Introduction

Stablecoins have emerged as a digital asset solution with clear product market fit, and skyrocketing adoption. Central banks, traditional financial institutions, web2 companies and more have recently been exploring opportunities in the stablecoin market for a broad set of users.

The near instant settle of payments globally, in a secure manner, against properly collateralized digital versions of local currencies offers tangible improvements over today’s traditional payment infrastructure.

Parabolic growth in stablecoin issuance and payments exacerbates the growing need for specialized stablecoin blockchain infrastructure.

The missing link in existing stablecoin infrastructure solutions today is privacy.

As the market for stablecoins continues to grow over the coming decade, a key gap that needs to be filled is scalable, secure, and fully private infrastructure to facilitate stablecoin usecases.

Enter Halo

Halo is the first fully private EVM blockchain purpose-built for stablecoin usecases and real-world payments.

As the stablecoin market growth continues its trajectory, there is a growing need for optimized infrastructure; built from the ground up with privacy as its foundational cornerstone.

Built with seamless EVM stablecoin Defi integration in mind, composability is a key feature of Halo Network.

Existing applications on Ethereum, Polygon, Base, Arbitrum etc are able to quickly deploy onto Halo Network, without any protocol updates or additional contract changes.

In short,

Halo Network provides the next generation of (private) payment rails for stablecoin usecases including neobanks, vaults, collateralized lending/borrowing, and more.

A much needed onchain analogue to existing traditional finance rails.

Built with both institutions and retail in mind, from day one.
