As digital assets gradually move from cryptocurrency markets into broader financial and commercial contexts, on-chain finance is entering a phase of transitioning from conceptual exploration to real-world application. The increasing use of stablecoins in payments, settlements, and cross-border fund flows is prompting financial institutions and enterprises to confront more concrete challenges: how to integrate on-chain assets and cash flows into existing business systems, how to establish operational mechanisms suited to the on-chain environment, and how to manage new security risks within an open, continuously operating network.

Under this context, Cregis, the enterprise digital asset payments and custody infrastructure, will collaborate with global payment solutions provider FOMO Pay, stablecoin payment infrastructure specialist Stable, and all-in-one compliance and risk decision intelligence platform Width to host the Institutional Onchain Finance Summit 2026 in Singapore during TOKEN2049 Week on October 6, 2026. Sponsored by FUTURECLOUD, AWS, and Avenia, the summit will bring together industry professionals from financial services, payments, stablecoins, digital asset infrastructure, and security to discuss institutional applications of stablecoins and onchain security.

From stablecoin applications to financial infrastructure

The expanding use of stablecoins is transforming how funds flow between different financial networks. From cross-border payments to corporate treasury management, stablecoins are gradually taking on practical functions previously handled by traditional financial systems. For banks, payment institutions, and enterprises, the key question is no longer whether to adopt stablecoins, but how to integrate them effectively into existing business processes and financial infrastructure.

The first panel of the summit, "What Do Stablecoins Mean for Banks, Enterprises, and the Broader Economic System?" will explore the practical applications of stablecoins in banks, enterprises, and the broader economic system, as well as the impacts of their deeper integration into the financial system.

FOMO Pay co-founder Zack Yang, MetaComp co-president and COO Eddie Hui, Tether’s Regional Expansion Lead Andres Kim, and Avenia founder and COO Leandro Noel will participate in the discussion, sharing practical experiences on stablecoin applications from perspectives including payments, financial services, stablecoin issuance, and related infrastructure. Chiara Munaretto, co-founder of Stablecoin Insider, will moderate this panel.

The expansion of stablecoin use cases also means that the underlying infrastructure must handle more complex cash flows. Institutions are no longer just managing asset issuance and transfers, but also need to coordinate funds among different parties, manage permissions, execute transactions, and control daily operations.

As on-chain operations expand, security concerns evolve from the technical to the operational level.

As digital assets enter larger-scale institutional operations, security concerns are expanding from isolated technical risks to the entire operational system.

In the past, digital asset security focused primarily on smart contracts, wallets, and private key protection. However, as institutions increasingly rely on third-party infrastructure and integrate on-chain operations into their daily business processes, risks may now arise in areas such as signing systems, access controls, vendor management, and human operations. Meanwhile, advancements in automation tools and AI are transforming how attackers discover and exploit vulnerabilities, as well as how enterprises implement risk defenses.

In response to this shift, the summit will feature a panel discussion titled “The New Security Playbook: How Are Digital Asset Attacks and Defenses Evolving?” Michael Chen, Non-Executive Director of 1exchange, Jason Jiang, Chief Business Officer of CertiK, Dmytro Matviiv, CEO of HackenProof, and Alexandra Wang, Head of Strategic Partnerships at ZAN, will draw on their practical experience to discuss how digital asset attack methods are changing and how institutions can strengthen risk prevention, continuous monitoring, and incident response.

For institutions advancing their digital asset operations, security is no longer just an issue for the technology team to resolve—it is a long-term capability that permeates infrastructure, access controls, and daily operational processes.

From industry discussion to practical implementation

In addition to the two core roundtables, Jason Ma, COO of Cregis; Chye Kit Chionh, CEO and Co-founder of Width; Brian Mehler, CEO of Stable; and Eric Chen, CEO and Co-founder of Injective, will deliver keynote speeches sharing their practical insights on on-chain finance and digital assets.

As one of the co-organizers of the summit, Cregis has long been focused on the infrastructure and operational challenges enterprises face when entering on-chain finance. From wallet and cash flow management to asset governance and security controls, as digital assets gradually become integral to enterprise and financial institution operations, the role of infrastructure is evolving—from helping businesses connect to on-chain networks to supporting the continuous and secure operation of digital asset businesses.

The Institutional Onchain Finance Summit 2026 will facilitate discussions around these ongoing changes. Rather than merely debating the long-term potential of onchain finance, the summit focuses on the practical challenges businesses are already confronting: how stablecoins can serve real-world business operations, how institutions can manage onchain operational risks, and how financial infrastructure must evolve alongside business growth.

During TOKEN2049 Week, a pivotal moment for the global digital assets industry, practitioners from financial institutions, payment platforms, stablecoin issuers, and infrastructure and security sectors will gather in Singapore to share insights from diverse markets and business scenarios, further exploring how the financial system, corporate operations, and infrastructure are evolving as on-chain finance moves from early exploration toward real-world adoption.
