Radius has launched a new stablecoin network.
Radius is building a new infrastructure network that aims to increase the speed and settlement of modern day stablecoins. It is EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine) compatible and uses independent sharding with up to 2.5M TPS (Transactions Per Second) already tested.
The company is seeing a future where the amount of stablecoin transactions across blockchains substantially increase, as well as the presence of AI Agent payments (which are leaning towards) using onchain payments, such as Circle’s USDC stablecoin.
The team has a wide TradFi and DeFi background, with founding members having worked previously at institutions such as MIT, the Federal Reserve, Circle, and others. Radius has also selected SBC stablecoin (issued by Brale issuance platform) to run in the background, especially when it comes to gas fees.
According to the docs provided by Radius, there are core use-cases for their new infrastructure and settlement network. Things like API calls and paying for those calls over the network with no minimum transaction cost, settlement in milliseconds, and very low transfer cost 0.00010 vs. the compared 2.9% credit card fees incurred by companies.
In a world where creators are resorting to a pay-to-view-content and donate tips as primary monetisation strategies, as well as evolving enterprise requirements for flexibly billable and payroll transfers, Radius allows for a “pay-as-you-go” approach for both micropayments and stablecoin streaming regardless of recipient and subject, 24/7.
