Its continued expansion and its growing engagement with stablecoin settlement reflect a platform that is as focused on the future of payments as it is on serving the needs of today's market. Thunes' inclusion in FXC Intelligence's 2026 Cross-Border Payments 100 reflects the scale and strategic value of the network it has built."
