These are a few of the improvements that the USDC issuer introduced to ease developer’s stress. Over a month ago, <a href="https://coingape.com/circle-launches-web3-services-on-solana-with-focus-on-developers/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Circle</a> announced the expansion of its Web3 services on Solana to help developers achieve new goals. This expansion enhanced the concept of Programmable Wallets and Gas Solution. 
Circle explained that the <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.circle.com/blog/empowering-the-solana-ecosystem-circles-web3-services-is-now-available-on-solana" target="_blank">Web3 service</a> will help developers with little experience in creating multi-chain wallets in applications. 
Similarly, Circle integrated Chainlink into its system to expand the capabilities of its USDC and EURC stablecoins. Circle hoped that the combination of its financial services with <a href="https://coingape.com/chainlink-defies-broader-market-correction-link-price-eyes-20-breakout/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Chainlink decentralized services</a> will provide developers with the necessary tools to create comprehensive financial applications. 
Precisely, Circle’s Programmable Wallets and Chainlink services which include Data Feeds and Proof of Reserve will teach developers how to include stablecoins in their applications.

On the other hand, Circle’s rival <a href="https://coingape.com/tether-and-bitfinex-dragged-in-amended-class-action-lawsuit/">Tether</a> is facing regulatory opposition in different regions across the world. A few weeks ago, Tether and cryptocurrency exchange Bitfinex got caught up in an amended class action lawsuit submitted to the United States District Court Southern District of New York. There are suspicions of association with market manipulation and violation of antitrust laws. 
The plaintiffs in the filing includes includes Benjamin Leibowitz, Jason Leibowitz, Aaron Leibowitz, and Pinchas Goldshtein. Collectively, they accused Tether and its sister crypto firm of executing a “sophisticated scheme to fraudulently inflate the price of crypto commodities, a class of crypto-assets that includes bitcoin.” 
Tether’s regulatory strain may, however, improve soon especially after the firm hired Philip Gradwell as Head of Economics. It is expected that this addition bolster <a href="https://coingape.com/chainlink-defies-broader-market-correction-link-price-eyes-20-breakout/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Tether regulatory strategy</a> and enhance transparency in its operations.
