On May 8, 2025, Meta (parent company of Facebook) returns to the crypto space, planning to integrate stablecoin to reduce payment fees, joining the wave from Visa, Stripe, and the Trump administration. Will stablecoin shape the future of digital finance? Let's analyze in detail.


Meta Resurrects Crypto Ambitions

After the failure of Libra/Diem (2019-2022), #Meta is restarting plans to integrate stablecoins like USDT, USDC into the ecosystem, aiming to reduce cross-border payment fees, especially for global content creators. According to Fortune, Meta is negotiating with blockchain companies and appointing Ginger Baker – former Ripple director – as Vice President of Product. Ripple also launched RLUSD and is in talks to acquire Circle (issuer of USDC), indicating an increasingly lively stablecoin race.


The Libra Legacy And Meta's Moves

Libra (later renamed Diem) once aimed to create a global digital currency but halted in 2022 due to regulatory pushback. Diem's intellectual property was sold to Silvergate, but the MOVE technology still lives on in blockchains like Aptos and Sei. Meta continues to show interest in crypto, registering numerous trademarks from 2022-2023 related to trading and digital asset exchanges, raising concerns from US lawmakers like Maxine Waters.


The Stablecoin Race: From Technology to Geopolitics

Stablecoin becomes a strategic tool:



  • Visa: Investing in startup BVNK, acknowledging the role of stablecoin in global payments.


  • Stripe: Launching stablecoin accounts in over 100 countries, supporting storage, conversion, and fiat withdrawals.


  • World Liberty Financial (WLFI): Backed by the Trump family, launching USD1 (March 2025), reaching the 7th position in stablecoin market capitalization (230 billion USD, Citigroup).



The Trump administration sees stablecoin as a way to expand USD power, attracting cash flow into US bonds. However, the GENIUS bill to legalize stablecoin was blocked by the Senate, leaving Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent disappointed: 'This is a rare opportunity to expand USD power.'


Impact on the Crypto Market

This event brings many signals:



  • Increasing trust: Stablecoin is supported by major players, assisting a crypto fund flow of 3.4 billion USD last week and Bitcoin ETF (1.8 billion USD).

  • Boosting DeFi: $USDC , USD1 could increase liquidity, supporting projects like Haedal (TVL 200 million USD).


  • Long-term growth: Forecasting an accumulation of 330 billion USD into Bitcoin by 2029 (Bernstein) needs a clear legal framework.



Future Prospects

If Meta successfully integrates stablecoin in the next 1-2 years, it could reduce global payment costs, boost DeFi, and Web3. Despite facing legal barriers, the wave from Visa, Stripe, and Trump indicates that stablecoin will shape digital finance.


Conclusion: Will Stablecoin Dominate Digital Finance?

Meta re-enters crypto, integrating stablecoin, alongside Visa, Stripe, and $TRUMP with USD1, creating a wave of expanding digital USD. Although the GENIUS bill failed, stablecoin remains at the center of the global financial race. Investors should closely monitor to anticipate trends.
