At the moment, the option to withdraw tokens through OMNI platform is available for all holders of U.S. Dollar Tether (USDT) stablecoin.

Also, Tethers (USDT) can be withdrawn through Ethereum (ETH), Tron (TRX) and in the form of Binance Chain's native BEP2 tokens.

What is OMNI?

OMNI (Omni Layer) is a platform for creating digital assets on the top of Bitcoin (BTC) blockchain. It was the first-ever platform on which Tether (USDT) stablecoin launched.

Meanwhile, since 2019, the quantity of Tethers (USDT) minted on Ethereum (ETH) surpassed that of OMNI. Then, in 2021, Tron (TRX) became the most popular USDT technical platform.

Also, USDT tokens are minted on Solana (SOL), Eos (EOS) and Algorand (ALGO) blockchains as well as on Bitcoin Cash's Simple Ledger Protocol (SLP).
