The Bridged USDC Standard allows for a bridged form of USDC to be used on Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM)-compatible blockchains. This makes it easier for developers building on Layer-2 blockchains, like Soneium, to integrate digital dollar payments into their apps.

Jun Watanabe, Chairman of Sony Block Solutions Labs, said:

By integrating Circle's financial infrastructure with Soneium, we are set to redefine the landscape of digital entertainment and finance.

Launched in August 2024, Soneium is a Layer-2 blockchain based on the Ethereum network. It was developed by Sony Block Solutions Labs, a joint effort between Sony Group Corporation and Startale Labs.

USDC currently ranks as the second-largest stablecoin in the world, with a market capitalization of over $35 billion. This partnership with Sony aims to further increase its adoption and cement its role in the growing Web3 ecosystem.

In other news, Donald Trump is about to launch a new platform, called World Liberty Financial, to push mass adoption of stablecoins and DeFi.
