BitGo Research reports from Money20/20 that stablecoins are augmenting rather than replacing payment rails. Visa moved USDC prefunding for Visa Direct into production, Western Union launched USDPT on Solana, and startups like Rain and Mesh raised large rounds fitting stablecoins into existing card and merchant workflows. Tokenization is expanding into core finance: JPMorgan put JPM Coin on Ethereum, and DTCC ran live tokenized trades with over 30 firms ahead of a full October launch. Agentic payments drew attention but x402 volume was only $1.15 million in September, mostly AI inference, with trust still missing.
