Sony is reportedly preparing to launch a USD-backed stablecoin to power payments across PlayStation, Sony Music and Sony Pictures 🎮 💵

🔥 The move follows Sony Bank’s blockchain trials, the acquisition of a Japanese crypto exchange, and multiple #NFT -focused patents - signaling deeper Web3 ambitions.

Why it’s a big deal:

🌍 Faster, cheaper, borderless payments across Sony platforms

⚡ Smoother in-game purchases and faster settlements on PlayStation

🎧 Global subscriptions without FX friction for music & video apps

🐒 Clearer digital ownership for future NFT-based items

With companies like PayPal already launching USD stablecoins, Sony’s vast reach across gaming + entertainment gives it a rare chance to integrate digital payments at scale.

😉 If the stablecoin goes live, it could unify Sony’s entire ecosystem - and push entertainment giants toward the next era of digital economies.
