Ant Group and Circle in Talks to Integrate USDC Stablecoin on Ant Blockchain

Ant Group, the fintech giant founded by Jack Ma, is in early discussions with Circle Internet Financial to bring the USDC stablecoin to its blockchain network. This development highlights increasing regulatory alignment and the strategic importance of stablecoins in cross-border finance.

Circle, which went public in June 2025, continues to expand USDC's utility through partnerships and infrastructure upgrades. The company has confirmed plans to launch a dedicated payments network for institutional cross-border settlements using its stablecoin.

If Ant International adopts USDC, enterprise clients WOULD gain access to dollar-pegged assets for real-time settlements and treasury management. This integration could significantly boost Ant's blockchain services as stablecoins become more widely adopted in global trade and digital finance.
