Circle will convert all of its reserves to US dollars

The issuer of the USDC stablecoin, Circle, has decided to convert its entire reserve into cash.

Circlewill support USDC in cash onlydollars and short-term US Treasury bonds. According to the blog post, this decision was made to ensure full transparency and compliance with all regulatory requirements. 

Last month, Circle released a report onproviding USDC. The US dollar accounted for only 61% of the reserve, which caused a mixed reaction from experts and the community. That could hamper Circle's plans to go public in a $4.5 billion SPAC deal this year. 

The Circle blog posted last week that the company intends to become a federal bank and that USDC will grow in circulation.
