Coinbase Introduces New On-Chain Payments Protocol

Coinbase has just introduced new on-chain payments protocol. Check out the latest reports about the matter below.

Coinbase, a leading cryptocurrency exchange platform based in the US, has announced the launch of a new on-chain payments protocol. In a blog post, the company stated that it aims to set a new standard for on-chain payments, making them faster and more affordable for consumers.

Coinbase claims that this open-source update will provide clarity, reliability, and a consistent experience for all users, significantly improving the payment process for merchants and customers alike.

“At Coinbase we believe that on-chain is the new online. Just like the internet broke down barriers, democratized access to information and made knowledge universally available, we believe crypto is doing the same with broader access to financial services and commerce.

A big next step in our vision is to make payments faster, cheaper, and global. Today we are announcing a large update to our Coinbase Commerce product, now built on top of our new open-source On-Chain Payment Protocol, which offers instant settlement, low fees, and broad asset support to improve the payment experience for merchants and their customers.”

Coinbase has recently announced an upgrade that will benefit both merchants and customers alike.

The changes include simplified onboarding for merchants, volatility-free conversions, and the option to accept payments using customers’ preferred wallets and digital assets.

In a recent statement, Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong expressed his belief that crypto firms could become the tech giants of tomorrow, comparing the impact of blockchain technology to that of the internet decades ago.

“On-chain is the new online. The Internet was and is a game-changing technology that redefined our modes of communication, business and social interaction. It broke down barriers, democratized access to information, and made knowledge universally accessible.”
