Robinhood Lists USDC, It’s First Stablecoin

This week, however, the platform secured a win on the crypto front by listing it’s first stablecoin, USDC. What We Know The news first came straight from the horses mouth, as Robinhood’s Twitter posted a tweet this morning sharing the news. The token is Robinhood’s 17th supported crypto, and third largest in market cap behind blue chips Bitcoin and Ethereum. It’s the latest token addition since adding Cardano (ADA) at the beginning of the month. It is a growing list of crypto tokens for Robinhood, who also added Polygon in recent weeks.

The narrative has been driven by an ideology that Tether’s account management is less transparent and straightforward than USDCs.
