Bitfinex Enables Deposits and Withdrawals for Tether USD (USDt) on The Open Network (TON)

We're pleased to announce that Bitfinex customers can deposit and withdraw Tether USD (USDt) using The Open Network (TON) transport layer, effective 09:30 AM UTC on 29/04/2024. 

This new feature follows the integration of USDt onto The Open Network (TON), a fast and scalable blockchain and network project, capable of handling millions of transactions per second if necessary, which is both user and service provider-friendly.

Following this latest integration, Bitfinex customers are now able to deposit USDt across 18 blockchains and withdraw USDt across 15 blockchains*. This includes Algorand, Avalanche, Bitcoin Cash's Simple Ledger Protocol (SLP), Ethereum, EOS, Liquid Network, Omni, Polygon, Polygon zkEVM, Tezos, Tron, Solana, Polkadot, Kusama, the Near Network, Kava, Celo and now, The Open Network. 

* Withdrawals of USDt on Kusama, Bitcoin Cash SLP, and Omni Layer blockchains are no longer being supported as of 01/09/2023. See the full announcement here.

The TON token is also available to trade on Bitfinex against USD and USDt.
