Newsflash Asia

- November 26, 2025

StraitsX, a Singapore-based stablecoin infrastructure provider, has announced a year of strategic expansion in 2025, marking a pivotal moment for digital finance in Asia. As stablecoins gain traction in cross-border payments, StraitsX has strengthened its role by forming key partnerships with companies like OKX SG and Grab, and expanding collaborations with banks and institutional networks across the region.

In 2025, StraitsX unveiled a refreshed brand identity to reflect its ambition to scale its infrastructure across borders. This new identity aligns with its mission to provide compliant and seamless digital currency infrastructure. The company has also deepened its partnerships, such as with Thailand’s KASIKORNBANK, to integrate stablecoin-based settlement into existing payment channels, enhancing efficiency and transparency.

StraitsX’s collaboration with OKX SG and Grab has extended stablecoin utility into everyday payment environments, allowing users to leverage stablecoins like USDT and USDC for daily transactions. Additionally, a strategic memorandum of understanding with Grab aims to integrate stablecoin-compatible wallets into the Grab platform, enabling merchants to accept fiat-backed stablecoins such as XSGD and XUSD.

The company has also expanded its multichain strategy, with XSGD now listed on Ripple’s XRP Ledger and Coinbase, enhancing liquidity and usability. StraitsX’s participation in global forums has further solidified its position as a leader in digital money innovation, advocating for regulatory-compliant stablecoins to bridge traditional and modern financial systems.

Looking ahead to 2026, StraitsX aims to deliver programmable and interoperable infrastructure to meet the growing demand from payment service providers and institutions, positioning stablecoins as essential rails of global payments.
