    USDC is powered by the Ethereum blockchain. Ethereum is a decentralized, open-source blockchain platform that enables the creation and execution of smart contracts. USDC tokens are ERC-20 tokens, which means they follow the technical standards set by Ethereum. This allows for easy integration and interoperability with other Ethereum-based applications and platforms.

    USDC is backed by a consortium called Centre, which is a collaboration between Coinbase and Circle. Centre is responsible for the governance and development of USDC. While USDC is primarily built on the Ethereum blockchain, Centre has plans to support other blockchains in the future to provide more options and flexibility for users.
