Circle issues USDC, a widely used stablecoin that enables fast and secure digital payments.
Founded in 2013, Circle is a financial technology company behind USDC, a stablecoin pegged 1:1 to the U.S. dollar. USDC operates across multiple blockchains and is used for payments, trading, and DeFi applications.
USDC provides a stable, transparent, and widely accepted digital currency, making cross-border payments and blockchain transactions faster and more efficient without the volatility of traditional cryptocurrencies.
