Race as U.S. Senate Passes GENIUS Act!!
šChinese e-commerce giant JD.com, led by founder Liu Qiangdong, has announced plans to seek stablecoin licenses in all major sovereign currency countries. The aim is to dramatically cut cross-border payment costsāby up to 90%āand reduce settlement time from several days to just 10 seconds.
šInitially focused on B2B transactions, JD.com intends to expand stablecoin use to consumers as infrastructure matures. While Liu admitted the risks of failure, he emphasized that bold moves are necessary for innovation and future competitiveness. The initiative aligns with JDās international supply chain ambitions without disrupting its core business.
