$USDC
USDC (USD Coin) is a regulated stablecoin pegged 1:1 to the US dollar. It is issued by Circle and governed by Centre, a consortium that includes major financial partners. Unlike many crypto assets, USDC is designed for stability, transparency, and trust. Each USDC token is backed by a real dollar or equivalent reserve, which is audited monthly by third parties.
USDC plays a crucial role in DeFi, centralized exchanges, and cross-border payments. Traders use it to move funds quickly without exposure to volatility. With Circle aiming for an IPO (, confidence in USDC may grow further.
As a stable, secure asset, $USDC is becoming the digital dollar of the internet.
