Circle and Binance partnership

-

Circle and Binance are teaming up to expand the reach of stablecoins globally, and they’re making some big moves to shake things up in the crypto world.

This partnership was announced during Abu Dhabi Finance Week.

Making USDC more accessible

Binance plans to make Circle’s USD Coin more available on its platform, and a spokesperson for Binance shared that users can look forward to more trading pairs involving USDC, special promotions, and other products that will enhance their trading experience.

They believe stablecoins like USDC have important roles in the financial ecosystem, think of them as tools to hedge against inflation in developing countries or as cost-effective ways to send money across borders.

Binance will be adopting USDC into its corporate treasury, which is a quite big deal, and Circle will support this partnership by providing liquidity and tech solutions while helping Binance build valuable connections in global finance.

Circle’s expanding footprint

At Abu Dhabi Finance Week, Circle also announced that it has set up an entity in the Abu Dhabi Global Market and secured another partnership, teamed up with LuLu Financial Holdings to facilitate remittances and cross-border payments using USDC.

LuLu Financial is no small player, they manage over $10 billion in transactions every year across the Gulf Cooperation Council countries, the Indian subcontinent, and the Asia-Pacific region.

Future

In a bit of exciting news for Circle, they plan to move their headquarters to New York in early 2025 and are eyeing an initial public offering, an IPO once they get the green light from the U.S. SEC. They filed for this IPO back in January 2024.

While in Abu Dhabi on December 9, Binance CEO Richard Teng was asked about establishing Binance’s headquarters, and he acknowledged that it’s a rather complicated process but assured everyone that they’re working hard on it.
