Stablecoins是一項耗資2000億美元的數字資產類別，其價格基於外部資產，主要是美元。
Cryptocurrency stablecoin company Tether is bringing its USDT token to the Bitcoin and Lightning Network blockchains, according to a company post on Thursday.
根據周四的一項公司帖子的報導，Cryptocurrency Stablecoin Company Tether將其USDT令牌帶到了比特幣和閃電網絡區塊鏈。
Stablecoins, a $200 billion digital asset class, have their prices pegged to an external asset, usually the U.S. dollar. They act as a bridge between government-issued money and blockchain-based digital assets and are becoming increasingly popular for everyday uses like payments, savings and remittances, especially in emerging countries.
Stablecoins是一項耗資2000億美元的數字資產類別，其價格與外部資產（通常為美元）掛在一起。它們充當政府發行的資金和基於區塊鏈的數字資產之間的橋樑，並且在日常用途中越來越受歡迎，例如付款，儲蓄和匯款，尤其是在新興國家。
Despite the rapid growth in stablecoin usage over the past few years, activity and supply are largely concentrated on smart contract platforms such as Ethereum, Tron and Solana.
儘管在過去幾年中使用穩定的使用量迅速增長，但活動和供應主要集中在以太坊，Tron和Solana等智能合同平台上。
However, what makes USDT's integration with Bitcoin possible is Taproot Assets, a piece of infrastructure that enables asset issuances on the Bitcoin base layer and transfers over the Lightning Network, a scaling platform designed for fast and low-cost transactions, making micropayments more cost-efficient. The protocol, developed by Lightning Labs and released last year, paves the way for bringing external tokens like stablecoins into the Bitcoin ecosystem.
但是，使USDT與比特幣的集成成為可能的是Taproot Assets，這是一項基礎架構，可以在比特幣底層上發行資產，並在閃電網絡上轉移，這是一個用於快速和低成本交易的縮放平台，使微型付款更具成本成本- 更大的成本- 高效的。該協議由Lightning Labs開發並於去年發布，為將stablecoins之類的外部令牌帶入比特幣生態系統鋪平了道路。
