Circle and Polymarket have formed a strategic collaboration, with Polymarket adopting native USDC as a primary payment asset for its prediction markets. The move is aimed at expanding USDC usage across on-chain forecast platforms and enhancing liquidity in the sector.
Analysts note that the GENIUS Act framework could steer digital dollar reserves more directly into U.S. Treasuries, positioning Circle as a key beneficiary of these regulatory-driven shifts. As regulatory clarity grows, Circle’s role as a major driver of USDC adoption in prediction markets could strengthen, potentially expanding USDC’s footprint in both crypto and traditional finance.
If digital dollar reserves are channeled into Treasuries under the GENIUS Act, Circle’s ecosystem may see heightened demand for USDC as the preferred settlement medium in digital markets. This development underscores how policy movements and strategic partnerships may shape the future of digital currencies in both regulatory and market contexts, particularly within prediction markets where stablecoins play a central role.
