Cross-Chain Transfer Protocol V2 (CCTP V2) product
Overview
Circle has launched Cross-Chain Transfer Protocol V2 (CCTP V2), an on-chain system that facilitates the movement of USDC between different blockchains. The protocol works by destroying USDC tokens on the originating chain and creating the same quantity on the target chain, without requiring permission. This approach, which falls under the category of cross-chain bridges or interoperability protocols, aims to offer better capital efficiency and security compared to older wrapped-asset bridges.
