From Stablecoins to Real Financial Infrastructure

​We’re excited to welcome Stephanie Vaughan, Co-Founder and COO of Ground, to the NYU Blockchain Lab on October 5.

​Stephanie will join us for a conversation on building infrastructure for stablecoins, tokenized yield, and the next generation of fintech products. At Ground, she leads operations and go-to-market, helping build infrastructure that connects fintechs and payment platforms to digital assets and real-world yield products.

​Before Ground, Stephanie co-founded and served as COO of Veda and Seven Seas, which supported more than $6 billion in digital assets across leading protocols and fintech platforms. Her background also includes leadership roles across Web3, investment banking at Houlihan Lokey, a Columbia MBA, and service as a Captain in the U.S. Marine Corps.
