USDC quantum migration spans 37 chains beyond Circle

USDC quantum migration requires 37 host networks, wallets, custodians and bridges to coordinate beyond Circle’s own post-quantum upgrades.

  • Circle's USDC is undergoing a quantum migration across 37 blockchain networks, requiring coordination beyond Circle's own infrastructure.
  • Recent advancements in quantum computing, indicated by an 813-logical-qubit record, highlight the urgency for all participants (wallets, custodians, bridges, users) to upgrade their cryptography.
  • While Circle can secure its own systems, the overall quantum safety of USDC depends on the slowest adopter, creating significant dependency and uncertainty in the migration process.
