Stablecoins are a fast-growing segment of the payments world, with various estimates about how large this market will become in the coming years, ranging from $1.6 trillion to $3.7 trillion by 2030.
BVNK, which raised $50 million of funding late last year, processes over $12 billion of stablecoin transactions annually and works with payments giants like Worldpay and Visa. LianLian, a large Asia PSP working with 130 currencies, said it was using Ripple’s cross-border payments technology back in 2022.
"Through this partnership, LianLian Global's merchants can transform idle digital assets into instant cross-border payment fuel,” said BVNK CEO Jesse Hemson-Struthers in a statement. “Together, we're removing technical barriers so businesses worldwide can access these high-speed payment rails and move their money faster than ever before."
