What is Usd Coin?
USDC is a digital stablecoin pegged to the value of the US dollar. To maintain its fiat-peg, the cryptocurrency is backed by fully reserved USD assets with an exchange rate of 1:1.
One USDC should be equal to one real US dollar.
Launched in 2018, the stablecoin was created by Circle, a crypto finance company owned by Centre, with accompanying support from Coinbase. The token was originally built on the Ethereum blockchain, and as such was developed as an ERC20 token. However, it has now expanded to the Solana and Algorand blockchains. The parent company, Centre, is regulated by the Money Services Business and FinCEN in the US, with regular auditing taking place.
USDC can be traded and exchanged like any other cryptocurrency. Instead of cryptocurrency investors transferring funds back into fiat currency, Circle states that USDC allows users to transfer assets to a stablecoin that offers a 1:1 relationship with the US dollar. Stablecoins aim to be a calmer entry and exit platform to the sometimes volatile world of cryptocurrencies.
