Circle launches cross-chain USDC transfer protocol for Ethereum, Avalanche
Circle, the creator of US Dollar Coin (USDC), has launched a mainnet protocol that lets users transfer USDC between Ethereum and Avalanche, according to an April 26 announcement. Previously, Avalanche users who held USDC on Ethereum had to deposit their coins with a Circle partner or use a third-party bridge to transfer their USDC from one network to the other. The new Cross-Chain Transfer Protocol (CCTP) protocol appears to do away with this need for USDC bridges.

Stablecoins must be programmable to counter CBDCs
When it comes to providing stable value, stablecoins and central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) appear to serve two sides of the same proverbial coin. Crypto stable assets, however, can provide entirely different use cases — and CBDCs simply cannot compete.
