Stablecoin payments firm BVNK has added the Stellar network to its platform as a settlement route. Blockchain outlet The Defiant reported that the integration allows BVNK customers to use Stellar-based settlement routes in more than 130 markets. The move comes seven weeks after Mastercard completed its acquisition of BVNK. BVNK said Stellar processed $55.6 billion in payments across 3.6 billion transactions in 2025 and cited 99.99 percent uptime and an average settlement time of 5 seconds.
