Why it matters

OKX (X Layer) and Circle launched native USDC and CCTP on X Layer; USDC is now natively supported on 36 blockchains and CCTP is available on 26 blockchains. Day‑1 apps on X Layer: OKX and OKX DEX Bridge.

Key details

  • Targeted use cases include DeFi (USDC as collateral for onchain lending, borrowing, and spot & perps trading with 24/7 settlement), cross‑chain liquidity/treasury via CCTP, AI‑powered agentic payments on X Layer’s x402, and institutional issuance/redemption via Circle Mint; OKX Pay will integrate USDC soon.
Source evidence

Money is moving onchain—and AI agents will be native to this new economy.

Native USDC and CCTP on X Layer provide critical infrastructure for payments, DeFi, institutional settlement, and agentic commerce. OKX Pay will soon integrate USDC, bringing this infrastructure closer to everyday payments.

Great to build the future together with Circle. 🚀
