River.Inc, a DeFi protocol that aims to unify liquidity across multiple blockchain networks via its native stablecoin (satUSD), today announced the launch of its stable asset on Stargate Finance, a cross-chain native asset transfer protocol built on LayerZero, a cross-chain interoperability infrastructure that allows users to seamlessly transfer native assets across chains. With this partnership, River leverages Stargate Finance’s (LayerZero) cross-chain infrastructure to drive interoperability of its satUSD stablecoin, turning the stable asset into a more capital-efficient, omnichain stablecoin with deep multichain liquidity in the DeFi market.
River.Inc, formally known as Satoshi Protocol, is a chain-abstraction stablecoin system that connects stablecoins, assets, yields, and collateral, allowing them to move across chains. Powered by its own stablecoin (satUSD), River removes the fragmentation between blockchains, allowing users to seamlessly transfer, use and earn stablecoins in the broader DeFi environment.

River makes satUSD compatible with all chains
The above integration allowed River to upgrade its satUSD stablecoin with LayerZero’s OFT (Omnichain fungible token) standard, an upgrade that now allows satUSD users and holders to efficiently and easily move satUSD across chains without leaving River’s protocol interface.
Stargate Finance is a recognized omnichain liquidity transfer protocol built on LayerZero, an interoperability network that enables efficient multichain communications without undermining decentralization or security. Using LayerZero’s messaging architecture, Stargate provides secure, real-time, and native asset bridging across blockchains.
The above partnership allowed satUSD to leverage LayerZero’s OFT standard to eliminate liquidity fragmentation, enable cross-chain token transfers, and ensure fast, secure, and cost-efficient transactions for both token holders and businesses.
Using LayerZero, satUSD now allows users to move their stablecoin tokens seamlessly between blockchains without relying on centralized platforms. The integration of LayerZero’s OFT standard allows satUSD to interact natively with other crypto assets over blockchains without the need for asset smart contracts, security issues, or risks from mid-chain consensus mechanisms. This technology integration now combines all existing satUSD liquidity pools, ensuring deep liquidity for customers on all supported blockchains.
Deepening the DeFi Cross-Chain Experience
Through its partnership with Stargate Finance, River has unlocked new opportunities for interoperability and cross-chain expansion. By bridging multiple chains through Stargate’s LayerZero, River is laying a foundation for truly interconnected Web3 applications.
The integration of Stargate and LayerZero shows that River is preparing to bring more networks, assets, utilities and opportunities to its stablecoin ecosystem.
