PANews reported on May 21 that according to CoinDesk, Guatemala's largest bank, Banco Industrial, announced the integration of the blockchain payment protocol SukuPay to process cross-border remittances from the United States to Guatemala through the USDC stablecoin. Users only need to enter their phone number in the mobile banking app Zigi to receive funds, and the single transaction fee is fixed at US$0.99. SukuPay is developed based on the Polygon network and will be launched in April 2024. It can complete cross-border transfers without users creating a crypto wallet. This is the first time that a large retail bank in Latin America has deeply integrated a native crypto payment protocol.
