In addition to market making, XBTO will leverage Algorand’s high-speed, low-cost blockchain to facilitate USDC transfers between custody wallets and exchanges as part of treasury and rebalancing operations.

“We’re proud to help facilitate seamless USDC transfers between custody wallets and exchanges, improving interoperability of DeFi assets,” said Harpal Singh, Chief Financial Officer at Algorand Foundation.

The collaboration comes amid growing institutional adoption of digital assets, with 83% of surveyed investors planning to increase their allocations in 2025, according to EY-Parthenon and Coinbase survey. As tokenized markets are projected to surpass $600 billion by 2030, robust liquidity provision and seamless stablecoin infrastructure are becoming increasingly critical for a mature digital asset ecosystem.
