Visa plans to broaden its settlement platform by adding two new U.S.‑dollar‑backed stablecoins (Global Dollar and PayPal USD) and two additional blockchains (Stellar and Avalanche) alongside existing support for Ethereum and Solana.
Visa executive Rubail Birwadker said the company is building a “multicoin and multichain foundation” and believes that trusted, scalable stablecoins could transform global money movement.
The platform will also let select partners settle in a euro‑denominated stablecoin, EURC, aiming to make Visa’s crypto‑settlement infrastructure more versatile across currencies and networks.
