$USDC A multi-billion dollar deal threatens the throne of stablecoins
The blockchain giant Ripple made a massive offer of $4-5 billion to acquire Circle, the issuer of the USDC stablecoin, but the surprise was Circle's outright rejection, considering the offer "below its true value"
What does Circle's rejection of Ripple's historic offer mean for crypto investors?
1. The USDC coin (second globally after USDT) is the backbone of trading in the market, while Ripple recently launched its stablecoin RLUSD.
2. Ripple openly announces its intention to acquire infrastructure companies in the field (as CEO Brad Garlinghouse stated).
3. Circle was valued at $9 billion in 2022 and is now preparing for its public offering (IPO).
Thus:
- The rejection does not mean the end of the road, as Ripple is still interested in the deal according to sources.
- The fierce battle for the dominance of stablecoins indicates radical shifts in the Web 3.0 economy.
