Gem Wallet has announced the launch of expanded cross-chain USDT functionality, aiming to simplify stablecoin usage across more than 10 blockchain networks.
The open-source self-custody wallet said the upgrade addresses long-standing fragmentation issues affecting users who move USDT between chains.
USDT’s market capitalisation has surpassed $140 billion, increasing demand for efficient and secure cross-chain transfers.
Users currently face challenges navigating multiple USDT standards across networks such as:
- Tron
- Ethereum
- Solana
- BNB Chain and
- TON
Gem Wallet said its new infrastructure consolidates USDT transfers, swaps and bridging into a single interface.
The wallet now offers native USDT support across more than 10 blockchains without requiring manual chain switching.
A smart asset search feature automatically detects USDT balances across supported networks.
Gem Wallet has integrated decentralised swap providers including:
- THORChain
- Near Intents
- Uniswap and
- Across Protocol
The system automatically routes transactions through the lowest-cost swap or bridge option available.
Users retain full control over network fees when transferring or trading USDT.
The wallet includes built-in protection against address poisoning attacks that target stablecoin holders.
Gem Wallet said suspicious transactions are automatically flagged to reduce the risk of scams.
The platform operates under a fully open-source model, allowing public verification of its codebase.
Private keys remain fully controlled by users, reinforcing a non-custodial security model.
Biometric authentication is supported on mobile devices for additional protection.
Gem Wallet has also expanded global fiat access through integrations with MoonPay, Paybis and Transak.
The on-ramp and off-ramp services support more than 120 countries and over 30 payment methods.
USDT has become the backbone of crypto liquidity, but users are forced to become chain experts just to move their stablecoins.
Max Costa said.
He added that the platform aims to reduce losses linked to address poisoning and unnecessary bridging fees.
Gem Wallet said address poisoning scams resulted in losses exceeding $100 million during 2024.
The wallet is available on iOS, Android and web platforms.
At the time of reporting, TRON price was $0.2838.
