Chelsea scoring in the @USDC kit on the first match it hits the pitch.
this is how a digital dollar gets in front of the world.
500 million @ChelseaFC fans just watched a stablecoin score.
and in 17 days that same USDC is native gas on @Arc.
the shirt moment is loud. the chain moment will be louder.

CLARITY is emerging - digital tokens and blockchain protocols, read/write/own, stablecoin utility, open infra that the whole financial industry can build own.
We are thrilled with the progress of the Senate Banking Committee towards enacting this critical law that will help transform the global financial system.

We’ve come a long way since the days of 30 minute bridge times that often took 10-15+ different clicks.
This is a great product built by a world class team.
Introducing the USDC Bridge.
A direct way to move USDC crosschain.
Built and operated by Circle, USDC Bridge gives you a predictable, transparent way to move USDC between chains:
→ Native burn-and-mint transfers
→ Clear fees upfront, with live status and progress
→ No route selection. No bridge complexity.
→ Destination gas handled automatically
Move USDC. That’s it.

Building onchain just got way easier with App Kit
Now you can:
> send tokens
> swap assets
> bridge USDC
All through one SDK.
App Kit also works with viem, ethers, Solana, and Circle Wallets.
No more stitching together separate integrations.
Build your onchain flows with App Kit today ↓
App Kits is now available.
App Kits is a suite of SDKs for core onchain flows like bridging, swapping, and token transfers.
→ Bridge: crosschain @USDC transfers
→ Swap: token swaps without managing third-party integrations or liquidity integrations
→ Send: token transfers between wallets on the same chain
App Kits also includes built-in monetization, so developers can configure revenue sharing directly in transaction flows without deploying custom contracts.

Building the internet financial system means making onchain development as seamless as any modern software stack.
Today we launched App Kits: unified SDKs to help teams ship production-ready stablecoin apps faster.
We’re reducing the friction of fragmented infrastructure, helping devs integrate core onchain flows in under 10 lines of code:
→ Bridge: USDC movement via CCTP
→ Swap: Seamless token exchange
→ Monetize: Built-in revenue configurations

@USDC on @StellarOrg unlocks access to all of this 👇
If you are building on Steller, I’d like to learn about them.

You can't have the economy of the future, without the money of the future. A great example of @USDC powering Ai and machine-to-machine payments with @openmind_agi.
Circle 🤝 @openmind_agi
This is just the beginning of autonomous AI transactions onchain.
Watch Bits, OpenMind’s robot dog, use @USDC and our new agentic commerce solution to complete real machine-to-machine nanopayments to recharge itself.

Historic moment: stablecoins coming back to the mothership of Bitcoin!
Stablecoins started on Bitcoin with Omni layer & Tether in 2014 (no longer supported). Now, Circle and Stacks bring a tier-1 stablecoin on the leading Bitcoin L2.
Circle's xReserve offering allows blockchains, protocols, apps and services to launch custom stablecoins backed by USDC, and compatible with Circle interoperability protocols for seamless cross-chain liquidity.
Our 3rd such launch in as many weeks.
Great to see this launch on one of Bitcoin's leading L2s @Stacks
Congrats!

Any good resources for learning deeper on Taproot, Op codes, etc? I've been having chatGPT teach me through quizzes and real-life scenarios and it's working thus far.
