🛡TON becomes a Cross-Chain Node as LayerZero Launches its USDT Bridge
TON is asserting its status as a a key component in cross-chain infrastructure. The new bridge by LayerZero enables users to transfer USDT between Ethereum, Arbitrum, Tron, and TON. Transactions are executed via the
Stargate Bridge, and the total amount of funds in the network has already reached
#tokens">12 million USDT, although this was deposited in a
single transaction.
TON is evolving into an infrastructure blockchain with high throughput, low fees, and built-in integration with Telegram. Now, it gained the status of a Layer Zero network - a fundamental layer for interacting with other blockchains.
▪️ LayerZero enables cross-chain interactions without the need for centralized bridges, reducing the risk of asset loss
▪️ The network gains access to liquidity from major blockchains, allowing TON projects to attract capital directly from Ethereum, Arbitrum, and Tron
▪️ Integration with LayerZero allows the development of cross-chain applications, connecting TON’s user base to other ecosystems
Previously, USDT could only be bought on TON through centralized exchanges. Now, tokens can be transferred directly from other networks, making them more accessible and convenient for use within TON.
The new cross-chain bridge brought an influx of liquidity, expanding the boundaries of TON ecosystem. Even though it had primarily developed autonomously, it is becoming part of the global crypto market, where users can freely move assets between networks.
This unlocks
new use cases for USDT in TON:
▪️ Flexible payments within Telegram and Web3 applications
▪️ Profitable DeFi tools with minimal fees
▪️ Seamless capital movement between blockchains
The current volume of 12 million USDT is just the beginning 💪. As new services join and the platform gains support, TON is becoming a full-fledged part of the global digital market.
