TechFlow News: On March 12, Bitget Wallet announced a strategic partnership with Stellar, the decentralized payment network, and integrated the Stellar mainnet to accelerate the everyday adoption of stablecoins in cross-border and consumer use cases.
This collaboration will be rolled out in phases. Currently, Bitget Wallet has integrated the Stellar mainnet into its QR-code-based payments, bank transfers, and deposit/withdrawal products. Users can now make USDC payments and settlements via the Stellar network and hold, swap, and perform cross-chain transfers of Stellar-native assets—including XLM, USDC, and PYUSD—directly within the Bitget Wallet app. Bitget Wallet will also introduce an automated XLM distribution tool to enhance user onboarding efficiency and lower the barrier to first-time usage.
Stellar is a blockchain network purpose-built for fast, low-cost cross-border payments and transfers. Several USD-compliant stablecoins are issued on Stellar. To date, Stellar has partnered with major payment players including Stripe, MoneyGram, U.S. Bank, Société Générale, Franklin Templeton, WisdomTree, PwC, Circle, and PayPal, and is actively involved in discussions surrounding U.S. stablecoin policy.
