According to official statements, Stables and eStable announced a strategic partnership on 29 April 2026 to integrate institutional banking infrastructure and local stablecoin issuing capabilities across Asia, with all issued stablecoins backed by USDT and Tether’s Hadron tokenisation platform. The integration extends Stables’ developer platform from USDT corridors into direct minting of local-currency stablecoins across more than 150 Asian currencies.
According to both companies, only around 1% of local banks in Asia currently work closely with stablecoins, despite the region accounting for roughly 60% of global stablecoin flows. Stables reported more than US$1.5 billion in annualised payment volume and is moving toward a US$20 million Series A round to fund further regional expansion.
