More about Monad → XDC
Monad reaches finality quickly, so a standard CCTP transfer is already fast, with no Fast Transfer fee. From Monad to XDC, USDC typically takes about 1 minute as a standard transfer (Circle's average attestation from Monad: ~5 seconds); Circle's Forwarding Service submits the mint on XDC.
On Monad, with your sendstables wallet the fee payment, approval and burn are gas-sponsored, so you don't need any MON for gas — just the USDC you're sending. If you connect your own EVM wallet instead, it pays the MON gas for those transactions. On XDC, Circle's Forwarding Service submits the mint for you, so the recipient doesn't need any XDC for gas on XDC.
CCTP burns and re-mints instead of using a pool, so there's no slippage and no wrapped token. Learn about CCTP.

Native. CCTP burns USDC on Monad and Circle mints the same amount on XDC. No wrapped token, no pool, no slippage.

Not with a sendstables wallet: we sponsor the MON gas. A connected EVM wallet pays its own MON gas. Circle's Forwarding Service handles the mint on XDC.
Can I send USDC from Monad to someone else's XDC address?
Yes. Use the Send tab and paste a 0x… address (any EVM wallet or exchange deposit address that accepts native USDC on XDC). The Swap tab moves USDC between your own wallets.
Is sendstables run by Circle?
No. sendstables is an independent app built on Circle's public CCTP. Circle issues USDC and runs CCTP; we sponsor gas, relay where needed, and charge the fee shown in the quote.
