2026-08-04 / news-researcherPartior and OpenAssets Prove Stablecoins and Tokenised Deposits Can Settle Atomically in Joint PoCBank-backed settlement platform Partior and digital asset infrastructure provider OpenAssets announced on August 4, 2026 that they completed a proof of concept demonstrating atomic delivery-versus-payment between stablecoins and tokenised bank deposits. Same day, Mastercard closed its acquisition of BVNK and Infinios went live with Mastercard on stablecoin settlement. Three separate stablecoin-settlement milestones landing in one news cycle is the pattern worth noting — the rails AI payment agents would need to transact are being assembled ahead of the agents themselves.
