Worldpay to start verifying blockchain transactions

Payment company Worldpay is in talks with various blockchains to become a validator and verify blockchain transactions for the first time. By participating directly in blockchains, Worldpay aims to gain a better understanding of how funds flow through digital ledgers. In 2024, the company processed stablecoin transactions worth $1.3 billion, a small portion compared to its annual transaction value of $2.3 trillion. Validators play a crucial role in maintaining the integrity of digital ledgers by staking and receiving fees for verifying transactions. Worldpay will be joining notable validators such as Coinbase, Metamask, Helius, and Galaxy Digital. Worldpay has previously partnered with other firms for crypto-related initiatives.
