🌉 Story Protocol Gets Hydrated

Stargate announces deployment of Hydra to Story Protocol's Odyssey Testnet, expanding cross-chain capabilities:
- Enables bridging of stablecoins ($USDC, $USDT) and $WETH across all Stargate-connected chains
- Provides canonical stablecoins for Story Protocol ecosystem
- Unlocks true liquidity interoperability for users and developers
This follows recent integration with LightLink Chain and USD0 expansion on Ethereum and Arbitrum.
Developers interested in building omnichain experiences can access documentation at Stargate's GitBook.
The Omnichain is coming to Story. Stargate will be deploying Hydra to @StoryProtocol's Odyssey Testnet, providing the canonical stablecoins, and $WETH, for the ecosystem. Developers will be able to bridge $USDC, $USDT and (W)ETH from all of Stargate's connected chains ⛓️
Story’s final testnet, Odyssey, is now live. Nearly 100 ecosystem partners are building blockchain's next killer apps on Odyssey. ꧁IP꧂ is inevitable.
.@LightLinkChain will be utilising Stargate's Hydra for the canonical stablecoins within their ecosystem! You can now bridge USDC, USDT and ETH to LightLink from all Stargate-enabled chains 🔥 The Omnichain is growing. Bridge here: tinyurl.com/BridgeToLightL…
.@StargateFinance is now live on LightLink! With $40B in volume, Stargate is the largest bridge and app on @LayerZero_Core Our ecosystem partners can now benefit from Bridged USDC + USDT, serving as the canonical stablecoins for the ecosystem stargate.finance/bridge?dstChai…
It's time for a new OFT! @usualmoney's $USD0 and $USD0++ are now live on Ethereum and Arbitrum, and Stargate is here to support the expansion! You can bridge your stablecoins at: tinyurl.com/USD0onStargate 🔥
🚀 Partnership alert : Usual x Stargate We're thrilled to join forces with @StargateFinance! This brings seamless cross-chain transfers for $USD0 & $USD0++, connecting Ethereum ↔️ Arbitrum. We're just starting to boost cross-chain liquidity and DeFi access. 🧵 Read on 👇
