Singapore's MetaComp Raises $22M for Stablecoin Payment Network

MetaComp, a Singapore-licensed stablecoin payments provider, has raised $22 million in a pre-Series A funding round to scale its cross-border settlement infrastructure across Asia.

The round was backed by Eastern Bell Capital, Noah, Sky9 Capital, Freshwave Fund and Beingboom Capital, with 100Summit Partners serving as financial advisor.

MetaComp holds a Major Payment Institution license from the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) and processes over $1 billion in monthly payment volume across more than 30 markets, according to the announcement on Tuesday. The company launched its StableX Network in November, combining its payment engine with VisionX risk-intelligence technology.

The StableX system supports both traditional Swift rails and multiple stablecoin networks, including USDT, USDC, RLUSD, FDUSD, PYUSD and WUSD. The platform provides 24/7 foreign exchange execution, routing optimization and automated liquidity management for business-to-business flows.

Tin Pei Ling, co-president of MetaComp, said increasing regulatory clarity around stablecoins has enabled enterprises to modernize settlement processes. The company will use the funding to expand StableX across Southeast Asia, South Asia and the Middle East.

MetaComp operates alongside parent company Alpha Ladder Finance, which holds Capital Markets Services and Recognised Market Operator licenses from MAS. The combined structure provides treasury management services that bridge traditional finance with digital assets.

The post Headwind Helps Best Wallet Token appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Google has announced the launch of a new open-source protocol called Agent Payments Protocol (AP2) in partnership with Coinbase, the Ethereum Foundation, and 60 other organizations. This allows AI agents to make payments on behalf of users using various methods such as real-time bank transfers, credit and debit cards, and, most importantly, stablecoins. Let’s explore in detail what this could mean for the broader cryptocurrency markets, and also highlight a presale crypto (Best Wallet Token) that could explode as a result of this development. Google’s Push for Stablecoins Agent Payments Protocol (AP2) uses digital contracts known as ‘Intent Mandates’ and ‘Verifiable Credentials’ to ensure that AI agents undertake only those payments authorized by the user. Mandates, by the way, are cryptographically signed, tamper-proof digital contracts that act as verifiable proof of a user’s instruction. For example, let’s say you instruct an AI agent to never spend more than $200 in a single transaction. This instruction is written into an Intent Mandate, which serves as a digital contract. Now, whenever the AI agent tries to make a payment, it must present this mandate as proof of authorization, which will then be verified via the AP2 protocol. Alongside this, Google has also launched the A2A x402 extension to accelerate support for the Web3 ecosystem. This production-ready solution enables agent-based crypto payments and will help reshape the growth of cryptocurrency integration within the AP2 protocol. Google’s inclusion of stablecoins in AP2 is a massive vote of confidence in dollar-pegged cryptocurrencies and a huge step toward making them a mainstream payment option. This widens stablecoin usage beyond trading and speculation, positioning them at the center of the consumption economy. The recent enactment of the GENIUS Act in the U.S. gives stablecoins more structure and legal support. Imagine paying for things like data crawls, per-task…
