Rain and Visa Partner to Accelerate Onchain Credit Cards

Showcasing blockchain’s potential to enable everyday financial transactions
NEW YORK, May 1, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Rain, a global card issuing platform built for stablecoins, is helping usher in a new era of onchain finance through its work with Visa.
Today, Rain announced it has joined Visa’s pilot program for stablecoin settlement. Rain has fully tokenized its credit card receivables and has transitioned all settlement transactions for its Visa cards to USDC, to now be able to settle with Visa 7 days a week, 365 days a year.
Rain provides backend infrastructure – APIs, compliance layers and settlement logic – that enables fintechs and wallets to build and launch stablecoin-linked card programs. As demand for real time, global payments grow, Rain is seeing strong momentum from partners looking to issue and use onchain cards and settle in stablecoins.
7 Day Stablecoin Settlement
Rain’s proprietary settlement stack brings all authorization logic and settlement onchain. Rain’s technology stack allows for card transactions on the Visa network to be interoperable with stablecoins across multiple blockchains. When a user makes a payment with a Rain-issued Visa card, Visa settles with the merchant acquirer as usual. Rain is programmatically leveraging stablecoins enabling network settlement 7 days a week, 365 days a year.
Tokenized Credit Card Receivables
Rain’s platform has also fully tokenized its credit card receivables, enabling more efficient capital management and transparency across the system. These capabilities help fintechs go to market faster with new products. While giving consumers access to digital-first globally interoperable payment experiences.
Rain is also proud to announce a world first: closed loop credit card receivable financing utilizing stablecoins. Rain works with a network of capital partners – borrowing stablecoins to facilitate network settlement for credit card receivables. By borrowing from and programmatically repaying lenders Rain has been able to reduce the total cost of capital for consumer and b2b credit programs while providing lenders access to superior collateral and programmatic repayments powered by smart contracts. This powerful construct has the potential to unlock credit access for users in underdeveloped financial markets, all while unlocking significant operational and capital efficiencies for Rain and Rain powered programs.
“By participating in Visa’s USDC settlement program, we are now able to conduct settlement 7 days a week, 365 days a year, operating outside of traditional banking hours. USDC settlement allows us to be more capital efficient – helping to reduce the need for collateral while providing our counterparties the same level of protection. This sets a new standard for issuers and further enhances digital asset utility,” said Farooq Malik, CEO & Co-founder of Rain.
“Moving money across borders has always been complex, but blockchain technology and stablecoins are helping change that,” said Rubail Birwadker, Head of Growth Products and Partnerships, Visa. “Our work with Rain to help bring payments onchain and enable seven-day settlement is a big step toward helping to simplify global payments.”
This is just the beginning. Rain continues to explore new ways to enhance the utility of stablecoins, such as its asset-agnostic settlement stack and blockchain permissioning, which together enable credit to exist entirely onchain. Rain is paving the way for a more efficient, transparent, and accessible financial ecosystem that reduces working capital, reduces fraud, and drives improvements in operational outcomes.

Blocks & Headlines: Today in Blockchain – April 30, 2025

Today’s blockchain ecosystem is defined by soaring ambitions, regulatory crosswinds, and an ever-evolving tapestry of decentralized applications. In this edition of Blocks & Headlines: Today in Blockchain – April 30, 2025, we cover five pivotal developments shaping Web3’s next chapter:
-
Telegram’s TON Factory Launch – A breakthrough in on-chain scalability.
-
EU Data-Protection Ruling Threatens Full Blockchain Histories – The fight between GDPR and immutability.
-
One Championship MMA Game Debuts on Sui – A major Web3 foray into mobile gaming.
-
U.S. Senate Eyes New Blockchain Act – Bipartisan push to regulate digital assets.
-
DMG Blockchain’s AI Data-Center Investment – Convergence of crypto mining and AI infrastructure.
Below, we deliver concise yet detailed analyses of each story, infused with expert commentary on their strategic significance. Read on to understand how these trends will influence protocol adoption, developer incentives, regulatory frameworks, and the future of decentralized networks.
1. Telegram’s TON Factory Boosts On-Chain Scalability
What happened:
Telegram’s Open Network (TON) team officially unveiled TON Factory, a novel toolkit designed to streamline the deployment and scaling of decentralized applications. Built atop TON’s sharded architecture, TON Factory enables developers to spin up isolated “factories”—subnets that can host smart contracts, NFTs, and DeFi modules—while sharing security guarantees with the main chain. According to the announcement, early tests show that each factory can process up to 15,000 transactions per second (TPS) in isolation, with near-instant finality.
Why it matters:
Scalability remains blockchain’s Achilles’ heel. TON Factory’s factory-of-subnets approach promises to lower the barrier to entry for high-throughput dApps—everything from micro-payment systems to real-time gaming. By offering elastic compute and fee-optimization mechanisms, Telegram aims to undercut legacy Layer-1 networks and attract a new generation of builders.
Opinion & Implications:
-
Developer Experience: Abstractions like preconfigured factories could accelerate time-to-market for teams lacking deep consensus expertise.
-
Network Effects: If TON’s UX outpaces rivals (e.g., Ethereum’s zk-rollups or Solana’s Turbine), we may see a migration of liquidity and talent.
-
Security Trade-Offs: Isolating factories can mitigate cross-dApp failures, but adds complexity to transaction routing and dispute resolution. Audits will be essential to validate this novel model.

