A well-liked substitute for other cryptocurrencies backed by US Dollars, including Tether (USDT) and TrueUSD, USD Coin was introduced in September 2018. (TUSD).

Coinbase and Circle worked together to co-found the CENTER Consortium, which is essential to the management of USDC and served as the engine for the launch of USD Coin.

Each digital dollar of USDC used is backed by one US Dollar. Cash and short-term US Treasury bonds are used to hold it in reserve. The USDC runs on many of the most cutting-edge blockchains in the world, including Ethereum, TRON, and Solana, with additional chain integrations anticipated. It exists natively on the internet.

Tether and USD Coin are stablecoins tied to the US Dollar on a 1:1 basis; therefore, they are conceptually identical. However, the organizations that issue USDC and USDT are different. The worldwide financial technology company Circle is the issuer of USDC, whereas Tether Limited is the issuer of USDT. As a result, the composition of their USD reserves varies.

Tether is more often utilized for trade and payments than the other stablecoins, which is another key distinction between them. However, due to Circle’s increased focus on assuring safety and legal compliance, many people view USDC as the “safer” stablecoin.
