Circle Partners with LianLian Global to Explore USDC for Cross-Border Payments
Circle Internet Group, the issuer of the USDC stablecoin, has entered into a partnership with licensed cross-border payments provider LianLian Global. The collaboration will evaluate the use of stablecoin infrastructure for international transactions, aiming to modernize treasury and settlement processes. The primary goal is to reduce friction in high-volume payment flows across different jurisdictions.
This initiative seeks to leverage USDC's regulatory compliance to enhance cost efficiency and interoperability for merchants operating in global markets. The MOVE reflects the growing institutional interest in stablecoins as a bridge between traditional finance and blockchain-based settlement systems.
