  USDC maintains its value and ensures its backing by USD through a process called collateralization. For every USDC token in circulation, there is an equivalent amount of USD held in reserve. This ensures that each token is fully backed by USD, providing stability and confidence to users. The reserves are regularly audited by reputable third-party firms to ensure transparency and accountability. This system allows USDC to maintain a 1:1 peg with the US dollar, making it a reliable stablecoin in the cryptocurrency market.
