World Network and Visa Discuss Stablecoin Wallet Integration
World Network, co-founded by OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, is reportedly in discussions with Visa to integrate stablecoin-based payment capabilities into its digital wallet, according to Reuters. If successful, this initiative could transform the World Wallet into a multifunctional financial tool, enabling users to make stablecoin payments at thousands of merchants worldwide that accept Visa.
The collaboration aims to incorporate Visa card functionality into the World Network system, allowing the World Wallet to function as a 'mini bank account' for users. This would enable a range of fintech applications, including fiat on and off-ramps and foreign exchange capabilities.
Tools for Humanity, the organization behind World Network, has reached out to card issuers, including Visa, to explore potential product collaborations. Additionally, World Network is engaging with crypto card facilitators like Rain, which has previously introduced on-chain Visa cards for blockchain networks such as Optimism and Avalanche.
This move underscores efforts by industry players to integrate cryptocurrency into the mainstream payments ecosystem, as digital assets continue to gain acceptance.
