現在，新加坡的購物者可以使用加密貨幣從索尼商店在線購買小工具。

Sony Electronics Singapore announced on Tuesday that it has integrated USDC payments through Crypto.com’s service. This marks Sony’s first step into direct crypto transactions in the Southeast Asian city-state.

索尼電子新加坡週二宣布，它已通過Crypto.com的服務整合了USDC付款。這標誌著索尼進入東南亞城市國家直接加密交易的第一步。

USDC, a stablecoin linked to the U.S. dollar, will enable customers to make transactions securely without worrying about price fluctuations. However, this option is currently available only on the Sony Store Online and can be used through Crypto.com’s system.

USDC是與美元相關的穩定幣，將使客戶能夠安全進行交易，而不必擔心價格波動。但是，此選項目前僅在Sony Store在線上可用，可以通過Crypto.com的系統使用。

The integration of USDC, the second-largest stablecoin with a market capitalization of $60.06 billion, comes as Circle, the parent company of USDC, is preparing for an IPO. It has submitted an S-1 filing with the SEC, announcing its intention to make an initial public offering.

USDC的整合是第二大穩定股票，市值為600.6億美元，作為USDC的母公司Circle，正在為IPO做準備。它已向SEC提交了S-1文件，宣布打算進行首次公開​​募股。

The increasing adoption of USDC in transactions, like Sony’s latest move, is a testament to its growing trust and stability in the market.

USDC在交易中的採用越來越多，例如索尼的最新舉動，證明了它在市場上日益增長的信任和穩定性。

Chin Tah Ang, General Manager of Crypto.com Singapore, expressed optimism about pushing to make paying in crypto more mainstream.

Crypto.com新加坡總經理Chin Tah Ang對推動在Crypto付款更多主流方面表示樂觀。

“A brand like Sony can help boost crypto adoption around the world,” he said.

他說：“像索尼這樣的品牌可以幫助增強全球的加密貨幣採用。”

Sony’s move to accept crypto aligns with its shift toward blockchain and Web3 technologies earlier this year.

索尼接受加密貨幣的舉動與今年早些時候向區塊鍊和Web3技術的轉變保持一致。

The Japanese tech giant unveiled Soneium, an Ethereum layer-2 network developed by its Singapore-based subsidiary, Sony Block Solutions Labs.

這家日本科技巨頭揭開了由新加坡的子公司Sony Block Solutions Labs開發的以太坊2層網絡。

While Soneium has been operating in the background, it has played a crucial role in supporting blockchain-based projects. The platform is designed to power digital collectibles, creator tools, and even in-game economies linked to Sony’s entertainment business.

儘管Soneium一直在後台運行，但它在支持基於區塊鏈的項目中發揮了至關重要的作用。該平台旨在為數字收藏品，創建者工具，甚至與索尼娛樂業務相關的遊戲中的經濟體提供動力。

During its testing phase in September, Soneium integrated support for bridged USDC, highlighting the token’s usability in Web3 transactions. Developers have already used Soneium to launch NFT collections, including a soulbound drop celebrating Sony’s popular Aibo robot. Additionally, early-stage blockchain games and consumer-friendly tools are gradually being introduced to expand the ecosystem.

在9月的測試階段，Soneium對橋接USDC的綜合支持突出了令牌在Web3交易中的可用性。開發人員已經使用Soneium推出了NFT系列，其中包括慶祝索尼受歡迎的Aibo機器人的靈魂行動。此外，正在逐步引入早期區塊鏈遊戲和對消費者友好的工具以擴展生態系統。

Crypto.com is gradually increasing its presence in the crypto arena. Crypto.com entered into a non-binding deal with Trump Media and Technology Group to introduce cryptocurrency-backed exchange-traded funds (ETFs). The ETFs will feature products on Bitcoin (BTC) and Crypto.com’s native cryptocurrency, Cronos (CRO).

Subject to regulatory approval, the funds will be available on the Crypto.com platform. As the announcement was made, the CRO price surged 8.5% to $0.10.
