Stablecoin Game-Changer: Tether-Backed Blockchain ’Stable’ Secures $28M to Revolutionize Payments
Move over, slowpoke banks—Stable just turbocharged the stablecoin race. The Tether-focused blockchain startup landed a $28 million war chest to build the next-gen payment rails for USDT and friends.
Why TradFi should sweat this deal
That funding round buys more than engineering talent—it’s a direct challenge to legacy cross-border systems. Think SWIFT networks gulping coffee as Stable’s team codes round-the-clock to make dollar-pegged transactions near-free and instant.
The cynical hedge fund take
Wall Street’s already placing bets: half this cash will go to regulatory lobbyists, the other half to marketing buzzwords like 'Web3 financial infrastructure.' But with Tether’s $110B+ market cap backing the play? This might actually ship before the next Fed rate hike.
One thing’s certain—when stablecoins stop being a crypto niche and start eating Visa’s lunch, Stable plans to be holding the fork.
