Visa Widens Stablecoin Payouts via Zerohash Rails
Visa is widening its stablecoin payout capabilities through Zerohash rails, positioning the crypto infrastructure firm as the backend enabler for moving and settling stablecoin payouts across Visa Direct. The expansion concerns payouts specifically, not an abstract stablecoin strategy, with Zerohash presented as the rails layer that handles the underlying settlement. Zerohash described its role in powering stablecoin payout and prefunding capabilities for Visa Direct, framing the arrangement as infrastructure support rather than a consumer-facing product.
