Great deep-dive from This Week in Fintech on stablecoin-powered cards and why they’re picking up serious traction. Rain was built around the idea that the fastest way to bring stablecoins into the mainstream is by making the infrastructure invisible. Consumers still get the credit card experience they know and love—tap, swipe, done—while behind the scenes, we’re reengineering the financial rails: ✅ Onchain USDC settlement ✅ Tokenized credit card receivables ✅ Multi-chain & stablecoin agnostic support Appreciate the feature.
