    THEMES
    Payments
    Circle's Payments API has re-imagined processing payments to accept global payments across traditional and blockchain rails in one powerful integration. Open up new markets and drive down costs to your business with payments infrastructure powered by USDC.
    DeFi
    Decentralized finance (DeFi) is an emerging financial technology based on secure distributed ledgers similar to those used by cryptocurrencies. USDC is the most popular dollar digital asset to access the Web3 world. Our APIs provide easy access to USDC for your DeFi applications.
    Trusted Blockchain Apps
    Throughout Web3 history, the absence of a robust, open-source standard for sharing and verifying online identity has created many challenges for developers and end-users alike. Circle is a launch partner and key contributor to Web3 identity service Verite, which presents an open, shared, interoperable architecture for identity and trust in the global crypto financial ecosystem. With Verite, credentials can be issued and used to prove identity claims for an unbounded number of use cases, including KYC verification, accredited investor status, social reputation, NFT provenance tracking and more- without the need for participants to disclose personal data.
    All Things USDC
    Web3 is a place that embraces innovation, we would love to see your imagination go beyond the above areas. Any ideas that expand the current use cases of USDC is welcomed. (eg. Gaming, NFT & DAOs, etc)
