Over 1 million Velo’s Orbit payment app users and vendors across Southeast Asia<\/span> leverage USDV for seamless transactions, value storage without a bank account, cross-border money transfers, and off-ramping to local currencies at local banks 24\/7 – all while earning yield on-chain.

Today’s announcement follows Velo’s recent partnership with the Laos<\/span> government to tokenize its physical gold reserves. Velo is rapidly establishing itself as a leading provider of blockchain-powered payments, trading, and RWA asset offerings across Asia<\/span>.<\/p>\n

Velo Labs<\/span> co-chairman Chatchaval Jiaravanon commented: “Velo Labs<\/span> is very pleased to bring BlackRock’s high-quality institutional yield product to Southeast Asia<\/span>. At Velo, we are building the bridges and rails that will ensure frictionless, borderless, and formless payment and trading experiences for both institutional and retail users across Asia<\/span>. Today’s announcement demonstrates our commitment to bringing Velo users access to the highest-quality institutional assets in the world.”<\/p>\n
