A stablecoin settlement layer is a blockchain or protocol designed for efficient stablecoin transfers. This layer provides the underlying infrastructure for issuing, transferring, and redeeming stablecoins, ensuring fast, low-cost, and reliable value movement. It often prioritizes high transaction throughput and strong finality to support large-scale financial operations. The integrity and performance of this layer are crucial for the stability and utility of stablecoins within the broader digital asset ecosystem.
