Stablecoin infrastructure software enables organizations to create, manage, distribute, and integrate stablecoins, a type of cryptocurrency, into financial and blockchain ecosystems. While stablecoin infrastructure software shares features of other cryptocurrency software, including cryptocurrency mining software and cryptocurrency payment gateways, it significantly differs. Stablecoins are created as a form of digital currency with the purpose of maintaining a stable value, rather than being valued on speculation. To achieve this, stablecoins are tied to real-world fiat currencies and assets, such as the US dollar (USD) or gold.
Products in this category support core functions such as stablecoin issuance, smart contract deployment, reserve and collateral management, fiat on/off-ramps, wallet and payment integrations, cross-border remittances, and compliance with KYC/AML and audit requirements. Stablecoin infrastructure software is used by financial institutions, fintech institutions, blockchain developers, and enterprises seeking to offer programmable money, streamline digital payments, or build stable, interoperable assets on distributed ledgers.
These tools are critical in bridging traditional finance and decentralized systems, ensuring the scalability, trust, and utility of stablecoins in both centralized and decentralized environments.
To qualify for inclusion in the Stablecoin Infrastructure category, a product must:
Create, distribute, remit, tokenize, and otherwise facilitate the full lifecycle and usage of stablecoins across supported systems
Maintain the stablecoin’s target value using tools such as mint or burn logic, collateral management, and real-time price oracles
Enforce robust security, KYC/AML checks, auditability, and access controls to ensure safe and compliant stablecoin operations
Support seamless minting, redemption, settlement, and reserve management through integrated banking and treasury workflows
