Western Union has launched its USDPT stablecoin on the Solana blockchain, marking a significant move for the 175-year-old payments company. Announced on May 4, the stablecoin is issued by Anchorage Digital Bank and aims to replace SWIFT for agent settlements, reducing processing times from days to seconds. This development aligns with Solana's growing institutional adoption, as evidenced by $381 million in ecosystem inflows over the past three months. Solana's price currently stands at $84.20, with a 0.89% increase on the day. The network's fundamentals are bolstered by Western Union's entry, alongside other major players like PayPal and Fiserv choosing Solana for its speed. Meanwhile, the Pepeto project has raised $9.81 million and is gaining attention for its presale pricing and upcoming PepetoSwap launch, offering 175% APY staking and cross-chain bridging capabilities.
