27-8-2025 – Circle has partnered with the XDC Foundation to bring USDC and its Cross-Chain Transfer Protocol (CCTP) V2 to the XDC Network, the company announced today. This collaboration aims to enhance trade finance, real-world asset (RWA) settlements, and decentralized finance (DeFi) applications on the hybrid blockchain.
With this integration, USDC—a leading dollar-pegged stablecoin—will enable faster, low-cost transactions on the XDC Network, particularly for trade finance and cross-border payments. Meanwhile, CCTP V2 will facilitate seamless transfers of USDC across multiple blockchains, improving interoperability for DeFi protocols and institutional finance.
The XDC Network, designed for global trade and tokenization use cases, offers sub-two-second transaction speeds and near-zero fees, making it an ideal fit for Circle’s expanding infrastructure. This move follows Circle’s recent integrations with networks like Solana and Arbitrum, signalling its commitment to multi-chain adoption.
