Nuvion has announced a partnership with Turnkey to make it easier for businesses and fintechs to deploy stablecoin-powered financial products without managing wallet architecture or private-key security in-house.

The combined capability is designed to support embedded wallet creation, stablecoin on- and off-ramps, programmatic treasury workflows, and global payout routing over digital-asset rails.

Keisha Clark, managing director of Nuvion, said the goal is to abstract infrastructure complexity for enterprise customers. Bryce Ferguson, CEO and co-founder of Turnkey, said the fit supports wallet infrastructure without security trade-offs.

The Crypto and Digital Assets All-Party Parliamentary Group has launched a formal Parliamentary Inquiry into banking access for UK-based crypto and digital asset businesses.

The six-week call for written evidence runs until 31 August 2026, with findings and recommendations to Government to follow.

The inquiry is examining two key issues:

Account access, as firms report difficulty opening or keeping business bank accounts and accessing payment and merchant services.
Transaction restrictions, including payment blocks and transfer limits tied to crypto activity.

The timing follows the UKs new crypto regulatory framework and raises a central question, can banking frictions slow the Governments goal of making the UK a global digital-asset hub?

The inquiry will also review approaches in the United States, Hong Kong, Australia and the European Union.

How should banking access for crypto and digital asset businesses be addressed in the UK?

MoneyGram, Figure Markets, and Range have been announced as new Tier 1 validators on the Stellar blockchain network, expanding the network’s decentralization and fault tolerance for regulated finance use cases.

Tier 1 status on Stellar comes with specific responsibilities. Each validator must operate three geographically dispersed full validators, maintain 99.9% uptime or above, publish complete history archives, and complete SEP-1 and SEP-20 self-verification standards.

The three organizations bring different strengths. MoneyGram has operated on Stellar since 2021. Figure Markets already issues $YLDS, an SEC-registered yield-bearing stablecoin on Stellar. Range provides real-time monitoring and pre-execution compliance controls across more than 200 blockchain networks.

The Stellar Development Foundation said the new validators are expected to be fully integrated into the quorum configuration by mid-August 2026.

Nasdaq has partnered with the National Bank of Georgia to deploy its Calypso treasury and capital markets platform across five of the country’s largest commercial banks: Bank of Georgia, TBC Bank, Liberty Bank, Terabank, and Basisbank.

The shared deployment will use a single Calypso instance hosted at a centralized location, with each bank kept as a separate entity and its data fully segregated. The platform will cover the full front-to-back trade lifecycle, including trade capture, risk management, compliance, settlement, accounting, and financial reporting.

The National Bank of Georgia says the standardized reporting layer will improve visibility into treasury exposures, liquidity positions, and systemic risk across the sector. The program is coordinated through the Georgian Market Advancement Program and the Georgian Financial Markets Treasuries' Association, with project management funding provided by Japan through the Japan-EBRD Cooperation Fund.
