Visa has introduced the Visa Stablecoin Platform (VSP), enabling banks, fintechs, and payment providers to mint, store, transfer, and redeem stablecoins through a single system. The platform initially supports Open USD, a stablecoin backed by a consortium including Visa and Mastercard, offering fee-free minting and a shared revenue model.
