The move gives Zodia Markets an enhanced competitive edge as it advances its strategy to deliver the most comprehensive institutional stablecoin payments orchestration worldwide.
London, UK, 23rd September 2025 – Zodia Markets, the digital asset platform reengineering how institutional capital moves, has joined the newly launched Fireblocks Network for Payments. The move gives Zodia Markets an enhanced competitive edge as it advances its strategy to deliver the most comprehensive institutional stablecoin payments orchestration worldwide.
Until now, institutions seeking to adopt stablecoin payments have faced high barriers to entry including fragmented providers, lengthy and costly integrations, inconsistent compliance standards and limited liquidity. Fireblocks’ new network eliminates these frictions by providing unified access to stablecoin issuers, liquidity providers, blockchains and local payment rails across more than 100 geographies, all within a secure, standardised and compliant framework.
By joining the network, Zodia Markets combines its regulated, bank-backed infrastructure and deep liquidity with Fireblocks’ orchestration layer, offering clients unrivalled access to global corridors and currencies. This integration not only allows institutions to scale payments faster and more securely, but also ensures they can pivot quickly to new opportunities, from emerging stablecoins to shifting cross-border payment demands, without sacrificing compliance or resilience.
Nick Philpott, Co-Founder and Head of Partnerships at Zodia Markets, comments, “Institutions do not want complexity. They want trusted partners who can deliver speed, liquidity and compliance at scale. Joining the Fireblocks Network for Payments is both complementary and integral to the stablecoin payments orchestration we are building. Institutions shouldn’t be held back by slow networks in a world that rewards speed.
Capital should move with the same ease and immediacy as instant messaging. When it does, those who move it can unlock potential faster, act on opportunity the moment it arises and seize market advantage.”
With this partnership, Zodia Markets cements its role as the institutional gateway to stablecoin-based payments, giving clients a level of trust, flexibility and reach that competitors cannot match.
