Building crypto apps is still too hard. Plus, less than 0.5% of the 100 million developers worldwide are actively building crypto apps today.

This needs to change. Our new wallet-as-a-service developer platform is a huge step in that regard. Check it out \ud83d\udc47\ud83d\ude80 https:\/\/t.co\/ku9LTz8Z97<\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a><\/p>— Patrick Hansen (@paddi_hansen) August 8, 2023<\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a><\/blockquote>

MPC wallets divide a user's private key into shards distributed across a decentralized network<\/a>. This technology has gained popularity among Web3 developers due to its API accessibility, providing a “Web2 feel.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Developers using the new service can choose different security and control settings. They can host their own MPC nodes or connect to Circle's nodes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The wallet can be noncustodial, requiring users to sign transactions, or users and developers can share transaction signing responsibilities.Jeremy Allaire, Circle's co-founder and CEO, views this service as pivotal for boosting USDC adoption and open blockchain-based payments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Circle notes a growing demand for euro-backed stablecoins and suggests a yuan stablecoin<\/a> could be more appealing than one the Chinese central bank issued.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
