What is USDC?

USDC stands for USD Coin. It is a stablecoin that is pegged to the US dollar. This means that the value of the USDC is always equivalent to $1. USDC lives natively on the internet, running on many of the world’s most advanced blockchains. Known as a fully-reserved stablecoin, every digital dollar of USDC on the internet is 100% backed by cash and short-dated U.S. treasuries, so that it’s always redeemable 1:1 for U.S. dollars.

What is EURC? (Coming soon)

EURC, is a euro-backed stablecoin that’s currently accessible globally on Ethereum and Avalanche. Similar to USDC, EURC is issued by Circle under a full-reserve model.

Designed for stability, EURC is 100% backed by euros held in euro-denominated banking accounts so that it’s always redeemable 1:1 for euros.
