Circle has announced the launch of its stablecoin USDC and the Cross-Chain Transfer Protocol (CCTP) on the Aptos blockchain, marking a significant advancement for Web3 applications. This integration is bolstered by a partnership with Stripe, allowing businesses to seamlessly convert fiat currency into USDC and vice versa, thus enhancing the speed and efficiency of global payments. The introduction of USDC on Aptos is expected to improve the blockchain's scalability and attract more users to its ecosystem. Additionally, native USDT has also been introduced on Aptos, with its supply reportedly increasing by 250% over the past week, further solidifying the platform's role in the decentralized finance (DeFi) space.
