# Circle Declares Local USDC Enhancement Connecting Arrangement for Linea
Circle, the supplier of the world’s second biggest stablecoin, USDC, is intending to dispatch the underlying consistent enhancement to local USDC on the Linea Layer-2 blockchain.
As per a Walk 5 declaration from Circle, this zero-information-fueled Ethereum (ETH) Layer-2 will be the primary blockchain to observe a USDC redesign, progressing from an connected rendition to a local one.
Since Circle presented the connected dollar standard in November 2023, this stablecoin has turned into one of the most connected resources in the crypto environment.
Ordinarily, new blockchains convey an connected form of the $56 billion stablecoin in their testnet or mainnet conditions. Circle has recently added local help for different EVM blockchains, rollups, and other L2 stages.
In any case, Linea will be the principal blockchain network to consistently overhaul its connected USDC (USDC.e) to a locally gave one. This sending guarantees full saves and 1:1 redeemability for USD.
> “We’re making history with Circle as the first blockchain to upgrade from bridged to native USDC with zero disruption. Same contract address, no liquidity fragmentation, just faster, safer transactions—this is what building seamless blockchain infrastructure looks like,” Linea posted on X.
The redesign will stop bridging for USDC.e on Walk 16, 2025. Nonetheless, USDC.e will in any case be accessible for on-chain exercises, for example, exchanging, spending, and trading.
As Circle reported in its blog entry about dispatching local USDC on Linea, support likewise implies admittance to the stablecoin guarantor’s cross-chain move convention.
After the introduction of local USDC on Linea, Circle intends to incorporate CCTP V2 compatibility, linking it to Ethereum, Avalanche, and Base to simplify cross-chain movements. Since its mainnet introduction in July of last year, Linea, launched by Consensys, has seen considerable expansion. The network features more than 400 decentralized applications and a transaction volume of over $250 million. Important expansion sectors include decentralized finance, non-fungible tokens, gaming, and digital identity. This Layer 2 solution is the leader in zkEVM in terms of total locked value, which is now more than $190 million, according to DeFiLlama statistics.
