1月29日消息，Universal Digital Intl Limited 宣布推出首个获得阿联酋中央银行批准的美元稳定币 USDU。这一举措使该公司成为首家在阿联酋注册的外国支付代币发行机构，同时也是根据阿联酋支付代币服务监管条例 (PTSR) 注册的首个同类代币。
Universal 表示，USDU 的推出标志着阿联酋在受监管数字资产基础设施建设上的重要里程碑。作为美元计价的结算代币，USDU 可用于机构间的合规支付和数字资产结算，满足阿联酋规定要求数字资产和衍生品交易必须以法币或注册的外国支付代币结算的需求。Universal 高级执行官 Juha Viitala 强调，USDU 为数字价值设立了新的合规标准，为机构用户提供明确的法律框架与信心。
USDU 由阿联酋国民银行 (Emirates NBD)、Mbank 和 Mashreq 持有的美元储备以 1:1 支持。此外，Universal 已与受迪拜虚拟资产监管局 (VARA) 监管的 Aquanow 达成合作，借助其受监管服务提供商网络，推动 USDU 在更广泛的数字资产生态系统中应用。
这一发展与稳定币发行商 Circle 在阿联酋的计划形成呼应。去年12月，Circle 获得阿布扎比全球市场金融服务监管局许可，获准作为货币服务提供商运营，计划在阿联酋及中东和非洲地区推广美元稳定币和链上支付基础设施服务。USDC 作为全球市值第二大稳定币，将与 USDU 一同推动企业、开发者和金融机构在合规环境下使用数字支付工具。
综合来看，USDU 的上线不仅为阿联酋提供了安全、高效的美元结算选项，也进一步推动了受监管数字资产市场的发展。这意味着中东地区的企业和金融机构在合规框架下，能够更加便捷地使用美元稳定币进行跨境支付和链上结算，助力数字经济稳健增长。
