The post USDC Is Now Live on XRP Ledger — Big Step for Faster Crypto Payments appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
Circle, the company behind USDC, has just announced that its popular stablecoin is now live on the XRP Ledger (XRPL). This means people can now use USDC on XRPL directly, without needing to bridge it from another blockchain.
So, what does this mean, and why should you care?
No More Bridging — Just Fast, Easy Access
With USDC now working natively on the XRPL mainnet, users don’t need to go through complicated bridging processes anymore. That means faster access, lower risk, and a much smoother experience for anyone using USDC on the XRP Ledger.
Circle, the company behind USDC, confirmed that both Circle Mint and Circle APIs now fully support USDC on XRPL. This makes it much easier for developers and businesses to tap into USDC liquidity and take advantage of XRPL’s fast and secure infrastructure.
How This Changes the Game
This launch opens the door for all kinds of real-world use cases:
Global Payments: Businesses can now use USDC to send money across borders quickly and more efficiently.
DeFi Liquidity: Market makers can use USDC to bring liquidity to token pairs and currency exchanges on XRPL.
Fintech Apps: Wallets, custodians, and financial platforms can now integrate USDC directly on XRPL, offering faster and more transparent settlements.
Bigger Ecosystem for USDC
This move also marks an important milestone for USDC’s expansion. With XRPL added to the list, USDC is now available on 22 different blockchains. That’s a big step toward making stable digital dollars more accessible and useful around the world.
USDC on XRPL brings together two powerful forces, the stability of a trusted digital dollar and the speed of XRP Ledger.
Whether you’re building apps, sending money, or just exploring crypto, this is a step toward a faster, more open financial future.
