🪙 Circle Goes Public: What Does This Mean for the Stablecoin Market, and Should You Hold USDC or USDT Now? A historic moment for the crypto market: USDC issuer Circle is going public with a $6.7 billion valuation, planning to list on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker CRCL. This is the first time a major stablecoin issuer is going public in the US through a classic IPO process, not through a SPAC or offshore schemes. Why does this matter? Circle is betting on transparency, regular audits, and full compliance with regulatory requirements. With stricter rules coming into force in Europe (the MiCA regulation is already active) and the US, USDC is becoming almost the only stablecoin officially welcomed by regulators and institutional investors. Coinbase is actively promoting USDC as a “proper” stablecoin for people who have a Compliance Officer, not just a Telegram chat.

At the same time, USDT (Tether) remains the most popular stablecoin in terms of volume and liquidity, but its transparency and reserve structure are often questioned. In Europe, its use is already being restricted, and such limitations may only increase in the future. Where should you keep your stablecoins — USDC or USDT? USDC offers transparency, regular audits, compliance with US and EU laws, and support from major financial institutions. USDT provides maximum liquidity and is a familiar tool for trading, but it comes with less transparency and growing regulatory risks. Conclusion: If you value stability, transparency, and long-term reliability, USDC is increasingly looking like the better choice, especially as the market and regulators demand more accountability. For active trading and quick swaps on most exchanges, USDT remains a convenient tool, but the risks are increasing year by year.
