🛒💵 Walmart & Amazon Eye Stablecoins to Slash Payment Costs

📆 June 13, 2025

Two of the biggest U.S. retailers — Walmart and Amazon — are reportedly exploring launching their own dollar-pegged stablecoins, according to insiders cited by The Wall Street Journal.

Why it matters:
🔹 Cut payment processing fees
🔹 Reduce reliance on banks & card networks
🔹 Enable faster, blockchain-based settlement

🔗 Amazon is not holding Bitcoin in its treasury like some tech peers — but may favor stablecoins for real-world crypto integration.

💡 Other companies reportedly exploring stablecoins:
✈️ Major U.S. airlines
🏨 Expedia Group Inc.

📊 $USDT and $USDC have proven the model works:
✔️ $155B+ in USDT circulation
✔️ Global reach with low fees
✔️ Popular in cross-border payments
