Paxos selects Plume, Hyperliquid, Aptos as primary launch networks for USDGO stablecoin

Paxos has taken its next step in multi-chain stablecoin infrastructure with a targeted launch across key networks.

Summary

• Paxos introduced USDG0, a fully backed omnichain version of its regulated USDG stablecoin using LayerZero’s OFT standard.
• Plume, Hyperliquid, and Aptos were selected as the first networks to deploy USDG0.
• New tooling such as the USDG0 Portal and cross-chain APIs supports unified liquidity and reduces the risks tied to traditional bridges.

Paxos has named three fast-rising networks as the first venues for its new omnichain stablecoin, setting the stage for regulated liquidity across multiple ecosystems.

According to a Nov. 24 press release from Plume, the network will join Hyperliquid and Aptos as primary launch partners for USDG0, the omnichain extension of Paxos’s regulated USDG stablecoin created through LayerZero’s omnichain-fungible token standard.

Paxos expands USDG0 across three high-growth networks

USDG0 carries the same 1:1 reserve model as USDG, backed by cash, short-term U.S. Treasuries, and cash equivalents, with monthly audits conducted by Withum. The asset, according to Paxos, is a unified version of USDG that can move natively across chains without the need for fragmented pools or wrapped tokens.

The model locks USDG in audited contracts while minting USDG0 on destination chains, maintaining regulatory clarity while enabling broad mobility.

Plume said its inclusion in the inaugural launch cohort positions the network as a distribution hub for compliant liquidity. The chain has recorded more than 280,000 active real-world asset holders and $645 million in RWA TVL within five months of mainnet, offering a large retail and institutional base for USDG0’s rollout. 

The team noted that the stablecoin adds yield aligned with U.S. Treasury benchmarks, native liquidity for decentralized finance builders, and direct access for its global user base.

Hyperliquid’s role centers on derivatives. The decentralized perpetuals exchange will apply USDG0 toward yield-aligned trading pairs, lending markets, and new collateral rails for active traders. Community governance plans to introduce programs that expand usage across perpetuals and on-chain funding markets.

Aptos becomes the first network to deploy a Move-native OFT stablecoin through LayerZero. The Aptos Foundation said this supports enterprise-focused applications, tapping the chain’s throughput and compliance-oriented development to attract new liquidity partners.

Paxos views Aptos as a strong fit for stablecoin settlement frameworks used by businesses and institutions.

LayerZero tooling and early integrations shape the rollout

The launch is paired with infrastructure upgrades, including the USDG0 Portal for cross-chain swaps, low-fee APIs for larger transactions, and unified supply mechanics across all supported networks. Paxos is exploring further integrations on Solana, Ethereum, Ink, and X Layer. 

From the outset, this Paxos’ approach places USDG0 in three specialized domains: enterprise-grade settlement on Aptos, derivatives on Hyperliquid, and RWAs on Plume. Paxos expects that these environments will support early adoption while providing a regulated route for further growth.
