PANews February 3 News, according to Fortune magazine, the well-known Silicon Valley startup incubator Y Combinator announced that it will allow founders of its Spring 2026 batch startups to choose to receive funding in the form of stablecoin USDC, typically around $500,000. Nemil Dalal, a partner in Y Combinator’s crypto division, stated that founders who opt for stablecoins can receive tokens on multiple blockchains such as Ethereum and Solana, with potential future expansion to other stablecoins based on demand. He pointed out that stablecoins are one of the key areas where the organization hopes to see more entrepreneurial ideas, and they also want to personally explore this direction.
Dalal said that Y Combinator expects more startups to begin raising funds on-chain in the future. He believes that although the current crypto market sentiment is subdued, enthusiasm for stablecoins continues to grow, regardless of fluctuations in crypto asset prices.
