Stripe: Stablecoins are becoming a fundamental part of the global payment infrastructure

GateNews

BlockBeats News, February 24 — Payment giant Stripe announced that stablecoins are becoming a core part of the global payment infrastructure, no longer tied to cryptocurrency price fluctuations.

By 2025, even if Bitcoin prices decline, stablecoin payment transaction volume is expected to double, mainly due to their increasing practical use in commercial transactions.

However, current blockchains may struggle to keep up with this growth. Stripe warned that with automation and AI-driven business expansion, future systems might need to process millions to billions of transactions per second.
