Uber Once Again Says It's Considering Crypto (USDC, USDT), Years After Mulling BTC Payments

  • On June 5, 2025, during an appearance in San Francisco at a Bloomberg technology event, Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi revealed that the company is investigating the use of stablecoins as a payment option.
  • This renewed interest follows previous considerations since 2021 and aligns with Uber's goal to reduce international transaction costs and enhance payment efficiency.
  • Khosrowshahi emphasized stablecoins offer practical benefits beyond value storage by enabling faster, cheaper global money transfers without intermediaries, which suits Uber’s scale.
  • He mentioned that stablecoins represent a compelling use case for cryptocurrency beyond serving solely as a store of value, while emphasizing that Uber is still evaluating the technology with no set plans for implementation.
  • If adopted, Uber’s stablecoin integration could mark a significant milestone in real-world crypto payments but currently lacks any firm rollout plan or official commitment.
