Understanding the USDC.e Transition
To comply with Circle protocol requirements and maintain Bitlayer ecosystem stability, Bitlayer is implementing these changes:
- Existing USDC tokens will be rebranded as USDC.e
- USDC.e will no longer be supported on Bitlayer chain
- All users must exchange their USDC.e for standard USDC
