Rationale for Closure

關閉的理由

Circle has attributed the closure of Circle Pay to the growing adoption of stablecoins, which provide users with the convenience of fiat value transfers without the volatility associated with cryptocurrencies. The company believes that USD Coin (USDC) and similar stablecoins have emerged as more efficient and risk-averse vehicles for fiat value transfer over blockchain networks.

Circle 將 Circle Pay 的關閉歸因於穩定幣的日益普及，穩定幣為用戶提供了法定價值轉移的便利，而沒有加密貨幣帶來的波動性。該公司認為，美元硬幣（USDC）和類似的穩定幣已成為透過區塊鏈網路進行法定價值轉移的更有效和規避風險的工具。
