A seemingly inconspicuous move actually carries profound significance.
Just today, the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission officially approved USDC as collateral for derivatives trading. Don’t underestimate this approval—remember, the derivatives market sees trillions of dollars in daily trading volume. Now institutional players can directly use USDC to lock in positions, which directly lowers trading costs and significantly boosts efficiency.
This kind of change may be slow, but it’s powerful.
Looking ahead, who knows—maybe someday the New York Stock Exchange will get involved directly, moving stock issuance, trading, and dividends all on-chain... This idea isn’t as far-fetched as it sounds.

Damn, is USDC really about to take off? Once the trillion-dollar derivatives market opens up, what else could possibly stand in the way?

Institutions will save a lot on fees now that the trillion-level derivatives market can be directly collateralized with USDC.

Holy crap, the trillion-dollar derivatives market is starting to use stablecoins as collateral? Now institutions are really about to get involved.
