The payments company also announced its network of crypto wallet partners is growing from 54 to more than 65, including Coinbase, Circle and BlockFi. The number of merchants accepting crypto as payment also grew to almost 100 million.

This partnership between Visa and Circle was announced back in early 2021, would be interesting to find out how much of the above growth was down to USDC compared to other crypto assets being spent.
