$USDC USDC (USD Coin) is gaining traction with major updates. On June 12, Circle expanded USDC to the XRP Ledger, making transactions faster and more accessible across 22 blockchains. Just days later, the U.S. Senate passed the GENIUS Act, the first federal stablecoin regulation, requiring full backing, regular disclosures, and oversight—boosting confidence in assets like USDC. Following this, Circle's valuation soared as investors responded positively to regulatory clarity. These developments position USDC as a leading stablecoin in both innovation and compliance, offering users security, speed, and increasing adoption in traditional and decentralized financial systems.
