🌐 Stripe Stablecoin Account Overview
Stripe's new features allow users to send, receive, and hold USD stablecoin balances in over 100 countries, similar to traditional fiat bank accounts. Currently supported stablecoins include Circle's USDC and Bridge's USDB. These accounts are designed to provide more stable financial tools for countries with high inflation, capital controls, or weak financial infrastructure.
