Ramp Network’s Stablecoin Revolution: Reimagining Cross-Border Payments
Ramp Network is leveraging stablecoins to transform the archaic remittance landscape. Traditional cross-border payments remain plagued by inefficiencies—multiple intermediaries, exorbitant fees, and sluggish settlement times. Stablecoins collapse these friction points into a single rail, enabling near-instant, low-cost value transfer. The implications are profound, particularly in regions like Latin America where remittance pain points are acute.
Max Sandy, Ramp's Head of Product, frames the opportunity starkly: sending $100 today can mean losing $10 to fees and waiting days for settlement. Stablecoins rewrite this equation. The vision? A global payment app where moving money mirrors the simplicity of sending a message. While technology enables the shift, success hinges on accessibility, compliance, and trust—areas where Ramp is concentrating its product strategy.
