#Circle

1 message1 participant0 message aujourd’hui

#FinancialTimes did a deep dive on the business model of the world's second largest #stablecoin: Circle's #USDC. It's the one that's managed by an American company and is significantly less connected to Chinese organized #crime than the other #stablecoins.

Circle, which has a very deep business relationship with #Coinbase, is trying to go public this year or next. This is their second attempt - they filed to go public ca. 2021 but ended up not doing so because... no one wanted to buy shares in a company like Circle.

I suffered through reading Circle's original SEC filing in 2021 and it made clear that a) Circle wasn't making any money and b) executive compensation was *absurdly* high... but that was in a low interest rate environment. according to #FTAV they can't even make the math work in today's high interest rate world, which surprised me.
