The company Visa Inc announced that from now on its users will be able to make use of the cryptocurrency USD Coin, to process transactions within its network.
This responds to the current of growth and acceptance of this type of payments, which many companies, banks and payment processors have been implementing.
This Visa pilot program comes from the crypto.com platform, together with those who want to be able to bring this service to their partner portfolio.
It is important to mention that the USD Coin (USDC) is a stablecoin whose value is directly pegged to the dollar.
This is not the first time that a company of this style has done something related to cryptocurrencies. It should be remembered that Mastercard also adopted the use of some digital currencies, as did BlackRock Inc.
