Web3 payments usher in a major breakthrough again. According to reports, a leading mainstream Web3 wallet solution is in deep collaboration with a globally leading POS solution provider, planning to integrate QR code payment solutions into 40 million retail terminals worldwide. From retail giants like Walmart and Costco to convenience stores and supermarkets around the globe, these terminals will support the new payment experience.

What does this mean? In simple terms, Web3 users will soon be able to complete payments directly with digital assets during daily shopping. No longer limited to operations within exchanges and wallet apps, payment scenarios will expand from online to offline brick-and-mortar retail. This is a significant step in the transformation of cryptocurrencies from a financial asset to a payment tool, and it also reflects the accelerating trend of mainstream retail and Web3 ecosystem integration. Compared to the global layout of traditional payment networks, this collaboration opens the way for digital wallets to achieve large-scale commercial use in a truly meaningful sense.

40 million devices? If that really materializes, it’s quite impressive. --- Wait, can this really be used for grocery shopping? Or is it just another hype concept? --- If Walmart is on board, it feels a bit closer to reality. --- Honestly, I just want to know how the fees are charged. Is it cheaper than Alipay? --- Another "about to change the world" thing. Let’s just watch for now. --- If this happens, I’ll have to change my mom’s shopping habits. Never mind. --- Finally, I don’t have to just play on exchanges anymore. It’s kind of interesting.

It's finally coming, I said it would happen sooner or later. Wait, can 40 million devices really synchronize? Alright, this time it's really going to change the payment landscape. But will Walmart and others really push it? Seems like we're just waiting and watching. This is what Web3 should be doing—changing payments instead of just trading cryptocurrencies.

Wow, 40 million devices? If that really becomes a reality, we're not far from using crypto to buy groceries in our daily lives.

The consultation records show that the clinical presentation of this project is still not clear enough. 40 million terminals sounds impressive, but which wallet solutions and POS providers are involved? It's all a fog. Acceleration of integration is just a statement; risk warning should also be in place. What about the actual payment conversion rate data? How is the liquidity indicator? Or is it another marketing story that outweighs the actual?
