Samsung Wallet stablecoin accounts have launched for eligible Galaxy users in the US, starting with USDC.

About 82 million compatible devices; Bastion provides the account and transfer infrastructure, while Coinbase uses Prime Vault for segregated custody of USDC. Users can buy, hold, send, and receive; they can also transfer funds to eligible bank accounts in 60+ countries (funds arrive in local currency; fees vary by destination). Must be 18 or older and use Android 13+. New York residents are excluded. On-chain reports point to Solana.
