Visa Expands Stablecoin Settlement Pilot Across Nine Blockchain Networks

Visa has made significant strides in expanding its footprint in the blockchain space by introducing support for five additional networks in its stablecoin settlement pilot. The update brings the total number of supported blockchains to nine, including Coinbase’s Base, Polygon, Canton Network, Circle’s Arc, and Stripe-backed Tempo.

The inclusion of these new networks marks a notable expansion of Visa's efforts to promote the adoption of stablecoins as a key component in global payments infrastructure. The move is particularly significant in cross-border settlement use cases, where speed and cost efficiency remain critical pain points.
