With the world's largest merchants reportedly exploring the launch of their own stablecoins to streamline payments, improve settlement time and reduce transaction costs, the payment landscape is undergoing a seismic shift. BitRail, a leading fintech infrastructure provider, has enabled merchants and payment processors to ride this wave for several years—offering a fully compliant, closed loop, turnkey platform that helps merchants launch branded digital wallets, stablecoins, and ACH-based payment solutions.

According to AltcoinBuzz, several retail giants are investigating how blockchain-based currencies can deliver faster, cheaper, and more secure settlements—signaling a clear trend toward merchant-controlled payment ecosystems.

"Two of the world's largest merchants are moving toward their own stablecoins. Why? Because they offer additional security measures, are less expensive, and allow for near-instant settlement," said Jeff Siegel, CEO of BitRail. "We make that same power available to merchants of all sizes—saving them up to 50% on transactions, leveraging our Money Transmitter Licenses, removing the hassle of compliance and easing the load on their engineering team."
