#Circle Stock Surges 10% as
$USDC Expands to Sam Altman's World Chain
Circle shares exploded over 10% on Wednesday as
$USDC officially launched on OpenAI CEO Sam Altman's World Chain.
The AI-focused blockchain automatically upgraded all bridged
$USDC tokens to native versions, boosting liquidity across the network.
$CRCL stock soared to $116, trading at nearly four times its $31 IPO price from just one week ago.
Circle's #stablecoin empire now spans 21 blockchains, cementing its dominance as the world's second-largest stablecoin issuer.
The company's $28.34 billion IPO crushed debuts from tech giants Meta, Robinhood, and Airbnb in first-day performance.
World Chain's Cross-Chain Transfer Protocol V2 integration enables seamless
$USDC transfers across supported networks.
The expansion signals aggressive growth for Circle amid surging institutional demand for #blockchain payment solutions.
