$USDC in 2025: Stability, Scaling, and Breakthrough in DeFi

In 2025, USDC from Circle demonstrates impressive growth, strengthening its position as one of the most reliable stablecoins in the world. Over the past year, transaction volume exceeded $20 trillion, and the annual growth of the circulating supply reached 78%.

Circle is actively expanding the presence of USDC across various blockchains. In particular, 2.5 billion USDC have been issued on Solana, with plans to reach 9.75 billion by the end of the year. USDC has also become available on the Aptos, Arbitrum, and Sui networks, providing fast and cheap transactions for DeFi users.

A key factor in the success of USDC is compliance with regulatory requirements. In 2024, the coin became fully compliant with the European MiCA regulation and Canadian listing standards. This enhances trust from institutional investors and financial platforms.

Additionally, Circle has filed for an IPO on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker “CRCL,” indicating the company's ambitions to integrate into the traditional financial system.
