Samsung adds Solana-based USDC transfers to Wallet for US Galaxy users

Eligible users will be able to send stablecoins to overseas crypto wallets or arrange local-currency payouts to bank accounts starting in late October. Bank payouts will cover more than 60 countries, according to CoinDesk. The feature sits within Samsung Wallet rather than a separate crypto app, with fiat conversion options, according to The Block.

• Reports put the potential US Galaxy audience at 82 million.
• Decrypt says Samsung teased stablecoin support three months earlier without naming a blockchain.
