Water brings life. Every great economy starts with water: crossing it, harnessing it, distributing it.
The Stablecoin Economy will be no different.
For this economy to thrive, money must flow like water. And for money to flow, it needs liquidity—deep, shared, always finding its level. Liquidity in motion, liquidity at rest.
Eco ensures market liquidity is available when and where it’s most needed, to keep money flowing and productive. To turn this promising new economy into a thriving one.
The Stablecoin Economy Grows with Eco.
Superhighways connect everyone, everywhere. First mile to last mile.
Stablecoins need more than speed. They need to bend, merge, and route. To move, however, wherever, whenever, without friction.
Global balances, programmable addresses, seamless network navigation, without stopping for gas. The freedom to move your way.
Eco’s infrastructure gives you the freedom to move your way—flexible, customizable flows for developers and autonomy for end users.
The Stablecoin Economy Grows with Eco.
Infrastructure powers economies.
The world’s financial systems were built for a different era. Today, the economy needs more than just a digital upgrade—it needs a new foundation.
Stablecoins will move the money faster and smarter than ever before. But, smarter money calls for smarter infrastructure as well.
This series will highlight how the Stablecoin Economy grows with Eco.
Stay tuned for more soon…
Eco is now live on @BNBChain. @LIFIprotocol and @jumperapp are the first to integrate, enabling developers to execute real-time, cross-chain stablecoin transactions across crypto's largest stablecoin ecosystem.

At @eco we build stablecoin infra now, but only after the early consumer journey. iykyk
For the consumer stablecoin app builders out there, this post is filled with relevant insight. We lived much of it.
In particular: build a product and gtm funnel that learns your users' goals, habits, room for improvement. Especially if you're building for a user base that already has ready access to dollars and other fintech products. Stablecoins are really only 10x better when you can use them to automate more of your users' financial lives, so their money is always working for them. @tankots says they talked to 500 people live, to learn about their goals and frustrations. We did the same with the Eco App. I cannot overstate how impactful that is for getting your onboarding journey and feature set right.
And on the psychology point: Obsess over it. Another reason to talk to 500 people. We were trying to get people to hold USDC by default, in 2020. We were pretty successful in doing so. But only after we deferred some other things on our roadmap, for example: We built the App custodial to start. Of course we wanted to lead people to hold their money onchain by default, but we quickly learned that was a leap too far in the beginning. People just needed to get comfortable with a stablecoin as a digital dollar first. Make that a useful and viable bank replacement in a custodial environment first. Then later, with trust earned and habits built, offer people an embedded wallet and give them noncustodial options for their money as well. We never got to that last part as we became a serially #debanked poster child (no love lost for that era). But it was always the endgame.
A highly recommended read, that all my own experience agrees with.
User experience is still one of the biggest challenges in crypto.
@jayks, CMO at @eco, sat down with @DavidThaDegen to talk about what Eco is building and how they’re thinking about better UX.

Today, @Get_Para is rolling out Transaction Permissions powered by @Eco's Permit3. Your onchain product's users set approvals once and the rest just works.
3/ The result is onchain actions that feel like modern fintech
✦ 1-click @aave deposits into compliant stablecoins
✦ Cross-chain approvals in a single transaction with @eco
✦ Fewer prompts and clearer scope for the end user
Cross-chain actions used to require countless wallet approvals for a single transaction.
With Permit3 now live on @Get_Para, any onchain product with Para can authorize a full cross-chain workflow once. Para's transaction permissions UI shows exactly what's being signed, from which wallet, on which chain. Permit3 executes it.
No extra signatures. No chain-switching. No guesswork.
Permit3 is open source. If you're building cross-chain flows, learn more about how Permit3 can upgrade your cross-chain approvals:
Banks figured out digital money in the 1970s. Every dollar in your checking account has been digital for decades. That's not the breakthrough. The breakthrough is money that exists natively on open networks instead of institutional databases.
Here's why networked money unlocks so many new capabilities:

🎙️ Ep. 680 Eco | Unifying Stablecoin Liquidity (feat. Jay Kurahashi-Sofue)
— — —
For episode 680 of the BlockHash Podcast, host Brandon Zemp is joined by Jay Kurahashi-Sofue, CMO of @eco at ETHDenver.
Eco is a blockchain-based, full-stack infrastructure protocol designed to unify stablecoin liquidity across different blockchains and make onchain payments, transfers, and app interactions as fast, cheap, and simple as possible. It is not a new stablecoin itself, but rather a "Stablecoin Economy" layer—often referred to as a "stablelayer"—that helps developers and users move, manage, and spend stablecoins (like USDC or USDT) across various chains without dealing with fragmented networks, manual bridging, or gas fees in native tokens.

Eco is also proud to join @Global_Dollar Network to deepen this partnership and help grow $USDG adoption.
USDG—issued by @Paxos and live across @Solana, @Ethereum, @XLayerOfficial, and @Inkonchain—has seen its market cap, transfer volume, and active usage 4x over the past 9 months. And now fast, programmable USDG transfers and swaps are available through Eco.
If you’re building a stablecoin product, Eco Routes gives you instant USDG swaps across major blockchains and DeFi markets. One integration, access to billions in stablecoin liquidity. No fragmented bridging. No stacking infrastructure together.
The Stablecoin Economy keeps growing. And, Eco is at the center of it.

What if faster and cheaper are just the starting point for stablecoin rails, not the destination?
Everyone's been playing that game for years. It's hyper-competitive. Margins are razor thin. And it still doesn't give you smart money.
@rynesaxe breaks down the third dimension of moving money, and why Eco is building there, on the @stabledash podcast with @dr3wrogers and @zdubs33.
Eco’s order size limits are increasing by 10x through the Routes API — moving millions, in seconds, for some of the market’s most demanding capital allocators. Serving larger orders with tighter pricing and greater reliability is an infinite game of finding greater capital efficiency. One way Eco does this is with @Circle Gateway.
Gateway unifies @USDC liquidity across chains, eliminating the need to manage fragmented USDC balances across the networks we serve. With Gateway, Eco can instantly mint stablecoin liquidity where needed.
After a successful pilot, Eco is rolling out Gateway for any product using Eco, enabling faster fulfillment and rebalancing than ever with USDC. For partners handling larger transaction sizes that require best-in-class stablecoin routing and execution, this upgrade delivers dramatically better performance.
If you’re a solver or high-volume money mover, Eco gives you faster, smarter stablecoin routing and liquidity management across the Stablecoin Economy.
Higher limits. Lower latency. Greater reliability. With market-leading automation. Hit our docs or reach out if you want to learn more.
