USDC Goes Mainstream Spend Crypto Like Cash
USDC, the dollar-backed stablecoin, is breaking into everyday life. Thanks to a new partnership between Visa and Bridge, users in Latin America can now spend USDC at over 150 million merchants worldwide—just like swiping a regular card.
Mastercard’s not far behind, teaming up with Circle, Paxos, and Nuvei to bring stablecoin payments global.
Why it matters:
• Stable value (1 USDC = $1)
• Fast, borderless payments
• Real-world utility
USDC is no longer just for crypto wallets—it’s becoming real money you can use anywhere.
