Stablecoin Solutions on ETHPAR
The first Ethereum L1 fork specifically optimized for stablecoins, targeting the $10T US retail payments market with technology designed for merchant processing.
Why ETHPAR for Stablecoins?
While 80% of stablecoins currently exist on just two L1s (Ethereum 50%, TRON 30%), less than 0.1% of stablecoin flow is used for retail payments. ETHPAR provides the proper technical foundation to change this.
Technical Advantages
- Node-level isolation - Each node operates as a thread with database ACID properties, ensuring transaction integrity
- Wait-free transactions - Guaranteed transaction processing not dependent on block intervals, critical for retail point-of-sale
- Pay fees in stablecoins - No need to hold native blockchain tokens, simplifying merchant adoption
- 100% Ethereum compatibility - All existing stablecoin contracts work without modification
- Complete ecosystem - RPC, Explorer, Oracles, Stablecoins, NFT support, and Bridge functionality
Market Opportunity
The current stablecoin landscape in 2025:
- Merchant retail payments B2C = $20T (TAM)
- ATMs add $13T
- Misc card transactions $7T, for a total of $40T
- Current stablecoin retail payments ~$15B (only 0.08% of TAM)
- Stablecoin funded cards (Visa/MC, ApplePay) leading the way
- Stablecoin native B2C is a blue ocean opportunity
