Visa moves to allow payment settlements using
cryptocurrency.
If we had to name the most disruptive development in the field of technology in recent
years, cryptocurrency and Blockchain will be at the top of the list. In this sector, Bitcoin
was the first cryptocurrency. It emphasised the fact that transactions can be completed
without the involvement of a third party, and that transactions can be completed faster
using a decentralised framework that ensures full data protection. While there are some
concerns about the cryptocurrency exchange's long-term viability, we must acknowledge
that it has opened a new window of opportunity for a new phase of the digital financial
revolution.

What is the latest buzz?
Despite the fact that many countries, such as China, are concerned about
cryptocurrency's long-term viability, many payment networks have recognised its
significance and witnessed its increasing acceptance.
Many payment networks are experimenting with cryptocurrency, and Visa is the most
recent addition to this list. The organisation has agreed to use its website to accept
cryptocurrency trading. It will enable users to settle transactions on its payment network
using the cryptocurrency USD Coin.

The USD Coin (USDC) is a stablecoin cryptocurrency that has a value tied to the US dollar.
Other sites, such as BlackRock Inc and Mastercard Inc, have embraced cryptocurrency in
addition to Visa. This acceptance clearly shows that we will see an increase in the use of
cryptocurrencies in the future, and they will sooner or later become a part of our
investment portfolio.
With Tesla announcing the purchase of its cars with Bitcoin, the adoption of
cryptocurrencies has made some significant strides. This move would help
cryptocurrency gain popularity in the e-commerce sector.

This was the most recent information on the use of cryptocurrencies. Many places are
also investigating the best ways to use cryptocurrencies. If you're looking to make a
smart investment, cryptocurrency is the way to go.
The question now is, what makes cryptocurrency so resilient? Its underlying platform,
Blockchain, is the solution. This decentralised ledger enables users to trade
cryptocurrencies more quickly without having to reveal their personal information.
Furthermore, the DL platform keeps all transaction details stable, making it the safest
platform for monetary exchange. Blockchain has a wide range of applications across
various industries, and this cryptocurrency exchange is one of them. In the coming years,
we can see a significant increase in the usage of Blockchain and its applications in the real
world.
