What is USDC?
USD Coin (USDC) is a digital dollar backed by highly liquid cash and cash-equivalent assets and is redeemable 1:1 for US dollars. The goal is simple: to provide a reliable digital currency that avoids the price swings you often see with other cryptocurrencies.
USDC was launched in 2018 by the Centre Consortium, a partnership between Circle and Coinbase. Circle’s founders, Jeremy Allaire and Sean Neville, had a clear vision — to create a more open and accessible financial system using blockchain technology.
When it first launched, USDC was built on Ethereum as an ERC-20 token. Over time, it expanded to other blockchains like Solana and Algorand, giving users more flexibility across different networks.
The main appeal of USDC is its stability. Unlike many cryptocurrencies, which can be highly volatile, USDC is designed for consistency. It’s widely used for payments, trading, and decentralized finance (DeFi) applications where stability is key.
Circle publishes regular reports showing the reserves backing USDC. After the Centre Consortium dissolved in 2023, Circle took full control of USDC operations and continued to manage its supply by minting or burning tokens as needed. Circle manages USDC with a strong focus on transparency and compliance.
