USDC allows great ideas to become great businesses
Elisabeth Carpenter shares her insights on USDC's transformative foundation built for scale, transparency, and security.
While the internet has moved the world forward at revolutionary speed, the global economy has had trouble keeping pace — until now.
Just as open societies enable anyone with drive and ambition to build something new, open money empowers anyone with a great idea to build a great business. This belief is at the heart of Circle’s mission, leading us to create USDC, the digital dollar that moves as quickly and freely as the internet.
Every week, we issue and redeem billions of dollars in USDC, providing businesses with the flexibility to move funds both on- and off-chain around the world. This collective leap forward requires a foundation of trust and transparency, established by daily publishing of global reserves that reflect USDC’s one-to-one backing with US treasuries and dollars. USDC is now one of the most transparent stablecoins ever.
USDC serves as a bridge between the established financial systems of today and the decentralized technologies of the future. It’s an open platform designed to make money work for anyone, everywhere. So no matter where your customers are, you can seamlessly sell in markets globally and open doors to opportunities that were once out of reach.
Whatever your idea, USDC is built with the speed and security to power it on-chain, raising the question: In a world without borders, how far can you go? Our Chief Operating Officer Elisabeth Carpenter makes the case that the answer is limitless with USDC.
