Anyflo exits stealth, acquires Sui's Native to simplify stablecoin payments
What's the deal? Anyflo, a stablecoin payments orchestration service, emerged from stealth on October 8, 2026, at Sui Basecamp during TOKEN2049 Singapore with the acqui-hire of NativeDealroom has a profile for this one. Try Dealroom →, a Bitcoin lending platform on Sui. The deal value was undisclosed. Native raised just under $2 million before the acquisition and ranked in the top five of 630 projects at Sui Overflow 2025.
What's the endgame? Anyflo acts as an orchestration layer, giving businesses access to stablecoins across multiple chains while handling network complexity, liquidity, and routing. The pitch: let companies focus on business outcomes rather than becoming blockchain experts.
The hire: Anyflo was founded by chief executive officer Lola Oyelayo-Pearson, former general manager of product at Mysten Labs, with prior roles at Shopify Money and Capital One. Native co-founder Robert Zaremba and his team join, bringing cross-chain engineering expertise into the business.
Who's backing it? Anyflo was incubated within Mysten Labs, the original contributor to the Sui blockchain, which has also invested $1 million in the company. "Lola and the Native team are building around a real challenge: making blockchain-based payments work for businesses without requiring them to become blockchain experts," said Mysten Labs president Kevin Boon.
The product: Anyflo enters private alpha in October with a production preview and liquidity onboarding, followed by beta in the first quarter of 2027.
Why now? Embedded finance is shifting who moves money, with marketplaces, neobanks, and payroll firms building payments directly into their products. "Most businesses aren't asking for stablecoins," Oyelayo-Pearson said. "They're asking how to reduce the cost of moving money, protect margins and build better experiences for their customers."
The signal: Stablecoins are moving from crypto-native use cases toward enterprise payment rails, and the race is on to build the layer that hides their complexity. Anyflo is betting that orchestration — not the rails themselves — is where the business value sits.
