: Multiple institutions including Robinhood, MetaMask, and eToro, along with Fireblocks, Checkout.com, Cross River Bank, Securitize, Wintermute, and others, jointly announced their participation in the "Open Transaction Layer (OTL)" initiative, aimed at establishing a unified transaction coordination protocol layer for on-chain finance.OTL is positioned as an open protocol stack for coordinating identity verification, compliance validation, transaction messaging, and execution processes among wallets, institutions, and AI agents, addressing the integration fragmentation problem currently plaguing cross-institutional interactions in on-chain finance, where entities operate in silos.The current coalition members include payment companies, trading platforms, wallets, market makers, and custody and stablecoin infrastructure providers, including Robinhood, MetaMask, eToro, MoonPay, SoFi, Wintermute, among others, as well as foundations from multiple public chains such as TON, Solana, Stellar, and Polygon.

SoFi Technologies has announced the expansion of its stablecoin, SoFiUSD, to the Solana network, attracted by its low costs, high throughput, and rapid settlement capabilities.Launched in 2025 as a fully reserved US dollar-pegged stablecoin, SoFiUSD was initially deployed on Ethereum, designed to provide banks, fintech companies, and enterprises with near real-time settlement infrastructure available 24/7.As the regulatory framework gradually becomes clearer, banks and financial institutions are accelerating their entry into the stablecoin赛道, competing with major issuers such as Tether and Circle.
