M0 and Anchorage Digital Team to Support Stablecoin Builders

Cryptocurrency firm Anchorage Digital has launched a partnership with stablecoin infrastructure company M0.

The collaboration is designed to merge M0’s infrastructure capabilities with Anchorage’s regulated issuance experience to serve a “growing universe of stablecoin builders,” the companies said in a news release Thursday (April 30).

“Stablecoin adoption is expanding across a wider range of use cases and platforms,” said Nathan McCauley, Anchorage co-founder and CEO. “By partnering with M0, we’re extending our issuance platform to support that growth, while maintaining the regulatory, operational, and security standards our partners rely on.”

The release noted that in the last several years, institutions have embraced stablecoin adoption with use cases across trading, treasury and payments, backed by regulated infrastructure for custody, issuance and redemption.

“At the same time, fintechs, payment platforms, and application developers are increasingly embedding digital dollars directly into their product, bringing new demand for regulated issuance infrastructure that is built for how they operate,” the companies said.

With this partnership, M0 will offer a “modular infrastructure layer” that lets businesses create and deploy stablecoins, while Anchorage Digital provides the issuance and compliance required to scale these assets in a regulated environment.

This model lets companies move faster, from concept to issuance, while upholding the operational and regulatory requirements needed to scale.

“M0 was designed to give stablecoin builders and financial institutions a modular infrastructure to launch and scale digital money more efficiently,” said Luca Prosperi, M0 co-founder and CEO. “By partnering with Anchorage Digital, we’re combining that flexibility with a regulated issuance layer, making it easier for a broader range of companies to bring stablecoins to market.”

In other stablecoin news, PYMNTS wrote last week about the limitations these tokens face in areas like treasury operations, supply chain finance and cross-border corporate payments, even as they enjoy growth in trading, remittances and decentralized finance.

The reasons can tie back to the crypto sector’s volatility, regulation or even infrastructure, but it is privacy above all that deters greater adoption in a corporate world that operates on controlled disclosure and layers of confidentiality.

“Stablecoins invert that model,” PYMNTS wrote. “They offer settlement speed and global reach, but at the cost of exposing transactional data to a public audience. On public blockchain rails, large stablecoin movements are immediately visible. Market participants monitor flows in real time, using them as signals to anticipate trades, front-run positions or adjust pricing. This creates a feedback loop where visibility increases slippage, which in turn discourages large transactions.”
