“Stablecoins are quickly becoming the way money moves in the 21st century, but adoption by users worldwide requires cards and apps that just work,” Farooq Malik, the firm’s CEO and co-founder, said in a statement. He added that in the last year, the firm’s active card base had increased thirtyfold and that the company’s annualized payment volume has increased by 38 times. Rain provides companies with the infrastructure to issue stablecoin-linked debit cards so that the digital tokens can be “instantly usable anywhere Visa is accepted.”
