Circle and LianLian Global Forge Strategic Partnership to Expand USDC in Cross-Border Payments
Circle Internet Group has entered a strategic partnership with LianLian Global to explore stablecoin-based payment infrastructure, aiming to streamline cross-border transactions for merchants and digital platforms. The collaboration will focus on leveraging USDC to enhance settlement speed and reduce friction in high-volume payment flows.
The initiative targets emerging markets and evaluates Arc blockchain use cases, potentially reshaping treasury operations. Circle's regulated affiliate will work with LianLian to demonstrate how digital dollar stablecoins can improve upon traditional correspondent banking systems plagued by delays.
This MOVE signals growing institutional recognition of stablecoin utility in global finance. The partnership could accelerate adoption of blockchain-based settlement rails, particularly in regions where access to efficient payment systems remains limited.
