Bitcoin.com is integrating USDU, a US dollar-backed stablecoin registered with the Central Bank of the UAE, into its self-custodial web and mobile wallet.

USDU is issued by Abu Dhabi-based Universal Digital and is the first and currently only Foreign Payment Token registered under the UAE central bank’s Payment Token Services Regulation. Universal is also regulated by the Abu Dhabi Global Market’s Financial Services Regulatory Authority to issue fiat-referenced tokens.

According to Wednesday’s announcement, the Ethereum-based stablecoin will be available for users to hold, send and receive through the wallet, while swap and buy-and-sell functionality is expected to be added later through third-party providers.

Bitcoin.com said it plans to accept USDU for designated services and work toward enabling payments between users and merchants across its products, though availability will vary by jurisdiction.

Universal launched USDU in January. Under the country’s Payment Token Services Regulation, payments for digital assets and digital asset derivatives may only be made in fiat or a registered Foreign Payment Token.

The Bitcoin.com integration follows a broader distribution push for USDU. Zodia Custody added support for the stablecoin in July, allowing institutional clients to hold and transfer it, while a USDT-USDU liquidity pool launched on Uniswap in August, adding decentralized liquidity for the token.

Famous Trader Speaks Out After Rally: "Bitcoin Needs Another Level for Further Growth"

After a period of dormancy, the crypto market showed a strong upward trend, with Bitcoin ($BTC) briefly surpassing $69,000 and Ethereum (ETH) rising above $2,100. Market capitalization grew to around $2.4 trillion. This surge has reignited speculation that Bitcoin's bear market may be nearing its end. Trader Killa, known for accurate bear market predictions, stated that BTC has begun recovering from its lows. He warned investors might miss the next rally by waiting for a "perfect bottom." Killa maintains a long-term Bitcoin target above $150,000 and suggested the traditional four-year market cycle might change. He identified the 200-day moving average near $69,500 as a critical level. A sustained break above it could confirm a return to a bull phase. Bitcoin recently faced resistance around this level, underscoring its technical importance. Institutional voices also express optimism. Matt Hougan, CIO of Bitwise, noted that blockchain-based yield-generating assets are being revalued, with some protocols poised for higher market caps. A Bitwise Europe report highlighted renewed institutional demand, citing inflows into ETPs, high long-term holder balances, and stable corporate treasury demand. Hougan further stated Bitcoin is becoming more resilient to negative news. He estimated that even a 1-2% allocation from major wealth managers like Morgan Stanley could channel hundreds of billions of dollars into the crypto sector.

What to Expect from Bitcoin's Price After Today's Sharp Surge? Only One Hurdle Left to Overcome!

Bitcoin ($BTC) surged sharply after the U.S. Treasury Department announced expanded liquidity support for the long-term bond market, triggering one of the largest short liquidations since October 2020. According to Michael Nagye, founder of The DeFi Report, the timing of Bitcoin's jump followed the Treasury's announcement of enhanced long-term bond buyback operations starting in September. Nagye views this as a second "moderate quantitative easing" measure implemented recently to alleviate pressure on long-term Treasury yields. He noted that gold reacted first to the macroeconomic shift, followed by Bitcoin. However, a significant portion of Bitcoin's move was attributed to short liquidations and market positioning changes rather than new, sustained spot demand. As Bitcoin approaches the $68,000-$69,000 range, key technical levels are back in focus: $68,500 (short-term holder cost basis), $68,800 (21-week moving average), and $69,100 (200-day moving average). The current price action is seen as crucial in determining whether the uptrend will continue. While the rally is notable given the Treasury's actions, Nagye emphasized it remains largely liquidation-driven at this stage. The key question now is whether sustainable market demand will emerge to support further gains. If Bitcoin can break through and convert the $68,500-$69,100 resistance zone into support, it could pave the way for a new bullish rally.
