🚨#BigTechStablecoin : New Digital Arms Race 💥

By June 2025, the stablecoin space is no longer just the battlefield of crypto-native players — major tech companies are officially entering the fray.🏦💻

🔹 Apple shocked the market in May by launching the dollar-backed stablecoin ApplePayUSD, seamlessly integrated into the Apple Wallet ecosystem. The user adoption is astonishing: over 30 million iPhone users activated it within the first three weeks of launch. Apple's closed user experience, hardware dominance, and the influence of the App Store could fundamentally reshape the definition of 'mainstream crypto'.

🔹 Meta's Novi project has been resurrected. Now rebuilt on LayerZero, it boasts cross-chain capabilities, temporarily named MetaCoin, rumored to launch this summer, primarily for cross-border payments via WhatsApp and Instagram direct messages.

🔹 Amazon is also busy — insiders reveal that its 'Project Orion' is currently in internal testing, which is a stablecoin project integrated with AWS and Prime. Imagine: frictionless payments + loyalty rewards + native DeFi settlement.

🔹 Meanwhile, Google quietly invested in Circle and EigenLayer, signaling support for the dominance of USDC and decentralized infrastructure.

💡 What does this mean?

Because stablecoins from major tech companies could bypass banks, challenge SWIFT, and attract billions of users — while collecting more behavioral financial data.

⚠️ Critics warn that this could evolve into a 'monopoly currency' and a tool for financial surveillance, while regulators are divided: some see systemic risks, while others view it as a pathway to promote global financial inclusion.

👉 One thing is already clear: the battle for stablecoins is no longer 'crypto vs fiat' — but rather Silicon Valley vs Wall Street.
