Visa and Nium want to determine whether stablecoins can make cross-border settlement faster and more flexible while maintaining the security, compliance, and risk controls used by traditional payment networks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Visa Joins Singapore&#8217;s BLOOM Initiative<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">BLOOM is an initiative led by the Monetary Authority of Singapore designed to explore how tokenized bank liabilities and regulated stablecoins can work alongside existing financial infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Visa&#8217;s participation adds one of the world&#8217;s largest payment networks to the program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Under the pilot, Visa will work with Nium to test how traditional payment systems can connect with stablecoin settlement rails without abandoning existing compliance and security requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nium will serve as Visa&#8217;s first partner for a stablecoin settlement test conducted under BLOOM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The companies have not yet disclosed which specific stablecoins will be used. However, the initial scope will include regulated stablecoins backed by the U.S. dollar and euro.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pilot Targets Seven-Day Stablecoin Settlement<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A major goal of the project is to enable settlement throughout the entire week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Traditional financial settlement is often linked to banking hours and business days. As a result, transactions made during weekends or public holidays may face delays before financial institutions can complete certain settlement processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Stablecoins operate on blockchain networks that can remain available around the clock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Visa and Nium will test whether this infrastructure can allow financial institutions to settle obligations outside conventional banking hours and gain faster access to funds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The change would primarily affect the settlement layer behind payments rather than the way consumers make purchases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Customers could continue using familiar payment methods while stablecoins potentially operate behind the scenes between participating institutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Stablecoins Could Make Payment Infrastructure More Programmable<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Visa believes stablecoins could complement existing payment infrastructure rather than replace it entirely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Blockchain-based settlement can allow transactions to take place continuously and can support programmable financial processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For financial institutions, this could provide greater control over when settlement takes place and how liquidity is managed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Visa&#8217;s Regional Southeast Asia executive Adeline Kim said the future of payments will increasingly depend on different forms of money and different payment networks working together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The company&#8217;s approach suggests it views stablecoins as another settlement option that can be integrated with existing financial infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Security, regulatory compliance, resilience, and risk management remain central requirements for Visa as it expands its blockchain-based settlement work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">BLOOM Is Expanding Singapore&#8217;s Tokenized Finance Strategy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Singapore launched BLOOM in 2025 as part of its wider effort to develop practical applications for tokenized money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The initiative focuses on areas including domestic and international payments, multi-currency settlement, corporate treasury operations, trade finance, and automated payments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Participants associated with BLOOM have included major financial and technology companies such as Circle, DBS, OCBC, Partior, Stripe, and UOB.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The program builds on Project Orchid, an earlier Monetary Authority of Singapore initiative exploring programmable money and potential digital forms of the Singapore dollar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">More than 10 trials were conducted through Project Orchid before parts of that work moved toward commercial applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">BLOOM represents a further step toward testing how blockchain-based money can interact with established financial infrastructure in real-world settings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ripple Has Also Tested Stablecoin Payments Under BLOOM<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Visa and Nium are not the first companies to explore stablecoin applications through the Singapore initiative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A BLOOM project announced earlier in 2026 involved Ripple and supply-chain finance company Unloq.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The companies explored the use of Ripple&#8217;s RLUSD stablecoin on the XRP Ledger for trade-finance applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The proposed system connected settlement with factors such as shipment verification and financing conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Visa&#8217;s project approaches the issue from another direction by concentrating on interoperability between established cross-border payment infrastructure and stablecoin settlement networks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The involvement of multiple companies demonstrates how Singapore is using BLOOM to explore different institutional stablecoin use cases rather than focusing on one specific blockchain or token.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Nium Brings Cross-Border Payment Experience to the Pilot<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nium already operates a large international payments network and has previously integrated stablecoins into its services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The company announced a USDC integration with Coinbase earlier in 2026 that allowed businesses to use stablecoins for international payouts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nium&#8217;s network reaches more than 190 countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Through the integration, businesses can fund payouts using USDC while recipients can potentially receive funds either in stablecoins or local currencies, depending on the available service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Coinbase provides supporting infrastructure including custody, liquidity, and wallets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One potential advantage of this model is reducing the need for businesses to maintain prefunded balances in numerous countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Traditional cross-border payments can require companies to hold capital in different markets before transactions take place. Stablecoin-based