Join us on 0xResearch with Joao Reginatto, the creator of USDC, as we discuss Circle's CCTP and its multichain vision. Learn how Circle's CCTP enables seamless cross-chain interactions, solving the security and UX issues that have plagued crypto. Joao explains why wallets and applications will integrate with CCTP and how Circle will bring native USDC to Cosmos. CCTP is the most exciting innovation in cross-chain infrastructure!
And as usual, we start the episode with our analyst Hot Seat/Cool Throne segment, where we debate the banking system meltdown, Curve's wild volume, USDC's depeg and more!
