USDC: The regulated stablecoin that connects the dollar with the crypto world

USDC (USD Coin) is one of the most popular and reliable stablecoins in the crypto ecosystem. Its value is pegged 1:1 to the US dollar, meaning that for every USDC in circulation, there is one dollar or an equivalent asset in reserve. It was launched in 2018 by **Circle** in collaboration with **Coinbase**, and is regularly audited to ensure its backing.

Unlike other volatile cryptocurrencies, USDC offers stability, making it a useful tool for payments, remittances, trading, and protection against inflation in unstable markets. It is also widely used in DeFi (decentralized finance), smart contracts, and as a bridge between banks and blockchain.

USDC is compatible with multiple networks such as Ethereum, Solana, Avalanche, Polygon, among others, facilitating its global adoption.
