USD Coin (USDC) is a fully reserved, dollar-pegged stablecoin issued by Circle, available natively on Ethereum, Solana, Avalanche, Base, and a growing number of other chains. Each USDC is backed one-to-one by cash and short-term US Treasury instruments, with monthly attestations published by a major accounting firm. USDC is widely used for payments, DeFi participation, and cross-chain transfers. Because it lives on fully public blockchains, every USDC send is permanently visible on-chain, making privacy just as relevant for stablecoin payments as for any other crypto asset.
