USD₮0 brings omnichain mobility to @Tether_to via @LayerZero_Core OFT standard (no wrapping, no synthetics).
The mechanism is simple: USDT is locked or burned on one chain and minted 1:1 on another.
→ On Ethereum, $1.27B in USDT is currently locked via the USDT Adapter smart contract.
→ That’s 1.72% of all USDT supply on Ethereum ($73B), serving as the liquidity base for @USDT0_to.

When a user sends USD₮0 from Ethereum to another chain, USDT is locked in the adapter contract. That action triggers minting on the destination chain. Redemption works in reverse—burn, then release. This ensures native USDT moves securely without duplication.
3/
In terms of supply per chain, Arbitrum leads followed by Unichain Flare and Ink.
→ Transfer volume has surged, weekly volume across all chains now exceeds $8B, led by Arbitrum and Unichain. → Unichain alone now drives over 50% of total USD₮0 transfer volume.
→ 2.16M addresses have transacted in the past 30 days (9.3% increase MoM).
4/
Median transfer size varies widely across chains. Arbitrum, Flare, and Corn show the largest medians, often between $300–$600.
Transfer velocity, which measures how often tokens circulate weekly, is highest on Unichain (>20x), followed by Flare and Corn. High velocity implies efficient capital reuse and active liquidity.
