Circle has received approval from the U.S. Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) to establish Circle National Trust, a federally regulated national trust bank. This approval strengthens the infrastructure behind USDC, the world's largest regulated stablecoin, by potentially bringing its reserve management under direct federal oversight.
