The State of the USDC Economy Is Strong
summary
USDC reports $16.2 trillion of lifetime on‑chain transactions since 2018, runs natively on 15 chains, and routes roughly 85% of cross‑chain flows over CCTP, which has done about $13 billion of volume so far. Solana activity jumps from ~$600 billion in 2023 to nearly $8 trillion year‑to‑date in 2024 for USDC onchain movement. Reserves sit mostly in cash at GSIBs and ~90% in the Circle Reserve Fund (treasuries and repos), with 24/7 create/redeem in major banking markets.
