The partnership combines Episode Six’s enterprise-grade card issuing and ledger infrastructure with Fireblocks’ trusted platform for digital asset custody, settlement, and stablecoin payments. Together, they are delivering a powerful system that enables banks, fintechs, and corporations to issue, fund, and process both traditional and digital assets through one cohesive platform.
By leveraging the Fireblocks Network—trusted by over 2,400 institutional counterparties—the solution connects more than 120 blockchains, 35 digital asset exchanges, and global card networks. This interoperability allows financial institutions to scale their digital asset operations while maintaining compliance and robust security standards.

Our unified payments solution brings programmable, multi-asset transactions with the same reliability and compliance standards banks expect—whether pre-funded, credit-based, or digital asset-backed,” he said.
