Robinhood Introduces USDC Stablecoin To European Users

According to a recent post on X, Robinhood Crypto EU has incorporated Circle’s USDC into its platform, enabling 24 million registered accounts to access the dollar-backed digital asset. This addition aligns with the trading platform’s strategy of offering users compliant options in the cryptocurrency space.

Circle’s CEO, Jeremy Allaire, acknowledged USDC coming on Robinhood stating that the platform could further boost the use of stablecoins in Europe. Beside USDC, Allaire emphasized on EURC, the euro stablecoin of Circle, as both assets operate within the framework of European regulations.

Circle’s CEO added, 

“EURC is the largest Euro Stable, has grown fast this year, is taking advantage of clear and fair regulations in Europe (alongside USDC!) and is growing TX volume, onchain FX use, and more and more exchanges and wallets launching support.”

Crypto Services Across European Markets

Robinhood continues to broaden its cryptocurrency portfolio, offering support for over 30 digital assets. The platform provides the lowest-cost trading across European markets, further cementing its position as a leading crypto platform. The inclusion of USDC in its offerings demonstrates dedication to providing investors with a diverse range of options.

Recently, the trading platform added Dogwifhat (WIF), a Solana-based meme coin, to its list of supported cryptocurrencies. The listing triggered a surge in WIF price and trading volume, highlighting its influence on market trends within the crypto sector.

In parallel developments, Circle launched USDC stablecoin and Cross-Chain Transfer Protocol (CCTP) on the Aptos blockchain. This integration enables the native issuance of USDC on Aptos, improving its functionality within the network. It also enhances cross-chain interoperability and reduces dependence on bridged versions of the stablecoin.

The CCTP rollout facilitates seamless transfers between Aptos and other blockchains, such as Ethereum, Solana, and Base. The move complements Circle’s USDC strategy, further expanding its usability in decentralized finance.
