Asia is doing 63% of all stablecoin payments globally.
Most of the region constantly uses QR codes, mobile wallets, and instant transfers.
Most of the region was already using these payment methods way before stablecoins existed.
So the jump wasn't that big.
Without stablecoins, though, people there would still struggle with:
โ Limited access to USD
โ Expensive payments across borders
โ Uneven traditional banking infrastructure across the continent
If you spend any time in the region, it becomes clear why stablecoins have become a daily necessity there.
