Utexo Opens Early Access to USD₮ on Bitcoin Through Utexo Mint

Utexo opens early access to Utexo Mint, allowing professional operators to test a bridged version of USD₮ on Bitcoin Signet and prepare their integrations ahead of November’s public launch.

Professional operators can now test bridged USD₮ on Bitcoin Signet and get their integrations ready for November’s public launch.

Dubai, UAE, October 22, 2026 — Utexo has opened Utexo Mint, its dedicated platform for professional operators preparing to support Utexo’s bridged version of USD₮ on Bitcoin. Testing is now available on Bitcoin Signet, ahead of the public launch scheduled for November 28.

The return of USD₮ through Utexo’s bridged version of the token creates an opportunity to bring dollar liquidity into the Bitcoin ecosystem, opening new markets for trading and BTC-backed lending. Operators who integrate early can be among the first to offer it at launch, positioning themselves to capture initial demand and build market share as adoption grows.

Today, Utexo is opening onboarding to exchanges, wallets, market makers, OTC desks, trading firms, and other professional operators looking to participate in the November rollout.

One Month to Get Ready

Utexo Mint is a dedicated platform for verified operators to mint and redeem Utexo’s bridged version of USD₮ on Bitcoin.

Within its sandbox environment on Bitcoin Signet, operators can test minting, confidential transfers, and redemption via RGB, the protocol Utexo uses to issue and transfer assets on Bitcoin. The testing period gives operators time to validate their transaction flows and finalize their integrations ahead of the launch.

Utexo will also offer tools to manage liquidity across supported networks and convert between fiat and Utexo’s bridged version of USD₮, giving operators greater flexibility in how they source and move funds.

Bringing USD₮ Back Home to Bitcoin

First launched on Bitcoin in 2014, USD₮ is now returning through Utexo’s bridged version of the token, bringing deep stablecoin liquidity and expanding what businesses can do on the network.

Utexo’s bridged version of USD₮ will be private by design, allowing individuals to hold and transfer funds without publicly exposing their transaction details. Businesses will be able to protect sensitive commercial activity while maintaining the controls required for regulatory compliance.

The rollout will take place in two phases. The first begins on November 28 with the public launch on Bitcoin through partner wallets and exchanges, introducing liquidity for swap providers and lending platforms.

The second phase, planned for Q1 2027, will extend Utexo’s bridged version of USD₮ to the Lightning Network for near-instant payments.

Join the Launch

Utexo is accepting onboarding requests from professional operators interested in participating in the public launch.

Request a demo of Utexo Mint to begin the onboarding process. Approved operators can then access the sandbox and prepare their integrations alongside the partners already working toward launch.
