Stripe 现在允许 150 多个国家的商家接受 USDC 付款

USDC 发行人 Circle 的首席执行官 Jeremy Allaire 表达了他对 X 的热情，他表示：“在为美国企业推出的 Stripe 产品中正式推出并支持 USDC 支付，非常高兴看到这一切如何展开！”

Payment processing giant Stripe has announced the integration of USD Coin (USDC) payments for businesses in the U.S., marking a significant step in the crypto community's efforts to enhance digital currency usage in daily commerce.

支付处理巨头 Stripe 宣布为美国企业整合美元硬币 (USDC) 支付，这标志着加密货币社区在增强数字货币在日常商务中的使用方面迈出了重要一步。

The development was teased earlier this year and has now come to fruition, much to the excitement of crypto enthusiasts. Stripe's foray into crypto payments began in 2014 with Bitcoin support, which was later discontinued in 2018 due to concerns over the cryptocurrency's volatility, slow transaction speeds, and high fees.

该开发项目于今年早些时候被提出，现在已经实现，令加密货币爱好者兴奋不已。 Stripe 于 2014 年开始进军加密支付领域，支持比特币，但由于担心加密货币的波动性、交易速度慢和费用高，该服务于 2018 年停止。

However, the company's renewed focus on stablecoins, specifically USDC, aims to address these earlier challenges. USDC's price stability and faster transaction capabilities offer a more practical and user-friendly experience for both businesses and consumers.

然而，该公司重新关注稳定币，特别是 USDC，旨在解决这些早期的挑战。 USDC的价格稳定性和更快的交易能力为企业和消费者提供了更加实用和人性化的体验。

With this integration, businesses can now accept USDC payments from customers in over 150 countries, expanding their global reach and catering to the growing demand for crypto payment options. Stripe will automatically convert USDC payments into U.S. dollars for merchants, eliminating the need for them to handle cryptocurrency directly. This streamlined approach simplifies the integration process and reduces potential risks associated with managing digital assets.

通过这种集成，企业现在可以接受来自 150 多个国家/地区的客户的 USDC 付款，扩大其全球影响力并满足对加密支付选项不断增长的需求。 Stripe 将为商家自动将 USDC 付款转换为美元，从而消除他们直接处理加密货币的需要。这种简化的方法简化了集成流程，并降低了与管理数字资产相关的潜在风险。

The feature is integrated across various Stripe products, including Stripe Checkout, Elements, and the Payment Intents API, ensuring a smooth and familiar experience for businesses already utilizing Stripe's services. Support for Stripe's subscription feature is also planned for the future, further expanding the utility of USDC payments for recurring billing and subscription services.

该功能集成在各种 Stripe 产品中，包括 Stripe Checkout、Elements 和 Payment Intents API，确保已经使用 Stripe 服务的企业获得流畅且熟悉的体验。未来还计划支持 Stripe 的订阅功能，进一步扩大 USDC 支付在定期计费和订阅服务中的效用。

This move by Stripe follows in the footsteps of its rival PayPal, which expanded its services to include crypto rails for transactions in 2021. The reintroduction of crypto payments by a major player like Stripe is a significant development for the cryptocurrency industry, potentially paving the way for wider adoption of digital currencies in everyday commerce.

Stripe 的这一举措追随了其竞争对手 PayPal 的脚步，后者在 2021 年将其服务扩展为包括用于交易的加密货币轨道。像 Stripe 这样的主要参与者重新引入加密支付是加密货币行业的一项重大发展，可能为加密货币行业铺平道路在日常商务中更广泛地采用数字货币。

Beyond USDC, Stripe has also been actively exploring other integrations within the crypto space. In June, the company partnered with Coinbase to incorporate the crypto exchange’s Layer 2 network, Base, into its crypto payout products and enable users to purchase digital assets with credit cards or Apple Pay within the Coinbase Wallet. Stripe has also integrated with the Avalanche blockchain network, providing easier access to the Avalanche ecosystem for its retail customers. Ava Labs, the development company behind Avalanche, announced that its Core wallet would utilize Stripe’s fiat-to-crypto onramp services.

除了 USDC 之外，Stripe 还积极探索加密领域内的其他集成。 6 月，该公司与 Coinbase 合作，将加密货币交易所的第 2 层网络 Base 纳入其加密支付产品中，使用户能够在 Coinbase 钱包内使用信用卡或 Apple Pay 购买数字资产。 Stripe 还与 Avalanche 区块链网络集成，为其零售客户提供更轻松的访问 Avalanche 生态系统的方式。 Ava Labs 是 Avalanche 背后的开发公司，宣布其 Core 钱包将利用 Stripe 的法币到加密货币入口服务。
