According to BlockBeats, on December 17, payment company Stripe announced a partnership with human resources platform Remote. This collaboration allows Remote's clients to directly pay contractors using stablecoins, with the initial implementation utilizing USDC on the Base platform.

The service is initially available to customers in the United States, providing contractors in 69 countries with the option of nearly instant payments or alternative payments in their local currencies. This development marks a significant step in integrating digital currency solutions into traditional payment systems, offering a more flexible and efficient payment method for international contractors.
