Bringing the asset into Soneium reshapes how users move value across the network, since the stablecoin is positioned as the main unit of exchange. With it, the chain gains a steadier backbone for everyday payments.<\/p>\n<p>The Startale App, which they\u2019ve been positioning as the primary entry point into Soneium, is already set up to handle USDSC with no friction. Inside the app, users can move through a wallet, mini-apps, and a range of on-chain actions without dealing with any technical hurdles.<\/p>\n<p>However, this expansion of the stablecoin ecosystem doesn\u2019t stop with USDSC. Sony Bank is preparing its own version of a US dollar stablecoin for release in 2026. Furthermore, the stablecoin is also expected to tie in with Sony\u2019s entertainment lineup, stretching from PlayStation to a range of other digital services. If it ultimately goes ahead as planned, users may discover a new, easier way to pay across platforms.<\/p>\n<p>Also, a week ago, we <a href=\"https:\/\/www.crypto-news-flash.com\/sony-pushes-web3-adoption-in-asia-with-launch-of-soneium-layer-2-network\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">reported<\/a> that the chain has partnered with IRC APP, Japan\u2019s largest idol and fashion festival app. IRC will use Soneium\u2019s IPFi infrastructure to measure and reward fan activity through an \u201cIRC Score\u201d published in the app.<\/p>\n<p>Looking back, we also <a href=\"https:\/\/www.crypto-news-flash.com\/uniswap-embraces-sonys-soneium-to-power-next-gen-defi-trading\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">reported<\/a> that last May, Uniswap integrated Soneium into its network to simplify cross-chain swaps and bridges.<\/p>\n<p>Last but not least, in March, we <a href=\"https:\/\/www.crypto-news-flash.com\/soneium-and-animoca-launch-anime-id-for-web3-anime-fans\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">highlighted<\/a> that Animoca Brands partnered with the chain to launch Anime ID, a digital identity integrated with anime culture on the blockchain.<\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.crypto-news-flash.com\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>All news is rigorously fact-checked and reviewed by leading blockchain experts and seasoned industry insiders.
