A GUIDE TO STRIPE'S STABLECOIN STACK

Summary from the TLDR Crypto newsletter

Stripe has released a modular stablecoin product stack covering card issuance, treasury management, global payouts, checkout acceptance, fiat on-ramps, cross-chain orchestration via Bridge, and programmable wallets via Privy, with businesses able to adopt individual components or the full suite. Live deployments include Shopify enabling stablecoin acceptance across 34 countries with automatic local-currency settlement for merchants, and Remote.com paying contractors in USDC across 60+ countries 2-3 days faster while cutting over 1% in FX costs. The stack also connects to open infrastructure through Tempo, a blockchain built for payments applications, and Open USD, an open standard for stablecoin issuance. These components collectively give enterprises a single vendor for building stablecoin-native financial products across both traditional and crypto rails.
