Loop Crypto, a pioneering stablecoin and blockchain payments company, is joining Lead Bank, the companies announced today.

The entire Loop Crypto team will integrate with Lead Bank as the combined organization doubles down on building next-generation financial infrastructure powered by stablecoins and digital assets.

“Four years ago, my co-founder Shane van Coller and I started Loop Crypto to build new financial infrastructure powered by blockchains,” said Loop Crypto founder Eleni.

Stablecoins have rapidly moved from niche to mainstream, with more than $300 billion now in circulation across over 40 million active wallets worldwide. The acquisition positions Lead Bank, already known for its first-principles approach to modernizing banking, at the forefront of this transformation.

Lead Bank, led by Executive Chair Jacqueline Reses, has emerged as one of the most crypto-forward traditional financial institutions in the United States, offering banking services to fintech and digital-asset companies while maintaining a full commercial banking charter.

The deal marks the latest example of traditional banks strategically acquiring crypto-native talent and technology amid surging institutional and retail adoption of stablecoins for payments, remittances, and treasury management.
