現在，新加坡的購物者可以使用加密貨幣來支付在線索尼商店的小工具。

The feature, which launches today, will allow customers to check out using USDC via crypto exchange Crypto.com’s payment service. It’s the first time Sony is offering direct crypto transactions in the Southeast Asian country.

該功能今天啟動，將允許客戶通過Crypto Exchange Crypto.com的付款服務使用USDC查看。這是索尼第一次在東南亞國家提供直接加密交易。

The stablecoin option, which is currently exclusive to the Sony Store Online, will be available via Crypto.com’s payment system.

索尼商店在線專有的Stablecoin選項將通過Crypto.com的付款系統獲得。

With $60.06 billion in circulation, USDC is the second-most prominent stablecoin, following Tether’s USDT at $144.02 billion, according to CoinGecko. Circle, the company behind USDC, filed an S-1 with the U.S. SEC, intending to go public via an IPO.

根據Coingecko的數據，憑藉600.6億美元的流通，USDC是第二大傑出的Stablecoin，僅次於Tether的USDT為1440.2億美元。 USDC背後的公司Circle向美國SEC提交了S-1，打算通過IPO公開。

“We’re pushing to make paying in crypto more mainstream,” said Chin Tah Ang, General Manager of Crypto.com Singapore.

“我們正在努力使Crypto更多主流付款，” Crypto.com新加坡總經理Chin Tah Ang說。

“Partnering with a brand like Sony will help amplify the visibility of crypto payments and provide consumers with the seamless checkout experience they've come to expect from Sony.”

“與索尼這樣的品牌合作將有助於擴大加密貨幣的可見性，並為消費者提供他們期望的無縫結帳體驗。”

While the offering will start with just one crypto, Sony plans to add support for others in the future.

雖然產品將從一個加密貨幣開始，但索尼計劃將來對他人增加支持。

Sony Singapore did not immediately respond to Decrypt’s request for comment.

索尼新加坡沒有立即回應解密的置評請求。

The move comes amid a broader shift within Sony’s global operations toward blockchain and Web3 technologies.

這一舉動是在索尼的全球運營向區塊鍊和Web3技術的更廣泛轉變中發生的。

Earlier this year, Sony debuted Soneium, a custom-built Ethereum layer-2 network created by its Singapore-based subsidiary Sony Block Solutions Labs.

今年早些時候，索尼（Sony）首次亮相，這是由基於新加坡的子公司Sony Block Solutions Labs創建的定制以太坊2層網絡。

While Soneium operates quietly in the background, it’s intended to support a wide range of blockchain use cases, spanning digital collectibles, creator tools, and potentially, in-game economies tied to Sony’s entertainment empire.

儘管Soneium在背景中安靜地運行，但它旨在支持各種區塊鏈用例，涵蓋數字收藏品，創建者工具以及可能與索尼娛樂帝國相關的遊戲內經濟體。

In September, during its testing phase, Soneium integrated support for bridged USDC, positioning the token as a go-to option for transactions across apps built on the network.

9月，在其測試階段，Soneium對橋接USDC的綜合支持將令牌定位為跨網絡構建的應用程序的交易的首選。

Developers have since used Soneium to launch NFT collections, such as a soulbound drop celebrating Sony’s iconic Aibo robot, and early-stage games, with a growing catalog of consumer-facing tools.

此後，開發人員使用Soneium推出了NFT系列，例如慶祝索尼的標誌性AIBO機器人和早期遊戲的Soulbound Drop，並具有越來越多的面向消費者工具的目錄。

Crypto.com is also expanding its footprint rapidly.

Crypto.com也正在迅速擴展其足跡。

Last month, the exchange signed a non-binding agreement with Trump Media and Technology Group to launch crypto-focused ETFs, including offerings tied to Bitcoin (BTC) and its own Cronos (CRO) token.

上個月，該交易所與特朗普媒體和技術集團簽署了一項非約束協議，以推出以加密貨幣為中心的ETF，包括與比特幣（BTC）及其自己的CRONOS（CRO）代幣相關的產品。

Those funds are expected to go live on the Crypto.com platform following regulatory clearance.

這些資金有望在監管批准後在Crypto.com平台上啟用。

CRO has jumped 8.5% on the news to $0.10, according to CoinGecko.

根據Coingecko的說法，CRO的新聞上漲了8.5％，達到0.10美元。
