Visa launches stablecoin platform as major payment networks enter crypto settlement
Visa rolled out its Visa Stablecoin Platform (VSP), enabling institutions to issue and transact stablecoins on Visa rails. Major corporations (Goldman, Samsung) are entering the market, signaling regulatory legitimacy and production readiness for tokenized payments at scale.
WHY IT MATTERS
Stablecoin adoption on tier-1 payment networks reduces friction for enterprise treasury and settlement; banks must now integrate tokenized rails into existing liquidity workflows or risk losing custody to nonbanks.
