Morph integrates omnichain USDT0 to unify stablecoin liquidity across 18 blockchains
The payments-focused network says the move removes the need for developers to manage multiple bridged token contracts
Morph, an Ethereum-based blockchain designed for payment settlement, has integrated USDT0, an omnichain version of Tether's USDT stablecoin powered by LayerZero, the cross-chain messaging protocol.
The integration, now live on Morph's mainnet, gives developers access to unified USDT liquidity across more than 18 blockchains through a single token standard rather than a patchwork of bridged and wrapped versions.
USDT0 uses a burn-and-mint mechanism that destroys tokens on the source chain and mints an equivalent amount from Tether's canonical supply on the destination chain, creating what the companies describe as a single omnichain asset.
Morph said the integration is aimed at payment applications, merchant tools and decentralised finance (DeFi) protocols that would otherwise need to manage multiple bridged token contracts across different networks.
The company highlighted its payments-focused infrastructure, which includes block times below 300 milliseconds and zero-fee stablecoin transfers, as suited to use cases such as merchant settlement, remittances, crypto card issuance and treasury operations.
