Stablecoin巨头Tether通过Lightning Network将其USDT Stablecoin与比特币网络集成在一起，这是一种旨在增强比特币支付功能的第2层支付协议。

Lightning Labs, the company behind the Lightning Network, developed the integration using the Taproot Assets protocol, which has enabled Bitcoin to support tokenized assets since 2022.

闪电网络背后的公司Lightning Labs使用Taproot Assets协议开发了集成，该协议已使比特币自2022年以来支持令牌化资产。

With a market cap of $139.4 billion — nearly triple that of Circle’s USDC — Tether continues to dominate the stablecoin market. In 2024 alone, it processed $10 trillion in transactions, edging closer to Visa’s $16 trillion.

市值为1,394亿美元（几乎是Circle USDC的三倍），该公司继续占据了Stablecoin市场的主导地位。仅在2024年，它就处理了100万亿美元的交易，更接近Visa的16万亿美元。

The new integration will allow businesses that use the Lightning Network for Bitcoin payments to add USDT as an option without needing additional infrastructure. Stark highlighted that this will enable millions of users to send dollars globally through Bitcoin’s network, while also providing a stable financial tool for those in emerging markets facing currency devaluation.

新的集成将允许使用闪电网络进行比特币付款的企业将USDT作为选项添加，而无需其他基础架构。斯塔克强调，这将使数百万用户能够通过比特币网络在全球范围内发送美元，同时还为面临货币贬值的新兴市场中的人们提供稳定的财务工具。

Beyond payments, Lightning Labs envisions this technology facilitating transactions between AI systems and autonomous vehicles, as well as enabling microtransactions on Lightning.

除了付款之外，闪电实验室还设想了这项技术促进了AI系统和自动驾驶汽车之间的交易，并在闪电上实现了微交易。

The move follows Tether’s recent decision to relocate to El Salvador, the only country where Bitcoin is legal tender. While El Salvador introduced the Lightning-enabled Chivo Wallet in 2021, adoption has been mixed. The government initially required businesses to accept Bitcoin but later made it voluntary as part of a $1.4 billion loan agreement with the IMF.

此举是在Tether最近决定搬到萨尔瓦多的决定之后，这是唯一的比特币是法定招标的国家。埃尔·萨尔瓦多（El Salvador）在2021年推出了支持闪电的Chivo钱包时，采用了。政府最初要求企业接受比特币，但后来将其自愿作为与国际货币基金组织达成14亿美元贷款协议的一部分。
