$USDC

The USDC-issuing firm "Circle" declined an offer by Ripple in the range of 4 to 5 billion dollars, considering it too low, a special report says.

👉The report said that negotiations have come to a complete halt, and Ripple does not plan to enhance the offer.

👉 In contrast, Ripple made an acquisition of 1.2 billion dollars to complete an acquisition deal for the brokerage firm "Hidden Road", its network (XRPLedger) of which is expected to utilize in post-trade settlement, strengthening the position of XRP within financial infrastructure.

👉Even though the final word has not been heard from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, CEO "Brad Garlinghouse" confirmed last month in March that the legal battle with the commission is over and the doors are now open for the company to have more autonomy.
