Circle has confirmed that USDC is the inaugural stablecoin to align with the recently introduced digital asset regulations in Canada. These regulations, set to take effect on December 31, will phase out non-compliant stablecoins from the market.

USDC will maintain its 1:1 value with the US dollar and remain available on crypto trading platforms in Canada, thanks to Circle’s adherence to the new regulations. The firm assures that USDC can be safely utilized within Canada’s digital landscape.

• USDC is the first stablecoin compliant with Canadian regulations, ensuring its continued operation in Canada.
• Circle’s proactive compliance strategies bolster its presence in regions with stringent regulations.
• MiCA regulations will require stablecoin issuers in the EU to maintain adequate liquid reserves.
