Visa has added Monad as an option in its stablecoin settlement network, allowing participating issuing banks and acquirers to settle stablecoins directly on Monad. The news was confirmed by the Monad Foundation.
This is not an ordinary ecosystem partnership. Visa’s settlement network connects banks, card networks, and merchants. Inclusion means the selected blockchain can directly handle compliant fund flows and on-chain settlement demand—representing verifiable adoption for Monad, rather than just a conceptual narrative. Stablecoin settlement is currently the most clearly established entry point for on-chain cash flows. Being selected by a payments giant amounts to an endorsement of its access to institutional capital.
However, being added as an option does not mean an immediate surge in volume. What will really determine the valuation is the number of issuing banks that join, actual settlement volume, and Monad’s stablecoin issuance and compliance pathways. If there is a listing but no fund flows, the sentiment premium will fade. The token involved is MON; sentiment is bullish. Source: The Block.
Do you put more weight on being included in the network, or on the actual settlement volume that follows?
