protection. There is a huge plus because all these now come with fewer crosschain dependencies and less risk overall.

Who Benefits From Bridge-Free USDT0 on Velora?

DeFi Traders now enjoy faster, safer, gasless swaps across chains—without touching a bridge.

Anyone participating in the multichain ecosystem stands to benefit from the addition of USDT0 on Velora. Traders who frequently move assets across networks will find that the process now feels dramatically more straightforward. They are no longer forced to jump through hoops when shifting stablecoin funds between Ethereum, Arbitrum, Polygon, or Base.

Multichain Users can now move assets for yield and farming, seamlessly.

Users maximizing yield opportunities across different networks will find it far easier to rebalance portfolios without losing time or exposing themselves to the risks associated with bridges. Traders and onchain participants who often need liquidity on different ecosystems can now move their stablecoin funds without unnecessary friction. Builders integrating Velora’s API can now offer their users high-performance cross-chain transactions that feel more like interacting with a unified, chain-abstracted system than navigating a fragmented blockchain landscape.

New crypto or DeFi users finally onboarded on crosschain

One category of users for which USDT0 is a total game-changer are users who previously avoided crosschain swaps because they felt too technical or dangerous can now participate with significantly greater confidence. USDT0 removes many of the hazards and complications that defined the previous era of cross-chain trading.

If you’ve avoided cross-chain swaps because of risk, complexity, or bridge failures, USDT0 removes those barriers.

Why USDT0 Actually Matters for the Future of DeFi

Stablecoins power nearly every part of DeFi—but until now, they’ve been siloed by chain. This created enormous friction for traders, protocols, and builders.

USDT0 changes the model entirely:

USDT becomes fully portable across chains
Liquidity becomes unified, not fragmented
Protocols like Velora can route more efficiently
Users enjoy near-instant, gasless, bridge-free swaps

Velora’s intent-based architecture fits this perfectly:
You declare your intent, and our agents handle everything else—securely, natively, and crosschain.

With USDT0 on Velora:

Unified liquidity = better prices
No bridge slippage or MEV exposure
Faster, safer stablecoin execution
A cleaner, simpler user experience

This is what frictionless DeFi looks like.
