Alchemy Pay and Ripple Partner for Next-Gen Stablecoin Access
Alchemy Pay has announced plans to launch a new blockchain network, Alchemy Chain, in the fourth quarter of 2025. According to a June 19 press release, the blockchain will be designed specifically to support stablecoin payments and improve cross-border transactions involving fiat-backed digital assets.
A Purpose-Built Network for Stablecoin Transfers
Alchemy Chain aims to act as a global liquidity hub for stablecoins, enabling permissionless exchanges between regional tokens—such as EURC in Europe or MBRL in Brazil—and widely used stablecoins like USDT (Tether) and USDC. The network will offer API integrations for developers, payment providers, and companies, with transaction fees payable in the platform’s native ACH token.
Regulatory Momentum Shapes Stablecoin Adoption
This move comes as governments worldwide begin shaping clear regulations for stablecoins. On June 18, the U.S. passed the GENIUS Act, marking the first federal regulatory framework for fiat-backed stablecoins. Similar legal initiatives are underway in Japan, Hong Kong, and the European Union, focusing on licensing requirements, reserve standards, and compliance.
As Alchemy Pay states, “Stablecoins are no longer viewed as experimental tools but as regulated financial infrastructure.”
Expanding Ecosystem and Strategic Partnerships
Soon after the mainnet launch, Alchemy Pay also plans to introduce its own stablecoin, further positioning itself in the evolving digital finance ecosystem. The company already operates in 173 countries, supporting over 300 local payment methods.
Recent partnerships reinforce this strategy. On June 18, Alchemy Pay teamed up with Ripple to provide fiat on-ramps for Ripple’s upcoming stablecoin, RLUSD. The firm also integrated the BitGo-backed USD1 stablecoin and joined the xStocks Alliance to help users access tokenized stocks and ETFs via fiat.
Alchemy Pay continues to strengthen its U.S. presence, recently securing its ninth Money Transmitter License in Arizona.
