Wirex to Host New Stablecoin Infrastructure Conference, Full Stack London

Wirex, the global stablecoin infrastructure provider, will host Full Stack London, a new stablecoin infrastructure conference, on Thursday, Nov. 12 at Ham Yard Hotel, London. The closed-door event will bring together founders, CEOs and technical builders from payments, fintech and digital assets.

Taking place the day after Digital Asset Summit, Full Stack London covers the business models and infrastructure behind stablecoins: how they fit into an existing payments stack, how they become spendable in everyday life, and what stops more businesses from using them.

Speakers include Lord Kulveer Ranger, a member of the UK House of Lords and Wirex Labs board member; Kamran Shahin, vice president of product management for digital assets and payment systems at Mastercard; Julian Sawyer, former COO of Starling Bank and former CEO of Bitstamp; Nika Naghavi, Senior Director of Product Partnerships at Circle; and Alexandra Kugusheva, GTM Lead at Morpho. Sessions and roundtables include banking-as-a-service provider failures, accountability for AI agent actions, a fireside chat on “The AML Model Was Built for Humans”, and a comparison of how the UK, EU and US regulate stablecoin businesses.

The event comes as competition grows across the stablecoin stack, with Mastercard recently acquiring London-based BVNK for $1.8 billion and Circle’s payments-focused blockchain, Arc, going live in September with BlackRock as a validator.

“Card spending on stablecoins has roughly tripled in a year, and almost every major payments company is now taking a position somewhere in the stack,” said Pavel Matveev, CEO and co-founder of Wirex. “Most businesses have accepted that stablecoins matter. The harder part is making them work across cards, compliance and customer experience, and Full Stack London is for the teams doing that work.

He continued: “London is the right place to have that conversation. The FCA has finalized its crypto rules and opened its authorization regime, and the Bank of England dropped its proposed limits on stablecoins that people and businesses can hold.”
