Tempo is a new Layer-1 blockchain launched by Stripe (in partnership with Paradigm) that’s purpose-built for payments and stablecoin flows rather than for trading or general-purpose DeFi. Tempo offers Ethereum-compatible tooling with payments-ready infra, including support for major stablecoins, over 100K tps, sub-second finality, enterprise features like batch payments and privacy/compliance capabilities, and more.
