Among these, USD Coin (USDC) is often referenced for its role in enabling price-stable transactions while supporting broader blockchain interoperability.

China has updated the operating rules of its Cross-Border Interbank Payment System, formally setting a mixed settlement structure ahead of 2026. Under the revised framework, the system must process single cross-border renminbi payments using real-time gross settlement, while batch transactions must clear through timed net settlement. As a result, payments now follow two clearly separated tracks. Individual transfers settle one by one, immediately and irrevocably, reducing settlement risk between counterparties. At the same time, high-volume batch payments move through scheduled netting cycles, allowing the system to offset obligations and improve liquidity efficiency.
