The core differences between #加密圆桌讨论 USDC and other mainstream stablecoins (such as USDT, DAI, etc.) are mainly reflected in the following aspects:

1. Issuing Entities and Backing Methods

- USDC: Issued by compliant institutions such as Circle and Coinbase, it claims to be fully backed 1:1 by USD reserves, short-term government bonds, and other assets, and undergoes regular independent audits, providing higher transparency.

​

- USDT (Tether): Issued by Tether, its early backing asset transparency was questionable (some reserve composition has gradually been disclosed in recent years), and it has been accused of "over-issuing."

​

- DAI: A decentralized stablecoin generated based on collateral on the Ethereum chain (such as collateralized ETH and other crypto assets), pegged to the US dollar, with no direct backing from real-world assets.
