Meta Targets Stablecoin Rollout This Year as Rules Become Clearer
Meta is revisiting stablecoin technology with plans to integrate a dollar-pegged payment system via a third-party vendor by year-end. The initiative hinges on successful partnership integration, potentially launching in the second half of 2024.
Stripe emerges as a key candidate for the pilot, leveraging its 2023 acquisition of Bridge, a stablecoin payments specialist. The collaboration is bolstered by Stripe CEO Patrick Collison's position on Meta's board since April 2025.
The project advances quietly, with Meta circulating product proposals while maintaining corporate silence. No official comments have been made regarding the wallet infrastructure or payment rail specifications.
