Binance plans to integrate USDC across its full suite of products and services, ensuring access to USDC for its users for trading, savings, and payments applications. As part of the collaboration, Binance will also adopt USDC as a core stablecoin for its corporate treasury.&nbsp;
On the other hand, Circle is committed to providing the necessary technology, liquidity, and tools to ensure Binance’s users have access to a reliable and secure stablecoin. In addition, Circle will work with Binance to foster relationships with major players in global finance and commerce.&nbsp;
The collaboration is expected to open doors for mainstream companies to explore the growing crypto infrastructure and use stablecoins for a range of financial applications.
<blockquote>
 “Through our strategic partnership, our users will have even more opportunities to use USDC on our platform, including more USDC trading pairs, special promotions on USDC across trading, and other products on Binance," said Richard Teng, CEO of Binance. "We will also work closely with Circle to drive innovation and utility for stablecoins globally."&nbsp;
</blockquote>
This partnership comes at a time when Binance is undergoing a transformation to better comply with global regulatory frameworks. The collaboration with Circle, which is known for its strong ties to U.S. regulators, ensures that Binance can strengthen its position in the stablecoin market while aligning with regulatory requirements.
While revenue-sharing details remain unclear, it’s expected that this partnership will help both companies expand their reach and further cement USDC as a leading stablecoin.
