Global mobility company Uber is considering the introduction of blockchain-based payment methods, including stablecoins.
Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi revealed on June 5th (local time) at the Bloomberg Tech Conference in San Francisco that they are studying the practical advantages of stablecoins in international payments. He explained that while they have not yet confirmed adoption, as a global company, they are carefully examining stablecoins as a means to reduce cross-border payment costs.
In particular, he described BTC as a "proven product" and emphasized that stablecoins can provide practical utility for multinational corporate operations.
Khosrowshahi's statement demonstrates that global big tech companies are expanding their interest in blockchain payment technologies. Using stablecoins can reduce inefficiencies in traditional financial systems such as exchange fees and transfer delays, which is considered advantageous for companies conducting international operations.
Meanwhile, Uber is a global platform handling various daily transactions like mobility and food delivery, and is attracting attention as a representative case studying the practical use potential of digital assets.
