Latest Cryptocurrency Market News – Zebec Network launched a $100,000 ZBCN reward program for XRP holders on Uphold, aiming to incentivize stablecoin adoption within its real-time payment ecosystem. Despite a 13.6% ZBCN price dip to $0.0055 by July 9, 2025, the initiative reflects Zebec’s strategy to bridge XRP’s community with its USDC-based payment streaming platform. The program offers ZBCN tokens to users trading or holding XRP, encouraging engagement with Zebec’s payroll and remittance services.
Zebec’s platform, serving over 1 million users, uses USDC for instant, low-cost transactions, reducing costs to $0.50-$1 compared to traditional remittances.
The reward program leverages Uphold’s trading infrastructure, where XRP-USDC pairs are popular, to drive adoption among crypto enthusiasts. “This initiative connects two vibrant communities,” said Zebec’s founder, Sam Thapaliya, citing XRP’s role in cross-border payments and USDC’s stability.
The program aligns with Zebec’s discussions with Ripple, hinting at deeper integration of XRP and RLUSD. However, the recent ZBCN dip reflects market volatility and concerns over reward dilution. Regulatory risks, including the U.S.’s GENIUS Act, also loom, though Zebec’s compliance efforts mitigate some concerns.
With stablecoin transactions surging, Zebec’s reward program could boost USDC adoption, but its success depends on sustained user engagement and market recovery. ZBCN’s future hinges on balancing incentives with long-term utility in the competitive stablecoin landscape.
