  • Existing USYC token arrangements were retained
  • USYC market cap stands at $2.1 billion

Circle has moved the assets backing its USYC product into longer-dated US Treasury bills, according to Crypto.news. The change adjusts the maturity profile of the Treasury holdings rather than replacing the product’s underlying structure. USDC subscriptions and redemptions will continue, as will the existing token arrangements linked to the fund. Crypto.news reported no change to those access and settlement mechanisms, and no additional outlet coverage was available to independently corroborate the announcement. The live data show USYC at $1.14, unchanged over 24 hours and up 0.07% over seven days, with a reported market capitalization of $2.1 billion. USDC traded at $0.999482, also virtually unchanged over both periods, while DeFiLlama listed its circulating supply at $70.34 billion. The separately reported USDC market capitalization was $70.1 billion. The broader crypto market was flat at a $2.56 trillion total capitalization. Bitcoin gained 0.21% over 24 hours, while the Fear & Greed Index stood at 32, indicating a Fear reading. USYC’s next points of interest are the duration of the Treasury allocation and whether its unchanged USDC operating arrangements continue alongside it.
