Stripe Explores Bank Partnerships as Stablecoins Become Key to Global Payments: Report

  • In early 2025, Stripe initiated preliminary talks with traditional financial institutions about incorporating stablecoins into its global payment offerings.
  • This follows Stripe's $1.1 billion acquisition of Bridge, a stablecoin platform that develops digital currency products tied to traditional finance.
  • Stripe now offers stablecoin accounts in more than 100 countries and supports fintechs launching stablecoin-linked cards, reflecting rising interest in stablecoins for real transactions.
  • John Collison, co-founder of Stripe, revealed in a Bloomberg interview that stablecoins are expected to handle a significant portion of the company's upcoming payment transactions, emphasizing their potential to lower expensive and slow cross-border fees.
  • Stripe's moves suggest stablecoins will play an increasingly central role in payments, but clearer regulations are needed to fully unleash their multi-trillion-dollar potential.
