Why buy USDC?

USDC is a stablecoin that is always worth $1.00 US. Managed by CENTRE, USDC was built with support from Coinbase and maintains its value by being backed by dollar denominated assets.

While most cryptocurrency prices fluctuate over time, the stability of USDC presents a number of opportunities for those who buy, hold, and use it. For one, having USDC allows you to send money around the globe without going through a financial intermediary like a bank or money transfer company. This can be done at a low cost and within minutes.

Traders buy USDC to minimize their risk when they are not actively trading. Buying USDC with BTC or ETH, for example, means that the value of their assets will remain the same until they convert their USDC back into another currency.

Beyond that, USDC also has use cases for businesses who want to accept digital payments, DeFi, and gaming.
