This represents the first time a major payment processor has simultaneously integrated multiple government-backed stablecoins (USD and EUR) across four distinct blockchain networks. The inclusion of PayPal's PYUSD creates unprecedented convergence between traditional banking, digital payments, and blockchain infrastructure - enabling programmable money at a scale never before possible.
Visa Adds USDG & EURC: Digital Currency Control Grid Expands
📰 What Happened
Visa announced expansion of its stablecoin settlement capabilities through partnership with Paxos, adding support for Global Dollar (USDG), PayPal USD (PYUSD), and Circle's euro-backed EURC. The payment giant will integrate these across four blockchains - Stellar, Avalanche, Ethereum and Bitcoin. CEO Ryan McInerney confirmed testing on Visa Direct platform to optimize international transactions. This marks Visa's largest simultaneous expansion of digital currency settlement options.
📖 Prophetic Significance
The combination of Visa's global reach (billions of users), multiple government currencies (USD/EUR), and four blockchain networks creates a technological foundation for worldwide economic control. The integration with Stellar enables instant cross-border settlements while Avalanche provides programmable smart contracts - essential components for implementing automated financial restrictions. When combined with recent CBDC pilots in 130+ countries and biometric payment trials, this creates the first comprehensive infrastructure capable of enforcing the prophesied economic controls of Revelation 13. The multi-chain approach particularly accelerates this by preventing dependency on any single blockchain.
