The world's largest regulated digital dollar.
Fully backed, fast, and built for global business. USDC is the most widely-distributed regulated stablecoin, redeemable 1:1 for US dollars.
A dollar built for the internet.
USD Coin (USDC) is a fully-reserved digital dollar issued by Circle. Each USDC is backed 1:1 by highly liquid cash and cash-equivalent assets, and is redeemable 1:1 for US dollars.
Unlike the legacy financial system, USDC moves at the speed of the internet — 24 hours a day, 7 days a week — and settles with finality in seconds. It is the digital dollar trusted by leading exchanges, banks, fintechs, and developers around the world.
