$USDC ๐จ Visa & Mastercard Drop ~5%
Why the panic? Two words: Stablecoin Disruption.
๐ Reports that Amazon, Walmart, and others are exploring stablecoin-based payments are shaking up the traditional payment giants โ just as the GENIUS Act opens the regulatory door.
๐ธ Hereโs the threat:
Stablecoins like USDC can cut payment costs by up to 85%
They bypass Visa/Mastercard networks entirely
Thatโs billions in fee revenue at risk
๐ If stablecoins go mainstream, Visa & Mastercardโs business model is in serious trouble.
This isnโt just speculation โ the markets are reacting fast.
๐ Watch the players:
$USDC adoption
Retail giantsโ next move
Lawmakers' regulatory tone post-GENIUS Act
โ ๏ธ We may be witnessing the first real crack in the legacy payment empire.
