The growth of stablecoins is rapidly shifting the digital asset industry from speculative trading to operational use cases. In 2024, stablecoin transfers reached $27.6 trillion, surpassing Visa and Mastercard’s combined transaction volume according to a report by CEX.IO. And the payments industry is responding with strategic initiatives, such as Stripe’s recent $1.1 billion acquisition of stablecoin platform Bridge.

Stablecoins的增长正在迅速将数字资产行业从投机交易转移到运营用例。根据Cex.io的一份报告，2024年，Stablecoin转让达到27.6万亿美元，超过Visa和Mastercard的合并交易量。付款行业正在以战略计划做出响应，例如Stripe最近收购Stablecoin Platform Bridge的11亿美元。

These changes highlight the increasing adoption of blockchain-based transactions by institutions, bringing with it the demand for enterprise-grade, secure and high-speed operational platforms like Utila.

"Utila’s mission is to be the leading institutional-grade wallet for this new era, which requires an entirely new set of product capabilities such as efficient gas management, scalable APIs, deep support for smart contract interactions and connectivity to banking rails," said Bentzi Rabi, Co-founder and CEO of Utila. "Organizations don’t have many options today. They’re mostly stuck between ‘old-generation’ institutional wallets that are inflexible and lack relevant product offerings, or ‘simple’ wallets that are not institutional-grade. We provide the ultimate platform for on-chain operations with the highest security standards in the market."

Bentzi Rabi说：“ Utila的使命是成为这个新时代的领先机构钱包，它需要一套全新的产品功能，例如高效的天然气管理，可扩展的API，对智能合约互动的深厚支持以及与银行轨道的连接性，” Upitila的联合创始人和CEO Bentzi Rabi说。 “今天的组织没有太多选择。它们大多在'老一代'机构钱包之间存在，这些机构钱包不灵活且缺乏相关产品，或者不是机构级的'简单'钱包。我们为具有最高安全标准的链链运营提供了最终的平台。”
