Market capitalization of USD Coin (USDC), a stablecoin issued by regulated financial institutions, exceeded $1,000,000,000, co-founded by Circle and Coinbase organization the Centre Consortium has announced.

USDC has become the 18th digital asset on the market with capitalization over $1 billion.

The Centre Consortium claims the financial crisis caused by COVID-19 at a macro level triggered high demand for digital dollars.
