Stablecoin provider Circle and crypto exchange Binance have announced a new partnership aimed at expanding the adoption of the dollar-backed stablecoin USDC and digital asset adoption.
In a joint announcement, the firms said Circle will support Binance by providing critical technology, liquidity, and other tools to maximize the benefits of USDC for Binance users. Both companies aim to forge new relationships with mainstream financial and commercial companies to promote the use of stablecoins.
Collab Will See Support for Stablecoins
This collaboration between the two industry giants aims to accelerate the integration of blockchain-based financial services and support the growing role of stablecoins in the global economy.
As the issuer of USDC, Circle said it has 240 million users, providing a massive platform to scale USDC’s utility. Through this latest alliance, Binance will integrate USDC into its suite of products and services. The exchange will also adopt USDC as a key component of its corporate treasury.
“Binance is an incredibly innovative company and has demonstrated a relentless commitment to product quality, innovation, and user-centricity,” said Jeremy Allaire, Chairman and CEO of Circle. “With Binance rapidly becoming the world’s leading financial super app, this partnership represents a tremendous opportunity for USDC as it becomes ubiquitous on their platform.”
As stablecoins like USDC continue to prove their utility as a bridge between traditional finance and the blockchain ecosystem, the partnership positions both Circle and Binance at the forefront of global innovation.
