Stripe doubles down on blockchain and stablecoins, aiming to become 'AWS for money'


Global payments giant Stripe is building what it calls the "AWS for money," and crypto tech is at the center of that plan.

Speaking at the RWA Summit in Cannes, France, Adrien Duchâteau, Stripe's head of crypto go-to-market, said the company is now integrating stablecoins and blockchain across its core payment stack as it looks to modernize how money moves globally.

"We’re putting product by product more of our stack onchain," he said.

The move builds on the firm's long, if uneven, history with crypto. Stripe was one of the earliest major tech companies to embrace bitcoin , enabling BTC payments as early as 2014 before pulling back in 2018 as volatility made it impractical for merchants, Duchâteau said. The company returned in 2021 with a dedicated crypto team, betting that the underlying technology had matured enough to support real-world use, he added.

Speeding up payments with stablecoins

The company's blockchain ambition focuses on fixing a core problem: global payments remain slow and expensive. Cross-border transfers, Duchâteau explained, still rely on systems like SWIFT, which can take days to settle. For platforms paying creators or contractors, that delay often dictates payout schedules.

Stripe processes nearly $2 trillion in annual payments — roughly 2% of the global GDP — and serves over 5 million businesses around the globe, so even incremental improvements to settlement could have wide-reaching effects, he said.

"We’re operating in T+3 networks," he said, meaning that a transaction often takes three days from the moment of payment to settlement. "If you reduce that to zero, that is a magnitude of change."

To realize that vision, Stripe acquired stablecoin infrastructure firm Bridge for $1.1 billion in 2024, then bought crypto wallet provider Pri

Will Bitcoin’s Major Rally Continue? Here’s What the Experts Say

Cryptocurrency analysis platform Santiment assessed Bitcoin’s (BTC) recent rise to the $77,000 level and the overall market sentiment.

Santiment, an analytics company that closely tracks Bitcoin’s price movements, examined Bitcoin’s rise to the $77,000 level in its latest market assessment. Despite the price increase, the prevailing skeptical approach among investors is noteworthy.

According to the analysis, Bitcoin’s push to new highs hasn’t generated as much enthusiasm in the market as expected. On the contrary, many traders are skeptical about the sustainability of this rise. Santiment notes that this skeptical atmosphere in the market could actually create a healthy foundation for the continuation of the rally.

The question of “Has the bottom been reached?” remains a major topic of discussion among market participants. Santiment experts state that conversations on social media platforms and on-chain data indicate that investors are still expecting a major correction. Historically, periods of skepticism often coincide with phases of sustained price increases.

It is noted that the continued low supply of Bitcoin on exchanges is reducing selling pressure. In particular, the fact that whales are not aggressively selling at current levels is interpreted as a signal that long-term confidence is being maintained.

According to Santiment, this “skepticism” that emerged during Bitcoin’s $77,000 rally indicates that the market hasn’t overheated yet. If this cautious stance continues among investors instead of FOMO (fear of missing out), Bitcoin’s potential to test higher levels could strengthen.
