CEO Patrick Collison confirmed<\/a> <\/strong>on April 25 that the company is developing a stablecoin-based product, a project that had reportedly been under internal discussion for nearly a decade.<\/p>\n

Rather than rushing to market, Stripe waited for what Collison described as the right conditions to launch. Although full details are still under wraps, early indications suggest the first phase will focus on markets outside the U.S., EU, and UK.<\/p>\n

This expansion follows Stripe\u2019s $1.1 billion acquisition of Bridge earlier this year, a firm specializing in stablecoin infrastructure. Bridge\u2019s technology is set to underpin Stripe\u2019s upcoming digital currency offerings, providing the backbone for faster and cheaper cross-border transactions \u2014 a natural evolution for a company already processing billions across 135 currencies worldwide.<\/p>\n
