How your money is secured
  • Non-custodial. Funds stay in your own wallet: an embedded wallet secured by Privy, or the wallet you connect. We never hold your keys.
  • Fees fixed at confirm. The price is signed when you confirm; nothing extra is taken later.
  • Native USDC. Circle's CCTP burns USDC on one chain and mints it on the other. No bridges, no wrapped tokens.
  • Every step on-chain. You get explorer links for each transaction and a shareable status page.