2. EU Regulators Propose Deleting Entire Blockchains for GDPR
What happened:
European data-protection authorities have floated a radical interpretation of GDPR: the “right to erasure” could extend to purging entire on-chain histories containing personal data. Under this view, controllers operating within the EU must either anonymize linked data or entirely delete chain segments—potentially forcing chains to implement selective pruning or permissions.
Why it matters:
Blockchain’s immutability ethos directly clashes with GDPR’s erasure mandate. If regulators enforce selective deletion, networks may need to retrofit privacy-preserving layers (e.g., zero-knowledge proofs, chameleon hashes) or risk noncompliance fines up to 4% of global turnover.
Opinion & Implications:
-
Protocol Evolution: Expect a surge in privacy-by-design protocols that segregate PII off-chain while anchoring proofs on-chain.
-
Jurisdictional Fragmentation: Projects may geo-fence EU users or spawn EU-compliant forks—fracturing unified global ledgers.
-
Commercial Impact: Exchanges and custodians face urgent deadlines to audit on-chain data holdings and deploy erasure tools—or face hefty penalties.

3. One Championship’s MMA Game Launches on Sui for iOS/Android
What happened:
One Championship, Asia’s premier martial-arts league, has partnered with Mysten Labs to release “ONE Fight Manager”—a play-to-earn mobile title powered by the Sui blockchain. Available now on iOS and Android, the game lets users train NFT fighters, compete in PvP leagues, and earn SUI tokens through ranked matches. Mysten Labs touts sub-two-second transaction finality and near-zero gas fees, enabling seamless gameplay even for on-chain microtransactions.
Why it matters:
Gaming remains the killer app for mass blockchain adoption. By leveraging Sui’s Move VM and object-centric model, ONE Fight Manager addresses two critical pain points: UX friction and cost barriers. Real-time, feeless interactions are vital to onboard traditional gamers accustomed to instant feedback loops.
Opinion & Implications:
-
User Acquisition: High-profile IP like One Championship can drive millions of installs—and funnel new users into the broader Sui ecosystem.
-
Economics & Tokenomics: Careful tuning of token emission and NFT scarcity will determine whether the game sustains long-term engagement or succumbs to “play-to-earn” collapse.
-
Cross-Chain Synergy: Success here may inspire similar partnerships on Aptos, Ethereum, or emerging Layer-1s, intensifying competition for flagship gaming titles.

4. Ohio Senator Leads Push for U.S. Blockchain Act
What happened:
Senator J.D. Kerns (R-OH) has introduced the Blockchain Innovation and Consumer Protection Act, aiming to create a federal framework for digital-asset oversight. Key provisions include:
-
Defined Classifications: Differentiating between payment tokens, security tokens, and utility tokens.
-
Licensing Regime: Establishing a “Digital Asset Services Commission” to grant interstate licenses for exchanges and custodians.
-
Consumer Safeguards: Mandatory proof of reserves, clear disclosure requirements, and dispute-resolution protocols.
Why it matters:
After years of fragmented state laws and agency turf wars, this Act represents Congress’s first cohesive effort to legislate blockchain. By preempting state-level divergence, it could streamline compliance for businesses—provided it balances innovation with investor protection.
Opinion & Implications:
-
Regulatory Clarity: Clear definitions can foster institutional entry, reducing legal ambiguity that stifles corporate treasuries from adopting crypto.
-
Unintended Consequences: Overly stringent licensing could entrench incumbents and erect high barriers for startups.
-
Global Competitiveness: U.S. leadership in blockchain law may influence other jurisdictions—critical as Asia and Europe race to craft their own regulatory regimes.

5. DMG Blockchain Solutions Invests in 2MW of AI Data-Center Gear
What happened:
DMG Blockchain Solutions Inc. has announced the acquisition of two megawatts of high-density GPU infrastructure, repurposed for both crypto-mining and AI-model training workloads. Housed in a new Quebec data center, the multi-use clusters will dynamically allocate capacity between proof-of-work operations and commercial AI clients—leveraging off-peak pricing to optimize ROI.
Why it matters:
The convergence of crypto-mining and AI training infrastructure underscores growing synergies between two of the most compute-hungry industries. By offering GPUs for rent during mining downtimes, DMG anticipates 30% higher utilization rates compared to mono-purpose facilities.
Opinion & Implications:
-
Revenue Diversification: Dual-use data centers can hedge against crypto price swings and tap into booming AI-as-a-service demand.
-
Energy Efficiency: High-efficiency GPUs paired with Quebec’s hydroelectric power may set new benchmarks for sustainable compute.
-
Competitive Landscape: Other mining operators may follow suit, catalyzing a wave of AI-crypto hybrid hosting providers.
