According to a recent LinkedIn post from Grifin, a new episode of its Griffin Uncut series focuses on MANSA, a stablecoin-based cross-border payments provider that has reportedly processed over $400 million in transactions. The post indicates that MANSA’s model targets Africa, Latin America, and Southeast Asia by shortening settlement times from several days to near-instant transfers.

The company’s LinkedIn post highlights three elements it suggests are critical beyond stablecoins themselves: pre-funded liquidity, infrastructure for fiat–stablecoin conversion, and strong compliance to avoid exposure to “tainted” assets. The featured discussion also characterizes cross-border payments as fundamentally a capital allocation problem and explores how MANSA aims to keep liquidity “always-on,” which could be relevant to scalability and risk management.
The post further notes that MANSA’s founder, Mouloukou S., recounts receiving more than 100 venture capital rejections before securing backing from Tether, and advocates for framing stablecoins as “digital dollars.” For investors, this content may signal ongoing interest from Grifin in stablecoin-enabled payments and treasury infrastructure themes, areas that could benefit from growing demand for faster, compliant cross-border settlement in emerging markets.
While the LinkedIn post is primarily promotional for a podcast episode, it underscores perceived opportunities and constraints in the stablecoin payments stack, including liquidity provisioning, compliance, and FX conversion. If Grifin maintains active engagement with such topics and counterparties, it may be positioning itself within a broader ecosystem focused on digital-asset rails for international payments, a segment that could see structural growth as regulations and institutional adoption evolve.
