索尼電子新加坡宣布對美元硬幣（USDC）付款的支持

在邁向主流零售中採用加密貨幣的重要一步中，索尼電子新加坡宣布現在將接受美元硬幣（USDC）

Sony Electronics Singapore will now accept USD Coin (USDC) payments for purchases made through its online store, a move that signals the increasing adoption of cryptocurrency in the mainstream retail sector.

索尼電子新加坡現在將接受美元硬幣（USDC）通過其在線商店進行的購買，這一舉動表明，主流零售領域的加密貨幣採用越來越多。

The initiative, which is powered by a partnership with Crypto.com, a leading cryptocurrency exchange and payment services provider, will allow customers to use USDC as a payment option for a seamless and efficient checkout experience.

該計劃由領先的加密貨幣交易所和支付服務提供商Crypto.com的合作夥伴關係提供支持，它將允許客戶使用USDC作為無縫和高效結帳體驗的付款方式。

The decision to integrate USDC payments reflects the growing demand for alternative payment solutions, especially stablecoins which offer price stability in contrast to volatile cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum.

整合USDC付款的決定反映了對替代付款解決方案的需求不斷增長，尤其是與比特幣和以太坊（例如比特幣和以太坊）相比提供價格穩定性的Stablecoins。

The initiative is expected to attract tech-savvy consumers and cryptocurrency enthusiasts who prefer to perform transactions using digital assets while retaining the security and efficiency of blockchain-based payments.

該計劃有望吸引精通技術的消費者和加密貨幣愛好者，他們更喜歡使用數字資產進行交易，同時保留基於區塊鏈的付款的安全性和效率。

This partnership marks a significant step in Sony's broader strategy to incorporate blockchain and Web3 technologies into its business operations. Earlier this year, Sony introduced Soneium, a custom Ethereum layer-2 network developed by its Singapore-based subsidiary, Sony Blockchain Solutions Lab.

這種夥伴關係標誌著索尼更廣泛的戰略邁出了重要的一步，該戰略將區塊鍊和Web3技術納入其業務運營。今年早些時候，索尼推出了由新加坡的子公司Sony Blovel Chain Solutions Lab開發的定制以太坊2層網絡。

The network aims to provide greater scalability and security for decentralized applications, highlighting Sony's active role in shaping the future of blockchain technology.

該網絡旨在為分散的應用程序提供更大的可擴展性和安全性，從而強調索尼在塑造區塊鏈技術的未來中的積極作用。

As part of the launch, Sony Singapore will be running a limited-time promotional campaign, which will last until 30 April 2025. The first 50 customers to spend at least S$300 using Crypto.com Pay will receive a LinkBuds speaker, valued at S$299.

作為發布會的一部分，索尼新加坡將開展限時促銷活動，該活動將持續到2025年4月30日。使用Crypto.com Pay至少花費至少300新元的50個客戶將獲得Linkbuds發言人，價值為299新元。

Moreover, the first 150 customers to make purchases of S$100 or more using USDC will be rewarded with 20 USDC each. This initiative is anticipated to encourage early adoption and increase awareness of the benefits of using stablecoins for everyday purchases.

此外，使用USDC購買S 100元或以上的前150名客戶將獲得20個USDC的獎勵。預計該倡議將鼓勵儘早採用，並提高對使用Stablecoins進行日常購買的好處的認識。

The program also demonstrates Sony's commitment to promoting greater integration between traditional e-commerce and the burgeoning world of blockchain finance.

該計劃還表明，索尼致力於促進傳統電子商務與新興的區塊鏈金融世界之間的更大整合。

"We are excited to introduce this new payment option to our customers in Singapore," said a spokesperson for Sony Singapore. "This partnership with Crypto.com aligns perfectly with our vision to provide innovative and customer-centric solutions."

索尼新加坡的發言人說：“我們很高興向新加坡的客戶介紹這種新的付款方式。” “與Crypto.com的這種合作關係完全符合我們提供創新和以客戶為中心的解決方案的願景。”

Crypto.com's CEO, Krisno Yono, added: "We are thrilled to partner with Sony to offer our Crypto.com Pay service and bring the benefits of USDC to Sony customers. Our mission is to create an inclusive and interconnected ecosystem that unlocks the transformative power of cryptocurrency."

Crypto.com的首席執行官Krisno Yono補充說：“我們很高興與Sony合作提供我們的Crypto.com付費服務，並將USDC的好處帶給Sony客戶。我們的任務是創建一個包容性和相互聯繫的生態系統，以釋放加密貨幣的變革性。”

This partnership marks a pivotal moment in the convergence of cryptocurrency and e-commerce, paving the way for a future where consumers have a wider range of payment options and brands are equipped with the technology to accept cryptocurrencies seamlessly.

這種夥伴關係標誌著加密貨幣和電子商務融合的關鍵時刻，為消費者提供更廣泛的付款方式的未來鋪平了道路，並且品牌配備了該技術，可以無縫地接受加密貨幣。
