Fireblocks, Polygon, Solana, Stellar & TON Form $10T Consortium to Standardize Stablecoin Payments

Seven leading blockchain infrastructure providers—Fireblocks, Polygon Labs, Mysten Labs, the Monad Foundation, the Solana Foundation, the Stellar Development Foundation, and the TON Foundation—have announced the launch of the Blockchain Payments Consortium (BPC), an industry-wide initiative to standardize digital asset transactions across networks. 15T+ settled on-chain in ￰0￱ now move more than Visa and Mastercard ￰1￱ blockchain payments remain ￰2￱ network runs on different technical and compliance ￰3￱ what happens when it all works together.

“Over the last 18 months, our industry has achieved mainstream adoption, with payments at the forefront,” said Ran Goldi, SVP of Payments and Network at Fireblocks. “As more established players enter the space, improving how we collaborate, coordinate, and operate together is ￰10￱ Blockchain Payments Consortium offers a vital platform to achieve this,” added ￰11￱ Leaders Align Around Interoperability Executives from across the founding members emphasized that interoperability and compliance are the final hurdles for blockchain payments to achieve global scale. “At Polygon Labs, we see payments as the most powerful real-world use case for blockchain,” said Jamal Raees, head of payments at Polygon Labs.

“The future of payments is about connection and simplicity—making it as easy and reliable as sending a text.” Lola Oyelayo-Pearson, director of commerce and consumer product at Mysten Labs, notes that high-friction interactions between fiat and blockchain systems have deterred mainstream adoption. “The future of hybrid payments will not exist without standards for interoperability,” she ￰12￱ Parekh, head of stablecoins and payments at the Monad Foundation, added that aligning innovation with financial regulation is key to scaling blockchain payments globally. “BPC’s framework will help bridge that gap and enable faster, safer, and more consistent payment experiences.” Toward a Global, Trusted Blockchain Payments Network From Solana to Stellar and TON, members share a vision of blockchain payments that combine speed, scalability, and trust.

“Solana enables capital to move at the speed of the internet,” said Sheraz Shere, GM of payments at the Solana Foundation. “BPC will help define shared standards that make blockchain payments as seamless and trusted as any traditional network.” Introducing the Blockchain Payments Consortium (BPC). A new alliance uniting @ton_blockchain , @0xPolygon , @solana , @SuiNetwork , @StellarOrg , @Mysten_Labs , @monad , and @FireblocksHQ to accelerate the future of blockchain payments. Together, we’re defining the standards that… ￰13￱ — Blockchain Payments Consortium (@bpconsortium) November 6, 2025 Raja Chakravorti, chief business officer at the Stellar Development Foundation, emphasized that “true global adoption requires more than just speed—it demands trust, interoperability, and clear standards.” Nikola Plecas, VP of payments at the TON Foundation, concluded: “Through the Blockchain Payments Consortium, we’re uniting networks, institutions, and enterprises to make blockchain payments fast, trusted, scalable, and global.” The BPC will begin operations immediately, with working groups focused on technical standards, compliance frameworks, and institutional integration set to launch in Q1 2025.
