Binance Pay opens PayPay merchant payments in Japan with USDT and USDC support
Binance Pay opened cross-border payments at PayPay-supported merchants in Japan for eligible overseas visitors, with USDT and USDC among the supported Binance Pay assets. Binance states that the payer's crypto is automatically converted to JPY, while PayPay states that merchants receive their sales proceeds in JPY through the HIVEX-connected payment flow. SOG records this as payment-adoption and distribution context, not as a change to either stablecoin's backing, redemption, peg, legal status, or lifecycle state.
