M^0 is integrating Wormhole’s NTT framework to take its stablecoin, M, natively multichain to chains including Arbitrum, Base, Solana, and Optimism. This integration expands M^0’s reach and brings its innovative stablecoin solution to new user bases across various blockchain ecosystems.

M To Go Natively Multichain with NTT

M^0 is a decentralized infrastructure layer for the issuance of M, a next-generation stablecoin backed by high-quality real-world reserves such as U.S. treasuries. M, issued through a decentralized protocol by a federation of minters, aims to set a new standard for digital currencies. It offers seamless blockchain interoperability and enhanced transparency, positioning itself as a more programmable and less fragmented digital parallel to the US dollar across diverse blockchain ecosystems.

To expand M’s reach and make it available on multiple chains, M^0 will integrate Wormhole messaging and the NTT framework.

What is NTT?

Wormhole’s Native Token Transfers (NTT) is an open and composable framework for seamlessly transferring native tokens across blockchains while preserving their intrinsic properties and preventing liquidity fragmentation. NTT is already powering natively multichain tokens for leading projects such as Lido, Sky, JitoSOL, ether.fi, and Wormhole’s W token, demonstrating its industry-wide impact and reliability.

Why Does it Matter?

By integrating with NTT, M^0 will maintain full control over its token’s behavior on each chain, including aspects such as customizability, metadata management, and ownership or upgradeability. This ensures compatibility with any token standard or governance system, offering unparalleled flexibility and adaptability. This integration enables a wide range of users, from individuals to large institutions and DeFi developers, to effortlessly utilize M across multiple blockchain ecosystems.

Take Your Token Multichain with NTT

NTT is already being used by some of crypto’s most systemically important assets, like Lido’s wstETH, to unify users and liquidity.
