1Money, a company developing a layer-1 blockchain for stablecoin payments, has secured 34 U.S. money transmitter licenses and a Class F digital asset business license from the Bermuda Monetary Authority. This marks a significant step in the company’s plan to launch global stablecoin orchestration services.
According to a Thursday announcement, 1Money will leverage its newly acquired licenses to provide a comprehensive stablecoin infrastructure solution. The company’s offerings include a dedicated layer-1 protocol, orchestration services, and a full suite of compliant fiat solutions. The licenses allow 1Money to support both stablecoin issuers and real-world asset (RWA) issuers, enabling them to mint stablecoins and RWA tokens while connecting them to the traditional banking system.

1Money’s vision for stablecoin orchestration
1Money aims to become a leading player in the growing stablecoin ecosystem by providing infrastructure that bridges the gap between traditional financial systems and emerging blockchain technology. Co-founder and CEO Brian Shroder explained that the licenses enable 1Money to “orchestrate stablecoin flows across both traditional rails and emerging blockchain infrastructure.” This vision is aligned with the increasing demand for stablecoins as a reliable payment tool.
Stablecoin payments gaining momentum
Stablecoins have been gaining significant traction as a reliable payment tool in the digital space. Recent data from late May reveals that $94.2 billion worth of transactions were settled using stablecoins between January 2023 and February 2025, highlighting their growing role in the global payment ecosystem.
A mid-May survey of 295 executives from traditional banks, fintech companies, and payment gateways found that 90% of institutional players are either already using stablecoins or are actively exploring them. This reflects a broader trend where companies are increasingly integrating stablecoins into their payment systems.
Major players in stablecoin adoption
As the stablecoin market continues to expand, traditional payment processors are also jumping on board. In June, Shopify rolled out early access to stablecoin payments via Circle’s USDC, in collaboration with Coinbase. A couple of months later, Visa expanded its stablecoin offerings on its settlement platform, adding support for USDG, PayPal USD, and Euro Coin stablecoins.
Meanwhile, Mastercard partnered with Circle and Finastra, aiming to expand USDC’s reach to merchants and banks worldwide. In May, Stripe introduced stablecoin-based accounts for clients in over 100 countries, further signaling the mainstream adoption of stablecoins as a payment solution.
The future of stablecoins and 1Money’s role
The rising interest in stablecoin payments, combined with 1Money’s expanding regulatory capabilities, positions the company as a critical player in the rapidly evolving stablecoin ecosystem. With increasing support from both traditional financial institutions and blockchain innovators, the infrastructure that 1Money provides will be essential for facilitating the continued growth and adoption of stablecoins globally.
