Building on Regulatory Clarity, Visa Bets Big on Stablecoins for Cross-Border Payments

Capitalizing on emerging regulatory certainty for USD-pegged tokens, Visa is making a substantial infrastructure investment in stablecoins.

The company plans to support four stablecoins across multiple blockchains, a key step in its pilot program for using stablecoins in cross-border payments.

CEO Ryan McInerney framed this as part of a broader trend, noting Visa has already facilitated over $140 billion in crypto and stablecoin flows. This strategic expansion aims to provide businesses with faster, more modern methods for international money transfer.
