Stripe, a global payment platform, has introduced Stablecoin -based accounts to customers in more than 100 countries.
According to a May 7 advertisement, the new feature will allow the platform customers to “send, receive and keep balances of Dollar-Dollar Stablocoin accounts, similar to the way in which a traditional Fiat account works.”
The product technical page shows that the new account function will admit the USDC (USDC) and USDB (USDB) stable (USDB) of Circle Bridge. Stripe acquired the Bridge platform in October 2024.
