Digital assets have officially transcended their “investment vehicle” stature. Stablecoin retail transfers recently set a record, reaching $5.8 billion in August. According to a report by Bitso, stablecoin payments are estimated to surpass $1 trillion by 2030. Earlier this year, Fireblocks released its “state of stablecoins 2025” report, which revealed that 10% of respondents were uncertain about adoption. These are enough reasons why your cryptocurrency exchange software must now function as web3 payment gateways, seamlessly integrated into the POS systems. If your exchange can’t process a coffee payment faster than a blink, you’re not a future-proof digital asset application that can contend as a payment rail.
