Circle stock jumps on Polymarket deal as USDC shifts to “native” on Polygon

Circle stock jumps on Polymarket deal as USDC shifts to “native” on Polygon

Shares of Circle Internet Group surged almost 14% in the latest session. Investors reacted to news of a fresh partnership set to integrate its USDC stablecoin more tightly within the infrastructure of an on-chain prediction market. This shift is significant. Stablecoins—crypto tokens meant to keep a fixed value, typically tied to the U.S. dollar—are now more commonly serving as settlement currency for trades and payments. That lands Circle’s flagship product right at the center of growing transaction flows, just as regulators ramp up their scrutiny of both crypto and prediction markets.
