USDC on Hedera: Enterprise-grade digital dollar infrastructure

As goods and services become tokenized, stablecoins bridge fiat and decentralized applications. USDC, issued by Circle, is a fully-reserved digital currency backed by cash, cash equivalents, and short-term US Treasuries. It provides a regulated, transparent way for real-world currencies to interact with smart contracts.

On Hedera, USDC delivers the stability of the US dollar with the network’s speed, scalability, and low cost. This pairing offers enterprise-grade reliability for real-time payments, micropayments, DeFi applications, and cross-border commerce—without the congestion or volatile fees seen on other blockchains.

Powering the future of the tokenized economy

USDC transactions on Hedera settle in under three seconds with predictable fees of $0.001 USD. These economics make micropayments practical, enabling new models for content monetization and pay-per-use services.

USDC on Hedera serves as trusted liquidity for DeFi platforms like SaucerSwap and Bonzo Finance and supports micropayment services such as Dropp. As tokenization expands, USDC enables fractional ownership, automated compliance, and smart contract-driven commerce.
