It is quite peculiar. Visa is actually in an oligopoly along with mastercard and american express. I think that this signifies a concession towards cryptocurrencies but as a form of trial. Ethereum is, as today, expensive, inefficient and subpar to any established network. However, Visa´s management does understand what is to be disrupted and it speaks of their good sense that they take this stance.

I still don't understand the mechanism of the transactions.
so they will take another fee besides the network fees?
with the current gas fees, is it still a better offer rather than their conventional service?
or these stablecoins will be an underlying of the digits shown on the app?

Then it would be better to use BUSD, there the commission is lower and the transaction speed is much higher. I don't understand why such large corporations look only towards Bitcoin and Ethereum.
Surely they would really go first on where the community been supporting the most which is Bitcoin and next with ETH on the altcoin side thats why these common recognitions can re ally be seen.
It doesnt matter on what they would use as long this do show up some adoption move then thats already considered as a good one.This would be an eye opener for other big companies
out there and i wont be surprised if there would be other news about payment integration with crypto. We are really heading there!

we've seen it, haven't we?
when Paypal initially announced the adoption of bitcoin, the price went up too high and was one of the invitations for a visa. Until finally in 2021, Visa announced this, as did PayPal before, and the price of bitcoin also soared.

that even from a simple point of view, we firmly believe massive adoption always makes bitcoin unmatched. we still remember at that time before Paypal announced the adoption of bitcoin, the price of bitcoin was doubted by the soaring DeFi coin. but quite a few months Bitcoin silenced and emphasized we will still be in the forefront.

Which coin is more popular than Bitcoin and Ethereum? Especially for new people who have just entered the cryptocurrency world.
Or just try to imagine yourself as a newcomer in cryptocurrency, which coin comes to your mind first when you heard about cryptocurrency?

Almost every company would like to gain more customers for sure, and you cant attract people if you're talking about unpopular coins.

it's in Latin America where there are more unbank people which is why there are more demands there. but won't this also have a high fee as it's on the Ether network?

hope to see a new ATH with this news. it's been sitting on the 54k-57k for a while already it gets dull. it shoots today but didn't breakout thoroughly, a new month and a new green candle stick hopefully.

finally this time has arrived. with ethereum 2.0 all of these applications will be launched to a "next level" and it will be more easy for all us cash out all crypto currency. Other competitors will join the effort of VISA since cryptos can't be ignored at this point in the history.
I am waiting for the next move. Other big companies will accept bitcoin for payment or... for salary?
I think that this is just a fire starter for all crypto industry...

Glad to now that this have choose ETH for thier first crypto transaction
I hope that this news will bring another good impact for ethereum in the future but the problem is about how visa can handle the transaction fees. if that doesn't even need to be converted into the fiat but it's still running on ethereum with very high fees.

I think this makes Bitcoin even more solid when it comes to investing—creating more and more people who want to be part of the crypto space. That's just how much it is valued right now, and a lot more people are seeing the reason why they are switching or hedging to BTC instead of staying in fiat currency. I do believe there's another pump incoming and hopefully, it goes to the moon even more.

USDC is a good stable coin to have, for sure, especially when you compare it to USDT  Shocked

It's interesting choice of coin. It's good that's not USDT, it's somewhat surprising it's not GUSD. It's even more interesting that they didn't wait for the official digital dollar.
Of course, this is just one step forward and it doesn't say whether Bitcoin is going to be next or not. Still, it's good great news for all crypto.

The official usd might take a while... will it run in ethereum? I think it will have it's own blockchain.
Ethereum is way more flexible, I hope they dont get into problems with regulations and end up being forced to use official usd only

A new event that will stop the correction.  Grin
I think it's enough for us not to see another landslide again.

Unlike the last decade, this ain't like crawling anymore for crypto currencies to take over.
This is a high leap and looking back makes any crypto supporter proud of themselves. The new era is of financial transactions is really happening.

The really big players are here, finally. We deserve this.
Probably not yet; when the days appointed for the big players to surface the entire world will take a stand-still IMO but, having the likes of these new players is a welcome development and should-be celebrated as such. VISA complete their first Crypto-Trans-on-ETH shows that better days are mostly close. [NB]: Those panic sellers should be thought not to waste-their hard earn resources becasue there will be huge profit for those who understand LTH-[Long Term Holding] soon.

Visa today. Discover tomorrow? American Express next week?

This is good news.

I smell a new Ath coming this week.
yeah, make sure the VISA competitors will try to follow it...
The new ATH, I am sure of it, is just a matter of time. The adoption of cryptocurrencies is increasingly becoming apparent, I can't wait for more and more institutions to adopt cryptocurrencies.

Well, it looks like VISA made a good move after seeing Tesla support bitcoin for their electric vehicle purchases.  It should have happened earlier even if they didn't choose bitcoin, but with USDC on Ethereum's platform, it would probably be possible for them to study the adoption of ETH in the future.  That would be a huge and very sexy excitement!

VISA is rightly helpful in the development of bitcoin by accepting payments through cryptocurrencies. I am sure some financial companies in the world are also starting to adopt cryptocurrency as a medium of payment and transactions. There are even those who can buy bitcoin there like PayPal.

Fresh enough news to support the new ATH.  Having experienced a few days of red day, I think it's enough time to get to the highest level.  It's institutional investors like these who keep driving the crypto world better.  This hype has brought many positive influences such as equal distribution of crypto-related literacy in society.  If in the past 1 in 50 of my friends only knew about bitcoin, now 10 of my 50 friends have invested.  This indicates that crypto is not only a scam but has become an attractive asset with a return that is enough to make eyes fresh.

There must be a reason for that. Do you think these large corporations do not do their homework before making any commitments?

No comment on BUSD but if we talk of cryptocurrency it is more about Bitcoin and Ethereum than other blockchains. But you should not worry about which is being preferred today by these large corporations. There are still a lot of other corporations that would follow these very early steps. One or two of them might prefer BUSD.
