According to Fireblocks, the institutional digital asset platform integrated Circle Gateway and Circle Payments Network (CPN) on its platform in Q2 2026, unifying USDC treasury management and cross-border payment operations under a single compliance framework.
Fireblocks reported that stablecoins accounted for 69% of all digital asset transaction volume on its platform during the period, with USDC surpassing USDT as the most-used stablecoin among customers. Gateway enables institutions to maintain a single virtual USDC balance across multiple blockchains without separately managing walances per network, while CPN facilitates near-instantaneous cross-border settlement to local fiat currencies across 50+ countries. Both integrations operate within Fireblocks' existing policy engine, enabling institutions to apply unified sanctions screening, Travel Rule compliance and approval workflows across all stablecoin transfers.
