We're thrilled to announce that Tenderly now fully supports Stable (Stablechain), the world's first dedicated Layer 1 blockchain designed for and powered entirely by USDT. Developers building on Stablechain can now leverage Tenderly's advanced developer tools to develop and test in isolated environments, debug USDT flows, and simulate transactions before deployment.
The future of payments built on USDT infrastructure
Stablechain represents a paradigm shift in blockchain architecture – the first "stablechain" designed from inception to handle the world's most used digital asset. With over $150 billion in circulation and 500 million users globally, USDT deserves purpose-built infrastructure, and Stablechain delivers exactly that: a high-performance Layer 1 where USDT isn't just another token, but the native foundation of the entire network.
“With $27.6 trillion in stablecoin volume annually and 500M+ users, the scale demands purpose-built infrastructure. General blockchains treat stablecoins as afterthoughts, but Stable puts USDT first with native gas, optimized settlement, and enterprise-grade features designed specifically for digital dollar flows.”
Backed by USDT0 and the Bitfinex teams, and led by seasoned Web3 experts Matt Tabbiner, Brian Mehler, Sam Kazemian, and Thibault Reichelt, the Stable team seeks to address USDT fragmentation and inefficient rails with unpredictable costs, broken UX, enterprise gaps, and excluded users. Stable combines high throughput, predictable performance, and regulatory alignment - necessary rails that global institutions and payment systems can trust and rely on.
By using USDT as the native gas token and eliminating fees for peer-to-peer transactions, Stablechain revolutionizes the global movement of digital dollars. This focused approach creates an optimal environment for payment applications, remittances, and institutional settlement, making stablecoin transactions feel like sending a text message rather than navigating complex blockchain infrastructure.
Key features of Stablechain:
- USDT as native gas: Stable is the first-ever blockchain that relies solely on USDT as its native currency. You can use USDT to pay transaction fees and avoid volatility.
- Gas-free P2P transfers: Gasless by design, Stable allows you to send USDT to anyone, anywhere, without transaction costs. Free peer transfers.
- Sub-second finality: Transactions settle instantly, making payments feel like cash, not crypto. Fast, simple, and predictable.
- 10,000+ TPS capacity: Built to handle real-world financial volume at a global scale.
- Full EVM compatibility: Deploy existing smart contracts and dApps without modification. Same environment with USDT-native benefits.
- Enterprise-grade features: Dedicated blockspace, confidential transfers, and institutional compliance tools. Institutional-level performance and reliability.

With this integration, developers building USDT-powered applications on Stablechain gain access to Tenderly's full-stack infrastructure, ensuring their payment solutions are thoroughly tested, optimized, and monitored throughout the entire development and production process.
Tenderly Node RPC: Connect to Stablechain with our high-performance, globally distributed RPC infrastructure. With 99.99% uptime SLA, sub-100ms median latency, and intelligent traffic routing, USDT payment applications will have the reliable infrastructure needed to process transactions at the scale Stablechain enables.
Tenderly Virtual TestNets: Create isolated, customizable replicas of Stablechain's mainnet or testnet environments. Test USDT payment flows, simulate high-volume transaction scenarios, and validate cross-border payment logic without any risk. Perfect for testing gas-free transfer mechanisms, USDT-denominated smart contracts, and complex multi-party settlement systems.
Explorer & Debugger: Navigate Stablechain's USDT-native transaction data with our intuitive explorer and debug even the most complex payment operations. Trace USDT flows across multiple contracts, understand gas optimization in a USDT-denominated environment, and analyze exactly how your smart contracts interact with Stablechain's unique architecture.
Tenderly Simulations: Preview transaction outcomes before sending them onchain. Essential for payment platforms where accuracy is critical – simulate USDT transfers, test edge cases in payment routing, and ensure your users' transactions will execute exactly as intended on a blockchain where every fee is paid in stablecoins.
Alerting & Monitoring: Set up real-time monitoring for your USDT applications. Track payment volumes, monitor gas-free transfer patterns, get alerts on failed transactions, and automate responses to critical events. Essential for maintaining the reliability that global payment infrastructure demands.
