Better Payment Network (BPN), a startup developing stablecoin-based payment infrastructure, has received a significant funding boost of $50 million from YZi Labs, the venture arm formerly known as Binance Labs. This investment will fuel BPN’s expansion efforts and enhance its onchain liquidity pools for faster, more efficient transactions between various stablecoins in emerging markets. The company aims to revolutionize cross-border payments by merging centralized and decentralized finance models. This hybrid approach enables real-time minting, swapping, and settlement of fiat-backed stablecoins, ultimately reducing transaction costs from 2% to a mere 0.3%, and shortening settlement times from two days to just a few hours. BPN’s platform targets regions with fragmented banking systems and limited access to dollar liquidity, aiming to make stablecoin payments more efficient for fintechs and merchants operating across multiple currencies. This move reflects renewed investor confidence in the stability of payment infrastructure, especially as regulations around stablecoins become clearer. Investors are eager to support solutions that bridge the gap between traditional digital assets and existing payment systems. This investment marks YZi Labs’ first major venture since its rebranding from Binance Labs earlier this year, highlighting their commitment to expanding infrastructure projects supporting liquidity, payments, and compliance for digital assets. While other investors in BPN’s seed round have yet to be disclosed, the size of the raise signals a resurgence of investor enthusiasm for stablecoin infrastructure. Market data shows stablecoin supply has exceeded $160 billion globally, with transaction volumes continuing to grow across various blockchains such as BNB Chain, Ethereum, and Tron. This trend signifies a growing recognition of multi-chain liquidity and regional payment networks competing to power the next generation of stablecoin transactions.
