What to know:

  • Anchorage Digital, the United States’ first federally chartered crypto bank, has chosen M0 as its core technology backbone.
  • Anchorage seeks to be the master engine for institutions looking to mint and govern regulated stablecoins-a solemn dance with paperwork and profit.
  • M0’s protocol for global institutions to mint fully configurable stablecoins is already trusted by Stripe, Moonpay and MetaMask.

In the ledger of modern finance, Anchorage Digital, the U.S.’s first federally chartered crypto bank, has tapped M0 as its core technology provider, a move meant to turn the custodian into a primary engine for institutions to mint and manage regulated stablecoins.

The San Francisco-based Anchorage seeks to widen its issuance platform through M0, opening doors to a broad range of firms eager to launch U.S.-regulated stablecoins, according to a press release.

M0 (pronounced “M Zero”) is a flexible protocol that allows global institutions to forge fully configurable stablecoins, and it already collaborates with Stripe, Moonpay and MetaMask.

“It might not sound like the sexiest topic, but we have been grinding modular infrastructure for stablecoins for three years now,” says M0 CEO Luca Prosperi. “This means we are backing anyone who wants to launch and manage their own stablecoin-crypto project, protocol, fintech, payment provider, exchange and many more.”

The GENIUS Act adds weight to the claim: stablecoins in the U.S. are becoming a regulated instrument. M0 has already partnered with several regulated players using the firm’s contracts, but with Anchorage the regulation-focused relationship runs a bit deeper, Prosperi notes.

“By partnering with M0, we’re extending our issuance platform to support that growth, while maintaining the regulatory, operational, and security standards our partners rely on,” said Anchorage CEO Nathan McCauley, in a statement.
