Online broker Robinhood Markets added Circle’s USDC stablecoin to its crypto offerings for retail traders Tuesday.the offering will also be available on Wednesday for transfer on Polygon and Ethereum networks.
“The inclusion of USDC on Robinhood is a clear signal that the platform is setting its sights abroad where the usage of stablecoins is more popular and useful for investors,” Brian Hernandez, president and co-founder of decentralized-finance app“Theoretically, the addition of USDC could allow Robinhood users to send payments for a wide variety of purposes, just as you’d imagine Venmo or PayPal doing so for their users,” he said.
Hernandez added that he sees more utility for global users because the domestic market already contains money transmitters. “Because the U.S. market is saturated with well-established money transmitters, stablecoins are less necessary for the peer-to-peer transaction benefits international users would experience,” he said.in support of other stablecoins.On Tuesday, Johann Kerbrat, Robinhood's chief technology officer,
