The cryptocurrency payment platform Mesh has announced the upcoming launch of a new feature that supports Apple Pay, allowing consumers to shop with cryptocurrency while merchants settle in stablecoins, without directly dealing with crypto assets. This feature utilizes Mesh's proprietary SmartFunding technology to convert cryptocurrency to stablecoins in real-time at checkout, and is expected to go live in the second quarter of this year. Previously, Mesh completed a $82 million funding round led by Paradigm. (CoinDesk)
