Thai Banks Kasikornbank And SCBX Lead Stablecoin Push To Revolutionize Cross-Border Remittances Amid Regulatory Uncertainty

Kasikornbank  (OTC:KPCPY)  and SCBX, two of Thailand’s largest banks, are diving into stablecoin-powered remittance services to enhance cross-border transactions.

Kasikornbank recently partnered with Japan's G.U. Group to explore stablecoin solutions for remittances between the two countries, capitalizing on the high number of Japanese businesses operating in Thailand, reported Nikkei on Wednesday.
