USDC's Market Challenge: Circle's Plan To Revitalize Its Stablecoin As Competition Rises
Portfolio Pulse from Khyathi Dalal
Circle, the issuer of USDC, has launched the Circle Alliance Program to promote the use of its stablecoin and Web3 services globally. Despite a 5% drop in USDC's market cap and a narrowing market share to less than 19%, Circle aims to revitalize USDC amidst stiff competition, especially from Tether. The company is also considering an IPO in 2024. Circle has introduced Circle Mint in Singapore, a zero-fee minting facility, following the acquisition of an MPI license from MAS.
