Ride-Hailing Company Uber is investigating the use of stablecoins to streamline global payments and reduce transaction costs in connection with cross-border transactions.
During his performance at the Bloomberg Tech Summit in San Francisco on June 5, Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi confirmed The company is in the “study phase” of evaluating stablecoins as a potential tool for international money movement.
Stablecoins offer ‘a different practical benefit than crypto as a store for value’, in which the technology is described as ‘super interesting’ for global companies.
According to Khosrowshahi, opinions about Bitcoin, stablecoins vary for their usefulness in payments.
“Especially for global companies that move money worldwide, Stablecoin is promising,” he added.
Stablecoins are digital tokens designed to reflect the value of traditional currency, usually the US dollar. Anchored by reserves such as cash or short -term tires, they combine the rapid control and grenzo nature of crypto with the confidence and stability of Fiat.
As worldwide digital trade scales, Stablecoins become essential infrastructure, with an increasing number of companies that they treat as aids for financial activities.
As reported earlier by crypto.news, 2025 “State of Stablecoins” survey from Fireblocks showed that 90% of the financial institutions investigated actively integrated Stablecoins into their systems. These include large banks, payment processors and fintech platforms, many of which are now millions of stablecoin transactions processing every month.
Speed was mentioned by almost half of the respondents as the highest advantage, with cost savings and liquidity that also stimulated high on the list of strategic benefits.
In addition to Uber, other large companies have recently shown interest. Co-founder of Stripe John Collison revealed in May that the company has discussions with banks in early discussions about the integration of the Stablecoin.
Much of the momentum behind Stablecoins can be traced to a global shift to clearer, more supporting policy frameworks.
In the US, for example, legislators introduced the Bipartisan Genius ACT, with an extensive framework for payment stablecoins by sketching various requirements for Stablecoin expenditure.
Elsewhere, in Europe, the rollout of Mica has set a new standard for how digital assets are being treated, making companies more firmer to build. At the same time, regulatory developments have also been observed in Asia, in jurisdictions such as Hong Kong, Singapore and Pakistan, among other things.
