Visa Doubles Down on Stablecoins Ahead of 2026

[johnblockbuster]

Visa appears positioned to accelerate crypto card growth in 2026 as it expands its stablecoin strategy. The payments giant now supports stablecoins across four blockchains and continues to form partnerships aimed at making crypto-based payments accessible to both consumers and institutions.

In December, Visa launched a dedicated stablecoin advisory team to help banks, merchants, and fintechs deploy stablecoin products. Industry observers say this move signals Visa’s belief that crypto cards and stablecoins are becoming core infrastructure for global payments, not just niche offerings.
