The newly introduced virtual accounts enable real-time conversions between stablecoins and fiat currencies, alongside free on- and off-ramps. They support cross-border payments in more than 70 countries. This integration targets practical financial uses such as payroll, remittances, and business-to-business transactions, making these functions accessible via decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms.
For existing Gnosis users in Europe, the partnership allows transactions in both stablecoins and U.S. dollars while maintaining regulatory compliance. Additionally, users in emerging markets stand to benefit by gaining alternative means to earn, save, and transact globally without the limitations of traditional banking systems.
Noah’s infrastructure will initially be integrated by prominent Gnosis ecosystem applications and partners, including Picnic, Zeal, Safe, and Gnosis HQ. Noah CEO Shah Ramezani highlighted the goal to simplify and secure stablecoin transactions, bridging the traditional financial system with open, programmable payment solutions. Gnosis Co-founder Stefan George emphasised that this partnership helps make DeFi viable for mainstream everyday use, preserving the core Web3 values of ownership and transparency.
Noah’s technology features a programmable API that facilitates instant settlement across over 50 currencies, enabling applications to embed global payment capabilities without reliance on conventional financial systems. The startup recently closed a $22 million seed funding round to accelerate its mission of building a stablecoin-powered economy.
This partnership represents a crucial step in bringing flexible, compliant, and efficient stablecoin payment options to wider audiences, reinforcing the growing role of DeFi in global financial services.
Above all, Chinese authorities have directed state-owned digital service providers and financial institutions to explore launching stablecoins backed by the yuan, signalling a potential recalibration of the country’s longstanding hardline approach to cryptocurrencies.
