Twitter and digital payments processor Stripe Inc. will pilot cryptocurrency payments for select users of the social media site's content monetization products, Reuters reported.

Eligible users of Twitter's Ticketed Spaces and Super Follows programs will be able to receive their earnings from the company in USD coin, a stablecoin whose value is pegged to the US Dollar.

Users who receive crypto payments can hold their earnings in crypto wallets on the Polygon network, a crypto infrastructure firm on the Ethereum blockchain, and can then exchange them into other currencies.

On the regulatory side Reuters reported that the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) in the United States has said it plans to start cease and desist proceedings against Anchorage Digital Bank National Association for failing to adopt programs to meet recordkeeping rules and prevent money laundering.

The South Dakota-based crypto bank failed to adopt a compliance program that meets their requirements on Bank Secrecy Act and anti-money laundering rules, the OCC said in a statement.
