USDC on X Layer#
The difference between USDC and USDC.e#
USDC#
Circle brings USDC natively to new blockchain networks to empower developers to build on a stable foundation they can trust. Native USDC is officially issued by Circle. Native USDC is now available on the other Layer 2.
| Asset | X Layer mainnet address |
|---|---|
| USDC | 0x74b7f16337b8972027f6196a17a631ac6de26d22 |
USDC.e#
There also exists a “bridged” form of USDC known as USDC.e, which is USDC that has been bridged from Ethereum. Bridged USDC (USDC.e) is not issued by Circle.

Using USDC on X Layer#
Note
Whether you are a developer or a user, we recommend that you use USDC on X Layer.
For users#
Users can get USDC on the X Layer mainnet in these ways:
- Using X Layer official bridge
When you bridge USDC from Ethereum to the X Layer by official bridge user interface, you can automatically receive USDC on the X Layer.
- Using OKX exchange
OKX now supports USDC (not USDC.e) deposits and withdrawals.
- Using third-party bridges
Some well known bridges are integrating with X Layers.
For developers#
Please refer to the USDC workflow section.
