Paystand has launched USDb, a stablecoin targeting commercial-scale enterprise finance. It is designed to work inside the accounts receivable, accounts payable, payroll, and treasury workflows that run the global economy. Partners include Rootstock, a decentralized infrastructure layer built on top of the Bitcoin network, Blockstream, and Ibex, USDb’s first minting partner and liquidity provider.
USDb is a Bitcoin-aligned stablecoin backed 1:1 by USD reserves, designed to deliver price stability while unlocking the efficiency of blockchain-based payments. Paystand’s network has already processed more than $20 billion in payment volume for over one million businesses across North America and Latin America.
In 2025, stablecoin transaction volumes soared to $33 trillion, up 72% year-over-year, according to Artemis Analytics, equivalent to more than half of Visa’s global throughput. Although the market today exceeds $300 billion in circulation, enterprise adoption is just beginning. USDb changes that.
USDb is built around the three B’s: the converging forces of enterprise-grade financial operations (business), AI-driven agentic transaction environments (bots), and Bitcoin’s global infrastructure.
This multi-network architecture allows USDb to move across Bitcoin-based infrastructure, combining smart contract programmability with the security of Bitcoin’s base layer, all in a single stablecoin built for business.
USDb’s first commercial application is cross-border payments through Bitwage, the blockchain-powered payroll and workforce payments platform Paystand acquired in November 2025. Bitwage reaches more than 90,000 workers and 4,500 businesses in nearly 200 countries.
