China’s CNPC Explores Stablecoin Adoption for Global Trade
China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC), a state-owned energy giant, is advancing stablecoin adoption by exploring its use in cross-border trade. This MOVE signals growing institutional interest in decentralized financial systems within China's corporate sector.
The development reflects broader momentum for stablecoins as tools for global commerce, particularly among energy and commodity traders seeking efficient settlement mechanisms. While CNPC hasn't specified which stablecoins it's evaluating, the initiative demonstrates how traditional enterprises are increasingly bridging to blockchain-based solutions.
