The future of payments is evolving rapidly, and stablecoins are becoming a foundational component of how money will move in the years ahead. As businesses seek faster settlement, greater efficiency, and enhanced security, the infrastructure powering payments must evolve alongside them.
That’s why we’re excited to welcome Eleni Steinman, Shane van Coller, and the entire Loop team to Lead.
They built a payment processor that enables businesses and e-commerce platforms to use stablecoin rails to unlock faster, more efficient, and secure payments. Their experience operating at the intersection of payments, blockchain infrastructure, and compliance strengthens our ability to support clients navigating the next generation of financial technology.
As banks, fintechs, and financial institutions begin testing and adopting stablecoin infrastructure at scale, thoughtful guidance and rigorous oversight will be essential. The Loop team joins Lead at a pivotal moment—one where innovation and regulation must advance together to build a safer, more resilient financial ecosystem.
With their expertise, we are even better positioned to build the regulated, programmable banking foundation that the next phase of payments will require, delivered with the precision and reliability that category-leading companies expect.
We’re thrilled to welcome the Loop team and look forward to what we’ll build together.
