▤ Summary

Bybit and Western Union launched USDPT access through Bybit’s fiat channels, making Bybit the first major crypto exchange in Western Union’s USDPT network. The integration lets eligible users in selected Latin American markets buy and sell the stablecoin with local currencies. The launch aims to reduce settlement time from days to minutes and lower transfer costs by removing friction between crypto and fiat rails. It also expands Western Union’s digital asset strategy and creates a new 24/7 settlement path alongside legacy payment networks.
