The integration utilizes the TON blockchain for enhanced efficiency.

This collaboration aims to simplify transactions for millions of citizens.

It aligns with a trend of companies like PayPal incorporating stablecoins for international transactions.

It marks a milestone in bridging digital currencies with daily transactions.

The initiative highlights the Philippines' openness to innovative financial solutions, amidst a changing regulatory landscape.

The Blockchain Technology Development Act is part of the broader initiative supporting this trend.
