Visa Crypto Unit Launches Stablecoin Analytics Dashboard

Highlights

Visa is launching its stablecoin analytics platform
The payments firm wants to harmonize stablecoin data and insights
The move came as a partnership with Allium Labs

The stablecoin ecosystem is receiving lots of attention this season and this has moved the crypto arm of popular financial service provider Visa to launch a platform dubbed Visa Onchain Analytics Dashboard.

Visa Joins The Stablecoin Transparency Push

Cuy Sheffield, Head of Crypto at Visa explained on X that the firm decided to pursue its stablecoin analytics dashboard after viewing a line chart created by Nic Carter, a popular crypto enthusiast.

Visa’s new platform was a collaborative effort between the debit card manufacturer and blockchain outfit Allium Labs.

The Visa executive described the new platform as “an adjusted transaction volume methodology that combines a single directional volume filter that removes redundant internal transactions of a smart contract with an inorganic user filter that only counts volume from addresses that have made < 1k transactions and < $10M in volume over last 30 days to attempt to remove bot activity.”

This dashboard is designed to help users monitor the activities of stablecoins at their convenience.

Users will gain access to key metrics including stablecoin supply, transaction volume, and monthly active users. In the meantime, information is available for United States dollar-pegged stablecoins like USDC, USDT, PYUSD, and USDP across five Layer-1 blockchains and four Layer-2 where the stablecoins are issued.

Visa To Tackle Crucial Stablecoin Challenge

According to Sheffield, Visa has identified some common challenges with stablecoin, particularly the problem of “lots of noise” with its data. He highlighted that this challenge is a consequence of using digital currency across a range of use cases with transactions that can be initiated manually by an end user or programmatically through bots.

As an effort to proffer solutions to these shortcomings, developers target the introduction of automated programs that can perform activities like arbitrage, liquidity provision, and market making. All these are crucial for sustaining the Decentralized Finance (DeFi) ecosystem but at the same time, they do not portray settlement in a traditional sense.

This discovery prompted Visa’s alliance with Allium Labs. It is believed that this tool will provide users with a more accurate estimate of stablecoin settlement volume amongst other functionalities. Visa plans to improve on the analytics dashboard in the near future with much consideration given to users’ feedback.

Meanwhile, more firms are moving into the stablecoin ecosystem. Crypto payments company Ripple Labs unveiled its plan to launch a stablecoin that would be pegged to the USD.

Even BRICS, the popular bloc that is trying to break the hegemony of the dollar is also currently considering launching its stablecoin.
