The Great Fintech Migration: Why Every Payment Company Will Run on Stablecoins
Stablecoin infrastructure is faster and cheaper, and companies are using it to fundamentally rebuild payment infrastructure for the next decade of financial services. The great fintech migration isn't coming. It's here.
Regulatory Radar #1
On 10 June 2025, the European Banking Authority (EBA) issued a no-action letter addressing the interaction between PSD2 and MiCA—marking the first time this tool has been used to navigate the complex overlap between legacy payments regulation and Europe’s new crypto framework. But what exactly is a no-action letter in the EU context? Who can issue one? What’s its legal weight? And why should market participants and policymakers alike pay attention? Let’s take a closer look.

Is Web3 devolving back into Web2?
85% of traded volumes happen off-chain, on CEXs. The problem is that CEXs are custodial, and not interoperable like on-chain protocol. And as these centralised solutions offer a better UX than their decentralised counterparts, it's easy to think that crypto might just become another commodity just good enough to be traded for profits, in neobanks-like structure. In short: is web3 devolving back into web2? That's what we're exploring today in this new Deep Dive rant.

Got questions?
We have answers
What is Kulipa?
We’re a one-stop-shop to help fintechs issue stablecoin-backed payment products, like cards, virtual accounts and wallets.
In which countries can I issue cards?
Through our single API, you can launch physical and virtual card programs in most countries around the world. Our cards are accepted at over 150 millions merchants globally through the Visa and Mastercard networks.
Can my users spend stablecoins directly at merchants?
Yes. Your users can spend their stablecoin balances instantly. Kulipa handles the conversion to local fiat while the user’s stablecoin balance is debited.
How secure is the Kulipa infrastructure?
We employ enterprise-grade security protocols, including real-time on-chain audit trails and 24/7/365 fraud monitoring. All stablecoin assets used for transactions are all issued by regulated providers.
How fast can we go to market?
While legacy banking integrations take months or years, you can launch a compliant stablecoin payment product with Kulipa in a few weeks.
Do I need any license to work with stablecoins?
Not for cards. Kulipa acts as your compliance layer by managing VASP licensing, KYC, KYB, and AML monitoring.
If you’re going for self-custodial wallets + virtual accounts, then you don’t need any licensing either. If you’re working on a custodial model, then regular licenses apply.
What blockchains do you support?
We can deploy on any blockchain - from EVM chains to L2 or Solana, and many more.
