$BTC Stripe launches stablecoin accounts in over 100 countries, marking a significant step for traditional financial giants to officially incorporate stablecoins into the global payment infrastructure. This transformation not only reshapes cross-border transaction models but also reveals the evolution path of stablecoins from "cryptographic tools" to "new pillars of global payments." The cost of cross-border payments using stablecoins is only 1/10 of SWIFT, and settlement time is reduced from 3-5 days to seconds. In countries with an annual inflation rate exceeding 50%, businesses are adopting USDC as a reserve for operating funds to avoid the depreciation of local currency eroding profits. Payment giants like Stripe and PayPal are integrating stablecoins, creating a two-way exchange channel between fiat and crypto assets. In Q1 2024, the transaction volume of USDC through traditional payment channels surged by 320% year-on-year. Regulated stablecoins lower the adoption threshold for businesses, especially meeting anti-money laundering requirements for multinational companies. Companies in countries like Russia and Iran are using USDC for trade settlements with the UAE and India, circumventing dollar-dominated financial blockades.
