In 2023, Stripe announced its support for accepting payments using the stablecoin USDC (a stablecoin pegged to the US dollar) on the Solana, Ethereum, and Polygon networks. This means that merchants and users who use Stripe can:

Receive payments in USDC.

Send money internationally quickly and at a lower cost.

Convert stablecoins to traditional currencies (such as the dollar) within their accounts.

This update helps facilitate e-commerce, especially in countries facing banking or currency conversion issues.
