Overview

  • The expansion integrates PayPal USD (PYUSD), Paxos-issued Global Dollar (USDG) and Circle’s euro-backed EURC into Visa’s on-chain settlement network.
  • Visa has extended support to Stellar (XLM) and Avalanche (AVAX), joining Ethereum and Solana to cover four blockchains.
  • Select Visa partners can now settle transactions in both USD- and EUR-pegged stablecoins directly through the company’s treasury and crypto infrastructure.
  • The move builds on pilots that began with USDC settlements in 2021 and follows the 2025 GENIUS Act’s establishment of a federal stablecoin framework.
  • Rubail Birwadker said Visa aims to create an interoperable, scalable settlement foundation that can fundamentally transform cross-border money movement.
