$BTC In a historic milestone, USDC, the regulated stablecoin backed 1:1 by U.S. dollars, continues to revolutionize the financial market. Today, Coinbase Derivatives and Nodal Clear announced plans to integrate USDC as collateral in regulated futures in the U.S., a breakthrough that could be approved in 2026 and would mark the first time a stablecoin is used this way in derivatives.
🔹 Why USDC?
- Total transparency: Reserves audited monthly by leading firms.
- Efficiency: Instant transactions and minimal costs, ideal for global payments 24/7.
- Mass adoption: With a market of $61.5 billion, it is the second largest stablecoin.
💡 Additionally, Circle (issuer of USDC) is listed on NYSE (CRCL) with explosive growth of 168% in its debut, reflecting institutional confidence.
