Circle co-founder and CEO Jeremy Allaire said on Aug. 27 that StableFX is set to go live on mainnet soon. The announcement was made in a post on X. Before this, StableFX had already been launched on the Arc public testnet. StableFX is described as an institutional-grade foreign exchange engine built for stablecoins. It covers local currency stablecoins tied to both major and emerging markets. According to the information shared, the system supports near-instant, 24/7 on-demand settlement. The product also uses a PvP, or payment-versus-payment, model. In practice, that means both sides settle at the same time or neither side settles, a structure aimed at reducing capital lock-up. Circle said the setup also allows access to multiple vetted counterparties through a single onboarding process. The update focuses on the upcoming mainnet rollout and follows the earlier testnet deployment on Arc.

StableFX had previously gone live on the Arc public testnet. It is described as an institutional-grade stablecoin foreign exchange engine covering local currency stablecoins across major and emerging markets.

The product supports near-instant, 24/7 on-demand settlement. It also uses a PvP, or payment-versus-payment, mechanism, meaning both sides settle simultaneously or neither settles, which is designed to reduce capital usage. Through a single onboarding process, users can also connect to multiple vetted counterparties.
