\n

Stripe has appointed Matt Huang, co-founder and managing partner of crypto venture firm Paradigm, as the chief executive officer of its upcoming blockchain Tempo<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Huang, who already sits on Stripe\u2019s board, will retain his position at Paradigm. That\u2019s according to Fortune<\/a>, citing sources familiar with the project.<\/p>\n

The move aligns with a growing trend of developing stablecoin-focused blockchains. These include Plasma<\/a>, which recently attracted over $373 million in an oversubscribed token sale, and Tether-focused blockchain Stable.<\/a><\/p>\n

The stablecoin sector, with a $270 billion market capitalization<\/a>, has been growing exponentially and was further propelled by Trump\u2019s recent signing of the GENIUS Act into law.<\/a> The act established a regulatory framework for the sector in the U.S.<\/p>\n

Tempo is described as a \u201chigh-performance, payments-focused\u201d layer 1 that will run code compatible with Ethereum. It\u2019s unclear when the blockchain will be launched, or whether it\u2019ll have its own token.<\/p>\n

Huang, a former Sequoia partner, has helped Paradigm manage $12.7 billion in assets and back projects including decentralized exchange Uniswap and crypto infrastructure provider Fireblocks.<\/p>\n
