- Injection adds native $USDC Circle’s CCTP enables direct stablecoin transfers between supported blockchains without the use of wrapped tokens.
- $USDC With close to $80 billion in circulation, Injective traders and developers have access to dollar-backed assets for settlement, collateral, and liquidity.
Injective is preparing to add native $USDC Introducing Circle’s Cross-Chain Transfer Protocol (CCTP) to its network, expanding blockchain services for transactions, payments, and decentralized finance. of integration I allow it $USDC Migrate to Injective as a native asset rather than a wrapped version. It also provides users with a direct way to transfer stablecoins between the network and other supported blockchains.
$USDC is one of the largest dollar-backed stablecoins, with a market capitalization approaching $80 billion. The network has seen rapid growth in usage for payments, trading, and treasury activities, processing trillions of dollars in on-chain transaction volume in 2025.
$USDC and CCTP, sponsored by @circle, is officially coming to Injective.
The world’s largest regulated stablecoin. Secure cross-chain transfers. All natively integrated into the fastest blockchain built for finance.

In case of injection, $USDC Enhances the tokenization of spot and derivative products and assets by eliminating dependence on bridge tokens and enhancing the flow of capital between applications.
In the CCTP protocol, $USDC Move between blockchains through a burn-and-mint process. Instead of locking the token within the bridge and issuing a wrapped version elsewhere, CCTP deletes the original token on one chain and creates the same amount on the destination chain. This reduces risks associated with wrapped assets and third-party bridge systems.
Earlier this month, CNF reported Injective introduced an AI-powered CLI skill that allows developers to query on-chain data, submit transactions, and manage keys directly from their terminal. The tool standardizes wallet setup, network selection, and local client configuration across mainnet and testnet, enabling a more consistent on-chain workflow.
native $USDC Enable cross-chain access to Injective
Injective also plans to apply the MultiVM token standard to: $USDC. This framework allows one canonical token to work in both Wasm and EVM environments on the same network. As a result, developers using Solidity and developers building with Wasm have access to the same thing. $USDC Ensure liquidity without fragmenting balances between different versions of tokens.
the company has already created $USDC Being available on testnet gives developers time to build and test their products before mainnet support begins. This includes payment tools, lending services, trading systems, and cross-chain transfer capabilities associated with CCTP.
The move is the latest in a long line of stablecoin consolidation as these fiat-backed tokens find new uses beyond cryptocurrency trading, as payment giants such as Visa, Mastercard and Stripe launch stablecoin-based services.
Previously, we covered Aon’s stablecoin premium payments pilot works with Coinbase and Paxos using PYUSD on Solana; $USDC on Ethereum. This test marked the first time a major global broker has used stablecoins to settle insurance premiums.
CNF in February reported Polygon promoted instant VAT refund $USDC For international travelers at Italian airports during the 2026 Winter Olympics. The service has been launched at refund points in Milan, Rome and Venice.