settlement could potentially allow funding to occur closer to the moment a payment is actually required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">BLOOM Pilot Focuses on Institutional Settlement<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While Nium&#8217;s existing stablecoin services focus partly on business payouts, the Visa BLOOM pilot examines another part of the payment chain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The companies will focus on settlement between Visa and participating financial institutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nium Chief Risk and Compliance Officer Amaresh Mohan said combining established payment networks with programmable digital currencies could create additional settlement options for financial institutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The goal is to build interoperability rather than create a completely separate payment ecosystem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If successful, institutions could potentially use stablecoins for parts of the settlement process while continuing to rely on Visa&#8217;s existing network, compliance infrastructure, and security controls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Visa Has Already Expanded Stablecoin Settlement Across Nine Networks<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Singapore pilot is part of a much broader stablecoin strategy at Visa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The company has already expanded its on-chain settlement infrastructure to nine blockchain networks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Its supported networks include Ethereum, Solana, Avalanche, Stellar, Base, Polygon, Canton, Arc, and Tempo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Visa reported an annualized stablecoin settlement run rate of approximately $7 billion following an expansion announced earlier in 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At that point, settlement activity had increased about 50% from the previous quarter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The company has also been expanding support for different stablecoins rather than relying on a single asset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Supported assets have included the dollar-backed USDC and euro-backed EURC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Visa Is Pursuing a Multi-Coin, Multi-Chain Strategy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Visa CEO Ryan McInerney has described the company&#8217;s stablecoin approach as \u201cmulti-coin, multi-chain.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rather than attempting to determine which blockchain or stablecoin will ultimately dominate the market, Visa is positioning its infrastructure to work across multiple networks and digital currencies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This approach could be particularly important for global payments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Different countries, financial institutions, and applications may prefer different blockchain networks or regulated stablecoins depending on local regulations, liquidity, privacy requirements, and technical capabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Supporting several options gives Visa greater flexibility when integrating blockchain settlement with existing payment systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The BLOOM pilot&#8217;s inclusion of both dollar- and euro-backed stablecoins reflects that broader strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Visa Is Also Exploring Privacy-Focused Blockchain Settlement<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Institutional stablecoin adoption involves challenges beyond transaction speed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Privacy is particularly important because banks and other regulated institutions may not want sensitive payment and settlement information visible on public blockchains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Earlier in 2026, Visa participated in a settlement proof of concept involving Brale and the Canton Network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The project tested Brale&#8217;s U.S. dollar-backed SBC stablecoin and examined whether institutions could settle transactions on-chain while limiting public visibility into sensitive financial information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The goal was to preserve transaction confidentiality while still allowing records to remain available for regulatory, audit, and compliance purposes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Experiments like this illustrate the range of requirements that blockchain settlement must meet before institutions can adopt it at scale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Stablecoins Could Help Reduce Settlement Delays<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the clearest potential advantages of stablecoin settlement is continuous availability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Visa has said that issuing banks participating in some of its existing on-chain programs can already settle with the network seven days a week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The company is also working to extend similar functionality to acquirers, the institutions responsible for receiving funds on behalf of merchants following card transactions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Removing dependence on conventional banking hours could help institutions manage liquidity more efficiently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Instead of waiting until the next banking day to settle certain obligations, participating institutions could potentially move funds during evenings, weekends, and holidays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The actual benefits will depend on how quickly stablecoin settlement can be integrated with banking, treasury, accounting, and regulatory systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Comes Next for the Visa-Nium Stablecoin Pilot?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Visa and Nium have not disclosed when the BLOOM pilot will formally begin processing transactions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They have also not provided expected transaction volumes or identified additional financial institutions that may participate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another unanswered question is which dollar- and euro-backed stablecoins will be selected for the test.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The pilot will ultimately help determine whether stablecoins can provide faster and more flexible settlement while meeting the standards expected from global financial infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For Visa, the project is another step toward connecting blockchain-based money with its existing payment network rather than treating the two systems as competitors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For Singapore, the partnership adds another major institutional test to BLOOM as regulators continue exploring how tokenized money can be used in real-world financial markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If seven-day settlement proves reliable and commercially useful, stablecoins could increasingly operate behind everyday global payments without requiring consumers to interact directly with cryptocurrency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p
