Industry resource helps banks, fintechs, and payment providers evaluate key decisions

BOSTON, August 11, 2026 — Moonsong Labs, a blockchain engineering firm for regulated financial institutions, today announced the release of Payments on Solana: An Institutional Implementation Guide

Institutional activity on Solana has grown quickly, with payment volume growing 755% year over year, according to Messari (Feb 2026). As adoption accelerates, implementation has become the next challenge.

This free guide helps teams move their stablecoin payment initiative from planning into production. 

It provides a practical framework for evaluating the engineering, operational, and architectural decisions required to build payment infrastructure on Solana.

“The question is no longer whether stablecoin payments are ready for institutions. It’s how to actually move an identified use case into production,” said Olivia Smith, Co-Founder and COO of Moonsong Labs. 

“Architecture, custody, compliance, liquidity and finance integration all have to work together. We wrote this guide to make those implementation decisions more concrete.”

What’s Inside the Guide

Designed for banks, fintechs, payment providers, and infrastructure companies, the guide covers the critical implementation decisions:

  • Seven architectural decisions behind every production deployment
  • Evaluation frameworks for custody, compliance, privacy, liquidity, and finance integration
  • Deployment models, from managed APIs to customer-operated infrastructure
  • Reference architecture for institutional payment systems
  • Five common implementation pitfalls and how to avoid them
  • Production readiness assessment

The guide is available as a free download from Moonsong Labs.

From Strategy to Production

Moonsong Labs designs and engineers production blockchain infrastructure for regulated financial institutions across payments, tokenization, custody, privacy, interoperability, and AI-enabled financial systems.

On Solana, Moonsong engineers have contributed to ecosystem initiatives including Solana Developer Platform (SDP), Subscriptions & Allowances, and pay.sh. The firm applies the same production engineering expertise to help financial institutions design and implement blockchain infrastructure.

Organizations evaluating blockchain payment infrastructure can request a complimentary Payments Architecture Scoping Session.

The session helps stakeholders evaluate target payment flows, architecture, custody and compliance requirements, deployment strategy, and implementation priorities before committing engineering resources.
