📢 VISA EXPANDS ITS STRATEGY IN STABLECOINS!

The payment giant is doubling down on the use of stablecoins for international settlements, now integrating 2 new blockchains: Avalanche and Stellar.

🔍 What has changed?

Visa had already begun tests with USDC on the Ethereum blockchain. Now, it expands its operations to:

• Stellar ($XLM ): known for its efficiency in cross-border transfers and micropayments.

• Avalanche ($AVAX ): a network with high scalability and low fees.

.

📦 The proposal is clear:

Reduce intermediaries, costs, and timeframes in transfers between countries using stablecoins like USDC, in a fully programmable manner.

.

💰 Which stablecoins are being used by Visa?

The company confirmed that its infrastructure is now compatible with:

• USDC (from Circle)

• PYUSD (from PayPal)

• USDG (issued by Paxos)

• EURC (tokenized euro, also from Circle)

🌐 And besides the new integrations with Stellar and Avalanche, Visa was already operating previously with Ethereum and Solana.

💡 Why does this matter for the crypto market?

• Visa validates the real use of public blockchains in concrete business cases.

• The choice of Stellar and Avalanche highlights the maturation of projects beyond Ethereum.

• It shows that stablecoins are not just for traders — but a real bridge between the traditional system and the new one.

🌐 And what about XRP?

Although it was not mentioned, Visa's move directly touches the global settlement sector, where XRP is one of the main players.

The race for efficiency is just beginning.

⚠️ But… why didn’t AVAX and XLM rise with this news?

Despite the institutional importance of this announcement, both AVAX and XLM continue to decline.

📉 This type of integration solidifies the real value of these networks, which may not be “booming” now, but are positioning themselves where it matters: in the infrastructure of the future.
