DoorDash 正在将稳定币转变为其遍布 40 多个国家/地区的核心劳动力基础设施

DoorDash is working with Stripe-backed Tempo to bring stablecoin-powered payouts into its marketplace. The company operates across more than 40 countries, and the money inside that marketplace moves in several directions at once, with customers paying at checkout, merchants waiting for settlement, and Dashers depending on payouts that determine how quickly earnings become usable cash. This kind of deep involvement is one of the clearest signs we've had that stablecoins are moving deeper into operating infrastructure. The most important question stablecoins are faced with now is whether large platforms now see them as a practical way to move money through the parts of their business where settlement speed, foreign exchange friction, and payout reliability affect workers and merchants every day. Tempo said that DoorDash, Stripe , Coastal Bank, and ARQ will all introduce stablecoin payments. DoorDash co-founder Andy Fang said the appeal lies in making payouts faster and more affordable, which fits the operational problem the company is trying to solve. Delivery marketplaces compress ordering into a few taps for the customer, but the money behind the order still moves through a slower and more fragmented system built around banking cutoffs, regional rails, and settlement delays that can stretch from hours into days depending on jurisdiction and method. That gap is the biggest problem in DoorDash's model because the users who feel payment friction most directly are rarely the ones thinking about crypto. Merchants feel it in working capital, since slower settlement affects payroll, inventory purchases, and short-term liquidity planning. Dashers feel it in immediate cash availability, especially during periods of rising fuel or living costs. DoorDash itself addressed that pressure last month when it announced gas relief measures for US Dashers and a parallel support program for Canadian Dashers. For crypto, that shift in use case matters more than another round of corporat
