Meta opts for stablecoin instead of own coin, pays creators in USDC
Meta has begun settling payments in the stablecoin USDC for some Facebook creators in Colombia and the Philippines. The pilot uses the Solana and Polygon networks to reduce cross-border payment delays and fees. A Meta spokesperson said the company is reviewing stablecoins as part of broader payment options. Meta does not convert USDC to cash, leaving creators to handle exchange and related fees. Meta is working with Stripe to support tax reporting.
