Stablecoin basics

Stablecoins settle instantly, 24/7, across borders. For treasury teams, that means less trapped cash and faster access to working capital.

### [Tokenized deposits and stablecoins for corporate treasury](/learn/corporate-treasury-tokenized-deposits/)

Treasury

Stablecoins change how cross-border payments work. Instead of relying on correspondent banks, the flow is simpler.
