Tempo hit mainnet last week, cementing a reality that would've been absurd two years ago – Stripe just launched a blockchain.
Alongside mainnet, Tempo shipped Machine Payments Protocol (MPP), and Stripe hosted Commons, their first explicitly crypto event. With Tempo, Stripe now controls a full crypto stack: Bridge for cross-border settlement and stablecoin issuance (SpaceX and Meta are already using it for cost and speed), Privy for wallet infrastructure (now powering stablecoin cards in 100+ countries), and Tempo as the chain itself.
Tempo is a payment-optimized, Stripe-developed L1 EVM built on Reth – Paradigm's high-performance Ethereum client. The chain launches with a permissioned validator set, but supports roughly 10,000 TPS (with 100K ambitions), comes with 400-600ms block times, and offers support for parallel transactions to increase throughput.
