💳 Visa shifts settlement to stablecoins volume already exceeds $20B

Stablecoins are gradually moving beyond the crypto market and becoming part of the global payments infrastructure.

What’s happening at Visa:

💬 $20B+ annual stablecoin settlement volume. That’s more than 15× higher than a year ago.

🟡 160+ card programs using stablecoins are already operating across the Visa network.

💬 Payment volume through these programs has grown by almost 200% year over year.

So what’s changing❔
For users, almost nothing: the card still works as usual.
But behind the scenes, the payment infrastructure is changing. Part of the settlement between participants is gradually moving from traditional banking rails to blockchain-based rails.

And the interesting part isn’t just the $20B figure it’s the speed of growth: more than 15× in a year.
Stablecoins increasingly look less like a standalone crypto product and more like a component of the broader financial infrastructure.

💬 What do you think will change the financial system faster: stablecoins or AI ❔
