More from the sourceFact

“At the same time, Bitso has listed USDPT and USAT, the US dollar stablecoins of Western Union and Tether, both issued and custodied by Anchorage Digital Bank.”

“Today, 15% of this volume already flows through Bitso's infrastructure, while much of the rest still travels over correspondent banking, wire transfers, and cash pickup networks that are slow, costly, and hard to trace.”
