FAQ

Why do cross-border Hong Kong businesses use stablecoins for settlement?

Because most of their money moves across borders, where international cards decline more often and bank wires are slow and stepwise through correspondent banks. A dollar-pegged stablecoin moves the same regardless of which side of a border the counterparty is on, which is why the common pattern is to price in HKD or USD and settle in USDT or USDC. halfin covers that without replacing the bank flows you already use for domestic money.
