Lawson will pilot JPYC stablecoin POS payment in August

According to Bitcoin.com, Lawson plans to pilot JPYC stablecoin payments at a Tokyo store in early August, which is Japan's first stablecoin payment test directly linked to a POS system. Hashport provides wallet technology support, and stablecoin payment data will be directly integrated into Lawson's existing store management system. Rosen will evaluate the stability of POS integration and decide whether to expand its promotion. JPYC has started to be used in some restaurants and dental clinics, and Japan's three major banks are also piloting stablecoins with the Financial Services Agency. Citigroup predicts that the global stablecoin market will reach $1.9 trillion to $4 trillion by 2030.
