Summary:
Stripe Billing adds stablecoin payment support
Why It Matters:

What Changed:

- Launched new "Agentic commerce" and "AI companies" use case categories.
- Introduced a "Revenue Suite" concept that combines billing, tax, and reporting in one place.
- Added specific features for "Flat rate + overage" and "Tiered pricing" models.
- Updated the dashboard to include a secure, prebuilt customer portal for self-service subscription management.
- Highlighted a new "Usage-based billing" section for metered events.
