Visa has just taken a crucial step in its blockchain integration. The payments giant has formed a technical partnership with BVNK to connect stablecoins to its global infrastructure Visa Direct.
This collaboration marks a turning point: stablecoin-based payments can now pass through one of the largest traditional payment networks. It’s not just a technical integration; it’s a bridge between two worlds.
For the crypto ecosystem, this is a strong signal. Stablecoins are gaining legitimacy among institutional players. And for Visa, it’s a way to stay relevant in a changing financial landscape.
The Direct network, which already processes millions of cross-border transactions, can now include stablecoin transactions. This opens up interesting prospects for international payments and remittance, areas where blockchain promises efficiency gains.

Visa has finally gotten on board. It should have been like this a long time ago, or else it would really be left behind by the times.

Wait, Visa Direct can now run stablecoins? This requires a careful calculation—how will the gas cost structure of traditional payment networks change? If it still follows the traditional fee model, then the arbitrage opportunities might disappear. We need on-chain evidence to determine how much the funding efficiency of this matter can actually improve.

Finally, Visa is making moves... but we'll see if it's genuine or just washing.
