#数字资产市场动态 On Christmas Day, there's an interesting development—Ctrip's international version has started supporting USDT and USDC payments.
This is not an isolated phenomenon. Think about what has happened recently: Alibaba Cloud International accepted TRC-20 form U payments, BYD is promoting stablecoin solutions in overseas markets, Xiaomi and SEI are collaborating to pre-install wallets directly into phones… One after another, major Chinese internet companies are beginning to deploy digital asset application scenarios overseas.
What’s interesting about Ctrip’s move is, as one of the world's largest online travel platforms, what does integrating stablecoin payments mean? Users can directly book flights and hotels using USDT or USDC, eliminating the need for currency exchange. It’s truly convenient for international travelers—especially those who already hold stablecoins in their wallets.
But it’s also worth pondering— from the perspective of payment liquidity, once large-scale stablecoin payment channels are opened, how should the risk control chain be designed? This is a question worth paying attention to.

Haha, big companies are collectively rushing overseas. Ctrip's move is indeed bold.
Risk control really needs to be carefully considered, or it could easily backfire.
I'm optimistic about this trend but also need to observe cautiously.
This is the right way to open up, cutting out the middlemen to earn the difference.
By the way, using stablecoins to buy airline tickets—only when it becomes widespread can it truly be enjoyable.

Stablecoin payments are really about to take off, just worried that risk control can't keep up.

Big companies are quietly laying the groundwork. Once U Pay is opened, risk control becomes a real issue.

The big players are starting to stake their claim, and the pace is a bit fast.
