Another important piece of the puzzle is @circle. Circle and CCTP represent a critical liquidity layer within this emerging infrastructure stack. $USDC on Stellar already plays a significant role in payments, settlement and global on/off-ramp networks. With CCTP now live on @StellarOrg, $USDC liquidity can move natively across supported blockchains without relying on traditional wrapped-asset bridges. That matters for companies building payment infrastructure at scale. @MoneyGram uses USDC on Stellar to connect digital assets with real-world cash access. Stripe and Bridge are building stablecoin rails for global payments. Circle provides one of the core liquidity assets moving through those rails. The broader picture is becoming increasingly clear. Tokenization creates the assets. Stablecoins provide the liquidity. Payment networks provide distribution. And blockchains like Stellar provide the settlement infrastructure underneath. The bigger picture: 👉🏻 @circle recently launched native CCTP on Stellar, allowing USDC liquidity to move seamlessly across supported blockchain networks. @MoneyGram continues to use Stellar as the foundation for its global digital cash and stablecoin infrastructure, connecting blockchain-based assets with hundreds of thousands of cash access locations worldwide. @FTDA_US/ Franklin Templeton has already established tokenized fund infrastructure on Stellar through its BENJI money market fund, making Stellar one of the leading networks for real-world asset tokenization. Stellar has also been part of Mastercard’s Crypto Credential ecosystem since 2024, helping enable verified and compliant interactions across blockchain networks. @moonpay remains deeply integrated into the Stellar ecosystem, providing fiat on- and off-ramp infrastructure for users and institutions. @stripe has expanded its stablecoin strategy while supporting payment flows connected to Stellar-based infrastructure, and its acquisition of Bridge further strengthens the broader stablecoin ecosystem surrounding the network. Bridge is building enterprise-grade stablecoin payment rails, while Stellar provides one of the key settlement and liquidity environments connected to that infrastructure. @wirexapp has already launched Visa-enabled stablecoin settlement using USDC and EURC on Stellar, demonstrating how blockchain-based payments can be integrated directly into real-world card networks. Viewed individually, these developments may appear unrelated. Viewed together, they highlight why Stellar continues to appear at the center of so many conversations around tokenization, payments, settlement and digital asset infrastructure.

LATEST: Mastercard will allow settlement of card transactions using regulated stablecoins across 8 blockchains: Ethereum, Solana, Polygon, XRPL, Aptos, Avalanche, Stellar, and Sui. Supported stablecoins include USDC, USDG, USDP, PYUSD, RLUSD, and SoFiUSD.
