Skip to main contentxReserve is an interoperability infrastructure that lets blockchain teams deploy
USDC-backed stablecoins on their own chains. It is powered by programmatic
attestations and Circle-deployed smart contracts that hold USDC in reserve on
source chains such as Ethereum. USDC-backed stablecoins deployed through
xReserve are interoperable with each other and with the broader USDC network.
Key benefits
xReserve offers a range of benefits for blockchains, developers, and end users:
- Day 1 liquidity: Tokens created using xReserve are connected to the
broader USDC network, allowing users to seamlessly move tokens across
blockchains.
- Interoperability: Users can make 1:1 transfers between USDC-backed
stablecoins and USDC.
- Deployed by Circle: xReserve holds USDC in a smart contract deployed by
Circle.
- Minimized trust assumptions: xReserve attesters verify deposits and burns,
reducing reliance on third-party services to convert USDC.
