$USDC
The company "Circle", the issuer of the USDC currency, rejected an acquisition offer from Ripple ranging between 4 and 5 billion dollars, considering it very low, according to a special report.
📝 The report mentioned that negotiations have completely stopped, and Ripple does not intend to improve the offer.
💥 In contrast, Ripple completed an acquisition deal worth 1.2 billion dollars for the brokerage firm "Hidden Road", which is expected to use its network (XRPLedger) for post-trade settlement, potentially enhancing the role of XRP in the financial infrastructure.
⚖️ Although the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission 🇺🇲 has not issued a final statement, CEO "Brad Garlinghouse" announced in March that the legal dispute with the commission has ended, opening the way for the company to operate with greater freedom.
