The Uber carpooling company explores the use of stablecoins to rationalize global payments and reduce transaction costs associated with cross -border transactions.
When it appeared at the Bloomberg Tech Summit in San Francisco on June 5, Uber CEO, Dara Khosrowshahi, confirmed that the company was in the “study phase” of the stablecoins assessment as a potential tool for the international money movement.
Stablecoins offer “a practical advantage other than crypto as a reserve of value”, describing technology as “super interesting” for global companies.
According to Khosrowshahi, while opinions on Bitcoin vary, stablecoins stand out from their usefulness in payments.
“Especially for global companies that move money around the world, Stablecoin is quite promising,” he added.
Stablecoins are digital tokens designed to reflect the value of traditional currencies, most often the US dollar. Anchored by reserves such as short -term or short -term state obligations, they mix the rapid regulations and the nature -free nature of the crypto with Fiat’s confidence and stability.
As digital trade evolves worldwide, stablescoins become essential infrastructure, with an increasing number of companies treating them as tools for financial operations.
As previously indicated by Crypto.News, the “State of Stablecoins” survey of Fireblocks in 2025 revealed that 90% of the financial institutions questioned actively integrated the stabbed into their systems. These include large banks, payment processors and fintech platforms, many of which now treat millions of stabbing transactions each month.
The speed was cited as the first advantage by almost half of the respondents, cost savings and liquidity also ranking on the list of strategic advantages stimulating adoption.
In addition to Uber, other large companies have also shown recently interest. The co-founder of Stripe, John Collison, revealed in May that the company had early discussions with banks on the integration of Stablescoin.
A large part of the momentum behind the stablecoins can be traced for a global change towards clearer and more favorable strategy.
For example, in the United States, legislators have presented the Bipartite Engineering Act, establishing a complete framework for payment floors by describing various requirements for stabbing issuers.
Elsewhere, in Europe, the deployment of Mica has established a new standard for the way in which digital assets are treated, which gives businesses a firmer land on which to rely. At the same time, regulatory developments have also been observed through Asia, in courts such as Hong Kong, Singapore and Pakistan, among others.
