Find below the answers to the most common questions about the USDC stablecoin. When available, we give you links to in-depth articles for further reading.
The USDC is a stablecoin pegged 1-to-1 to the US dollar. It is centralized, as it is backed by a reserve made of cash, U.S. Treasury Bills and other types of securities. It is currently the second largest stablecoin of the market after the USDT.
Right now, 1 USDC is worth MXN .
Right now, 1 Mexican peso is equal to USDC.
A stablecoin is a type of cryptocurrency designed to have the same value as a given fiat currency, like the US dollar. Its purpose is to let users invest in and out of volatile crypto-assets easily while remaining on chain, to facilitate crypto payments, and to denominate the price of other tokens in currencies that people are familiar with.
The USDC is fully backed by a reserve of highly liquid cash and cash-equivalent assets and is always redeemable 1-for-1 with US dollars. Moreover, it is regulated in the United States and publishes transparent reserve reports, so it's reasonable to say that the USDC is safe. For a more detailed analysis of USDC's safety, read its rating on bluechip.org.
The USDC is officially issued and minted by Circle on several chains, but it also exists on other networks that the company doesn't support. In that case, third party bridge platforms take native USDC from a supported chain, lock it in a vault and issues a USDC token on a target chain. In such case, that bridged version of USDC is usually called USDC.e.
The USDC is designed to follow the price of the US dollar, it is therefore determined by it. Maintaining such peg mechanism is challenging, and it is possible for the USDC to deviate from the US dollar price for various technical or market reasons.
