PANews reported on April 30th that, according to CoinDesk, tech giant Meta, with the support of Stripe, has begun offering stablecoin payments to select creators, initially targeting certain creators in Colombia and the Philippines. Eligible users can link their crypto wallets to receive payments in USDC tokens issued by Circle on the Solana or Polygon blockchains. Stripe will provide cryptocurrency-related reports, and users may receive tax documents from both Meta and Stripe. Meta's social platform boasts over 3 billion users. This move marks Meta's re-entry into the stablecoin payments arena after shutting down its Libra (later renamed Diem) project in 2022 due to regulatory scrutiny.
