Visa has rolled out USDC settlements for its U.S. banking partners, enabling payments via Circle’s stablecoin on the Solana ($SOL) network. Banks like Cross River and Lead Bank are already using it to manage liquidity with 7-day settlement access. Visa calls this a long-term strategy, not a pilot, with USDC flows now at a $3.5B annualized pace. The move comes as Circle receives conditional OCC approval to launch a national digital currency bank, boosting trust in USDC.
