Nasdaq's Verafin unit partnered with Stablecore on 15 September to integrate traditional banking data with digital asset activity in a single financial crime detection platform. The system addresses a compliance gap as criminals move money between bank accounts and cryptocurrency to cover their tracks.

The digital asset market Stablecore serves has grown to approximately $2.4 trillion, more than double its late 2022 levels. Amarillo National Bank is testing the beta version. Broader rollout to mutual customers is planned for fourth quarter 2026 and first quarter 2027.
