索尼电子新加坡宣布对美元硬币（USDC）付款的支持

在迈向主流零售中采用加密货币的重要一步中，索尼电子新加坡宣布现在将接受美元硬币（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.

索尼电子新加坡现在将接受美元硬币（USDC）通过其在线商店进行的购买，这一举动表明，主流零售领域的加密货币采用越来越多。

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.

该计划由领先的加密货币交易所和支付服务提供商Crypto.com的合作伙伴关系提供支持，它将允许客户使用USDC作为无缝和高效结帐体验的付款方式。

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付款的决定反映了对替代付款解决方案的需求不断增长，尤其是与比特币和以太坊（例如比特币和以太坊）相比提供价格稳定性的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.

该计划有望吸引精通技术的消费者和加密货币爱好者，他们更喜欢使用数字资产进行交易，同时保留基于区块链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.

这种伙伴关系标志着索尼更广泛的战略迈出了重要的一步，该战略将区块链和Web3技术纳入其业务运营。今年早些时候，索尼推出了由新加坡的子公司Sony Blovel Chain Solutions Lab开发的定制以太坊2层网络。

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

该网络旨在为分散的应用程序提供更大的可扩展性和安全性，从而强调索尼在塑造区块链技术的未来中的积极作用。

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.

作为发布会的一部分，索尼新加坡将开展限时促销活动，该活动将持续到2025年4月30日。使用Crypto.com Pay至少花费至少300新元的50个客户将获得Linkbuds发言人，价值为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购买S 100元或以上的前150名客户将获得20个USDC的奖励。预计该倡议将鼓励尽早采用，并提高对使用Stablecoins进行日常购买的好处的认识。

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

该计划还表明，索尼致力于促进传统电子商务与新兴的区块链金融世界之间的更大整合。

"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."

索尼新加坡的发言人说：“我们很高兴向新加坡的客户介绍这种新的付款方式。” “与Crypto.com的这种合作关系完全符合我们提供创新和以客户为中心的解决方案的愿景。”

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的首席执行官Krisno Yono补充说：“我们很高兴与Sony合作提供我们的Crypto.com付费服务，并将USDC的好处带给Sony客户。我们的任务是创建一个包容性和相互联系的生态系统，以释放加密货币的变革性。”

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.

这种伙伴关系标志着加密货币和电子商务融合的关键时刻，为消费者提供更广泛的付款方式的未来铺平了道路，并且品牌配备了该技术，可以无缝地接受加密货币。
