VelaFi, a stablecoin-powered financial infrastructure platform enabling fast, compliant global money movement for businesses, today announced a strategic integration with Fireblocks, the platform securing more than $4 trillion in digital asset transfers annually, to strengthen the custody layer supporting its enterprise clients operating across Latin America, Asia and the United States.
According to Fireblocks’ State of Stablecoins 2025 report, 90% of respondents are already taking action on stablecoins—signaling that the market has moved beyond experimentation and into real-world execution. As enterprises scale cross-border operations across multiple currencies, regulatory environments, and payment rails, the security of the underlying custody infrastructure becomes a critical requirement, not an afterthought.
VelaFi enables businesses to move value across borders through connected infrastructure spanning global payments, stablecoin settlement, on/off-ramps, and treasury management. Operating across LATAM, Asia and the U.S.——each with its own local rails, currency dynamics, and compliance requirements—means client assets are constantly moving across jurisdictions. At that scale, the security of the underlying custody layer stops being an infrastructure decision and becomes a client trust decision.
Through this integration, Fireblocks' MPC-based custody technology and its network spanning 150+ blockchains will underpin the security framework behind VelaFi's services—helping ensure that client assets remain protected as businesses move value across jurisdictions. For VelaFi's enterprise clients, this means the same custody standard trusted by BNY, Revolut, and Worldpay is now embedded directly into their cross-border payment operations.
In practice, that standard applies equally to every client on the platform—from SMEs taking their first steps into cross-border payments to multinationals managing complex treasury operations globally. Regardless of size or region, the security of client assets is a non-negotiable commitment for both companies, and this partnership is a direct expression of that.
“Our clients rely on VelaFi to operate across multiple financial systems—from accessing liquidity to executing cross-border payments using stablecoins,” said Hongyi Tang, VP of LATAM and CRO at VelaFi. “By integrating Fireblocks, we are strengthening the infrastructure behind these services, giving our clients greater confidence that their assets are protected as they move value across markets.”
"Latin America is one of the fastest-moving markets for stablecoin-powered payments, and the companies winning here are the ones who make security a foundation—not an afterthought," said Jorge Borges, Head of LatAm at Fireblocks. "VelaFi has built something that genuinely reflects how cross-border finance works in this region: multi-rail, multi-currency, and operating under real regulatory complexity. We're proud to provide the infrastructure that gives their clients the confidence to move value at scale."
As VelaFi continues expanding, this integration reflects a deliberate decision to build security into the foundation of that growth—not as a feature, but as a baseline. Beyond custody, both companies are actively exploring deeper integration across payments infrastructure and blockchain network connectivity, with the goal of building a more seamless end-to-end experience for VelaFi's enterprise clients.
