Most of the digital asset industry measures itself in market cycles. Shawn Yan built @0xCregis around what survives them.
In 2017, while many of today’s major exchanges were being founded, he chose not to build another trading platform. His bet: whatever prices did, businesses would still need to hold, manage, and move digital assets.
Nine years later, Cregis reports 4,000+ business customers across 50+ countries and over $300B in transactions secured. Around half of those customers are no longer crypto-native.
Stablecoin Insider sat down with Yan, and what stood out was how often he declined the easy claim:
→ MPC isn’t complete security. It reduces single points of failure, but enterprises still need to control who approves transactions, how permissions are set, and whether activity can be audited.
→ An in-principle approval isn’t a license. Cregis Custody FZE has IPA from Dubai’s VARA, but it can’t offer the relevant regulated services until it receives full authorization.
→ A license doesn’t create trust. It’s an entry requirement. Technology, governance, operating capability, and local expertise still have to back it up.
→ Cregis isn’t right for everyone. If you want fully outsourced custody today, he says it may not be the right fit.
His advice for CFOs was just as measured: skip the company-wide digital asset strategy. Pick one real payment or settlement flow and run a small pilot. Compare costs, settlement time, workload, liquidity needs, and controls.
“Start with a business problem you already have, and see whether the technology can solve it.”

Fintechs, PSPs, and payroll platforms are no longer asking whether to offer stablecoins, but how to put them next to fiat in one branded account without holding licenses in every market.
We compared 10 embedded stablecoin account providers on currencies, custody, licensing, and what comes through the same API.
Full-stack platforms like @BVNKFinance supply the account, licenses, and rails, while wallet-infrastructure providers like @FireblocksHQ and @dfnsHQ supply the custody and key layer only.
The most expensive mistake is choosing the wrong layer for your product, so read the full comparison here: stablecoininsider.org/10-embedded-st…

Important Update about Stablecoin Insider:
Chiara Munaretto (@chrmrto) , Co-Founder of Stablecoin Insider, is leaving the publication, effective 15 November 2026.
Munaretto co-founded Stablecoin Insider and built it from the ground up into an established journal on how the world discusses stablecoins. Her role was fundamental to its growth, from its first edition to its position today. She now leaves to pursue new challenges and opportunities in the industry.
Readers, contributors, speakers, sponsors, partners and clients shaped this work alongside her, and Munaretto thanks all of them. It was never the work of one person.
In conversations with corporates, regional banks and private funds, tokenized money remains an unclear topic. Demand continues for education, use case scoping, vendor assessment and accurate data.
This work is long and hands-on, and Munaretto will give it her full focus under a new brand. She remains committed to the stablecoin industry and is expanding her work within it.

Liquidity management, not lower fees, is the number one reason Asian institutions adopt stablecoins, with 41% citing it as the leading benefit against 25% pointing to cost, because the business case lives in the days a payment spends in transit, not the basis points it costs.
Our fourth and final pillar piece from Money Moves East: The Stablecoin Corridors in Asia in 2026 is the CFO and treasurer primer: what changes versus correspondent banking, why the gain is pre-funded capital coming off the balance sheet, what does not change, and where to start in Singapore, Hong Kong, Japan, and Taiwan today.
Operator research from @_CapitalLayer, @movantis_global, @reapglobal, @Stabo2025, and @TripleAHQ converges on one model: a second rail, routed per transaction, governed inside the systems the business already runs.
