$USDC

USDC (USD Coin) is a fully-backed, fiat-pegged stablecoin issued by Circle and governed by Centre Consortium. It maintains a 1:1 peg with the U.S. dollar, providing a reliable store of value and medium of exchange in the crypto ecosystem. USDC is commonly used in DeFi, trading, remittances, and as a bridge between traditional finance and blockchain networks. Its transparency is ensured through regular third-party audits of reserves. Unlike volatile cryptocurrencies, USDC offers stability, making it a preferred option for risk-averse users and institutions. Its growing role in Web3 and digital payments strengthens its relevance in the evolving financial landscape.
