TL;DR Anchorage Digital has selected LayerZero as its interoperability partner for regulated stablecoins issued through its platform. Tether’s USAT is the first token to adopt the LayerZero OFT standard under the arrangement. LayerZero supports connectivity across more than 170 networks, but not every Anchorage-issued stablecoin is live across every chain today. Anchorage Digital is putting cross-chain infrastructure directly into its regulated stablecoin stack. The federally chartered digital-asset bank has selected LayerZero as its interoperability partner, using the Omnichain Fungible Token standard to move supported stablecoins between blockchain networks. The first asset through the door is USAT. USAT Becomes The First Live Integration Tether’s USAT, issued through Anchorage Digital Bank, is the first stablecoin on the platform to use the LayerZero standard. LayerZero’s infrastructure supports more than 170 blockchain networks, giving Anchorage a broad technical base for moving regulated dollar tokens across different execution environments without creating separate isolated versions for every chain. That matters because stablecoin fragmentation has become a practical problem. A token can be highly liquid on one network and awkward to use on another, while wrapped or bridged versions introduce additional operational and security assumptions. The OFT model is designed to give issuers a more unified way to manage supply across chains. More Anchorage Stablecoins Are Expected To Follow The rollout is not universal on day one. USAT is the first live token under the integration. Anchorage says other stablecoins, including Western Union’s USDPT and OSL’s USDGO, are expected to join later. That sequencing is important because “170+ networks” describes LayerZero’s wider connectivity footprint, not a claim that every Anchorage-issued token is immediately active on every supported chain. The broader direction, though, is clear. Regulated stablecoin issuers increasingly want cross-chain distribution to be native infrastructure rather than an afterthought. Anchorage is now building that capability into the issuance layer itself. This article was written by the News Desk and edited by Samuel Rae.
