Hold onto your shopping bags, darling! Singapore’s beloved retail giant, Metro, is shaking things up by letting customers pay with stablecoins—yes, you heard that right! 💸❤️ Whether you’re perusing the aisles in person or lounging in bed while browsing Metro Mall online, you can now indulge in some crypto shopping spree.
In a glorious twist of modernity, Metro has teamed up with crypto payments whiz, DTCPAY. That’s right, folks! You can now whip out those fancy digital tokens like Tether’s USDT, Circle’s USDC, and the grandioso Worldwide Stablecoin Payment Network’s WUSD to settle your purchases. 🛒✨
But wait! There’s more! Soon, they’ll also roll out the red carpet for the First Digital Dollar Stablecoin (FDUSD). Because apparently, we weren’t confused enough already. 🤑
In a statement that sounds straight out of a sci-fi movie, Metro’s COO, Erwin Wuysang-Oei, declared this partnership a dazzling leap into the future. He cheerfully announced, “We’re not just embracing the future; we’re busy shaping it!” Erwin, my dear, with moves like this, who needs a crystal ball? 🔮
And just when we thought it couldn’t get more riveting, we find out that DTCPAY has decided to ditch the likes of Bitcoin (oh, how quirky!) and Ethereum (so last year!) to focus exclusively on stablecoins in 2025. Their grand reasoning? To provide a “more reliable, scalable, and secure payment experience.” Sounds like someone is on a mission! 💪
Meanwhile, Singaporeans are becoming the coolest crypto kids on the block. Digital assets are weaving themselves into the fabric of everyday life, and following the recent U.S. elections (thanks, Trump!), wealth managers are reallocating portfolios like it’s nobody’s business. Talk about investment strategy with a side of chaos! 🥳📈
As if that wasn’t enough, Singapore has outpaced others—including Hong Kong—in the crypto marathon. 2024 saw the Monetary Authority of Singapore issue 13 new crypto licenses, doubling from the previous year. Meanwhile, Hong Kong is still fumbling in the dusty corners of strict regulations. Guess someone forgot to tell them that time waits for no one! ⏰✨
