$USDC

USDC is one of the most reliable stablecoins in the crypto space, backed by fiat reserves and fully audited. I often use it as a safe harbor during volatile markets or to earn yield via DeFi platforms. Its strong partnerships with Coinbase and Circle add credibility. USDC pairs also provide good liquidity and low slippage, especially on major exchanges like Binance. As regulations tighten around stablecoins, USDC continues to maintain transparency. I always keep a portion of my funds in USDC to protect capital and prepare for new entry points. Stability matters when the market is uncertain.
