Issued by Circle and governed by the Centre Consortium, USDC is widely used in the crypto ecosystem for trading, payments, and DeFi activities. Its high liquidity makes it easy to convert into other cryptocurrencies or fiat currencies on major exchanges. Because it’s backed by cash and short-term U.S. government securities, USDC maintains price stability and user trust. It offers fast, low-cost transfers across blockchain networks like Ethereum, Solana, and others. USDC’s transparency, regular audits, and regulatory compliance make it a popular choice among institutions and traders.
