Interactive Brokers Explores Stablecoin Launch Amid Institutional Crypto Push
Interactive Brokers is evaluating the creation of a proprietary stablecoin to streamline client access to digital assets, joining a wave of traditional finance firms bridging crypto and legacy markets. The move would enable faster settlements and reduced transaction costs within its trading ecosystem.
Stablecoins have become critical infrastructure in crypto markets, offering dollar-pegged stability for payments and trading. JPMorgan, PayPal, and Société Générale have recently launched similar products, signaling growing institutional validation of blockchain-based settlement solutions.
