Binance, currently the world’s third largest cryptocurrency exchange by bitcoin trading volume, is adding support for Circle's recently launched stablecoin, USD Coin (USDC), this weekend.
Binance announced Thursday that it will open trading pairs for the regulated, U.S. dollar-pegged token against its own token Binance coin (BNB) and bitcoin (BTC) on Nov. 17, adding that it has already started accepting deposits for USDC in preparation for the start of trading.
Crypto finance firm Circle also confirmed the news with CoinDesk on Thursday.
