Coins.ph has added Bitcoin and Ethereum to the Philippines' national QR Ph payment network, allowing users to spend these cryptocurrencies at nearly 700,000 merchants nationwide. This integration expands the use of digital assets beyond stablecoins, enabling everyday retail transactions such as groceries and tuition payments through real-time backend liquidations that protect users from crypto volatility. The move supports crypto-native earners and aligns with new Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas regulations that enhance oversight of virtual asset providers. Coins.ph is also preparing to launch a Philippine Peso-backed stablecoin (PHPC) to reduce foreign exchange costs, pending central bank approval, aiming to further embed digital currencies into local commerce.
