2023-09-22: USDC (pronounced U-S-D-C) is now the official name and symbol for Circle's dollar-backed stablecoin. The name “USD Coin” is being phased out.
USDC has introduced new features to enhance transparency and usability, including real-time auditing of its reserves to boost trust among users. The stablecoin is also expanding its integration with decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms to facilitate smoother transactions and liquidity across the crypto ecosystem.
Wonder if people still wants out of USDC. Is there more trust in US banks today? And btw ... is First Republic Bank gonna be the bank of the day ...

Commenting on the closure of Signature Bank, the New York State regulators noted:
It was “in light of market events, monitoring market trends, and collaborating closely with other state and federal regulators” to protect both consumers and the financial system. No losses will be borne by the taxpayer.”
Crisis for UK start-ups after Silicon Valley Bank collapses
Britain’s technology industry has been thrown into an “existential” crisis after the Bank of England seized control of a pivotal lender to the sector.
The central bank is due to place Silicon Valley Bank UK into insolvency on Sunday. It took control of the bank on Friday night after the shock collapse of its US parent. Chancellor Jeremy Hunt was today considering stepping in amid mounting pressure on the Government to support the bank before markets reopen on Monday.
A Treasury spokesman said: “The government recognises that tech sector companies are often not cashflow positive as they grow, and that they rely on cash on deposits to cover their day to day costs.”
In the US, a major cryptocurrency – USD Coin – saw its value drop sharply after its parent company, Circle Internet Financial, said it had $3.3bn (£2.7bn) deposited in the collapsed SVB. The value of USD Coin, which is intended to trade at exactly $1, fell to a low of 87 cents on Saturday morning before recovering.
