Bitcoin.com adds UAE's first central bank-backed stablecoin USDU to its wallet for retail users

Bitcoin.com has integrated USDU, the UAE's first US dollar-backed stablecoin registered with the Central Bank of the UAE, into its self-custodial wallet on web and mobile. This marks USDU's first major retail distribution, expanding its use beyond institutional clients. USDU is backed 1:1 by US dollar reserves held in major UAE banks and operates under strict regulatory oversight. Bitcoin.com plans to enhance USDU's functionality with peer-to-peer payments, educational tools, and payment acceptance for its services, signaling a push to broaden stablecoin adoption in retail crypto markets.
