Understanding USDC: A Stablecoin Backed by Trust and Compliance
USDC is one of the most widely trusted and highly regulated stablecoins in the crypto industry. Issued by Circle, a U.S.-based, licensed, and regulated financial technology firm, USDC is fully backed by cash and short-term U.S. government bonds, ensuring 100 percent redeemability at a one-to-one ratio with the U.S. Dollar (USD).
Unlike other cryptocurrencies that can experience extreme price fluctuations, USDC offers price stability, making it ideal for payments, remittances, and decentralized finance (DeFi) applications.

How to use USDC in your Quppy stablecoin wallet
Quppy Crypto is a custodial stablecoin wallet: the crypto-service provider holds the USDC for you, and you manage it in the app. Where it is enabled for your account, you can:
- Receive USDC. Open the USDC receive screen, check that Ethereum (ERC-20) is shown, copy the address and send from the other platform on the Ethereum network only. Do not use Solana or TRON for USDC yet.
- Hold it next to your EUR and GBP balances.
- Exchange it for EUR, GBP or other supported crypto-assets where the pair is available. The rate and the amount you will receive are shown before you confirm.
- Send it to a compatible external wallet on Ethereum, after checking the address.
In the EEA these services are provided by Payhound Limited. USDC on Solana is coming soon. USDC tracks the dollar but is not a bank deposit; see what a stablecoin is.
MiCA Regulation: A Game-Changer for Stablecoins in Europe
The Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) Regulation represents a landmark shift in the European Union’s approach to stablecoin governance. Its primary objectives include:
- Protecting consumers and investors from financial risks and fraudulent activities.
- Ensuring financial stability by regulating stablecoin issuance and circulation.
- Standardizing digital asset regulations across all EU member states for a unified market.
Since the end of March 2025, authorised EU providers have stopped offering trading in stablecoins whose issuers are not authorised under MiCA, which is why USDT is no longer offered by most European platforms. Through Quppy, USDT is not available to users in the EEA.
In contrast, USDC is well-positioned to dominate the European stablecoin market, offering users a secure, legally compliant, and globally recognized digital asset for their financial transactions.
