Mastercard & Visa Embrace Stablecoins: A New Era for Payments

from The Daily News Now! Business

Mastercards acquisition of BVNK, a stablecoin infrastructure firm, for up to $1.8 billion, positions the card giant as a bridge between its global network and on-chain payments. Visa also capitalizes on stablecoins, with over 160 linked card programs and a 200% YoY payment volume increase. Experts suggest stablecoins complement, not replace, credit cards, offering 24/7 liquidity and boosting fees. Visas stablecoin settlements generate a $7 billion annual run rate, up 50% last quarter.
