#StripeStablecoinAccounts StripeStablecoinAccounts

Stripe has reintroduced cryptocurrency payments, allowing US merchants to accept stablecoins like USDC and USDP through the Ethereum, Solana, and Polygon blockchains. On the first day, users from over 70 countries utilized this feature, highlighting the global demand for alternative payment methods. Transactions are converted into US dollars and stored in a Stripe wallet, with a fee of 1.5%—lower than traditional card processing fees. This move follows Stripe's acquisition of Bridge, a $1.1 billion stablecoin infrastructure platform, enhancing its cryptocurrency capabilities. By integrating stablecoin payments, Stripe aims to provide fast, efficient solutions.
