Financial public chain Pharos Network announces partnership with Circle to deploy USDC and CCTP to mainnet, further building an inclusive global RealFi settlement layer
Hong Kong, March 27, 2026 – Pharos Network, an institutional-grade, high-performance parallel Layer 1 blockchain built for real-world finance, announced today a strategic partnership with Circle, the globally leading regulated issuer of the digital dollar stablecoin. The mainnet will officially deploy USDC and Circle’s Cross-Chain Transfer Protocol (CCTP). This collaboration will provide trusted, institutional-grade USD settlement capabilities for real-world financial markets on Pharos, while enabling seamless and efficient cross-chain capital flows through CCTP. This integration marks a critical step for Pharos in its strategic direction of building a “globally inclusive RealFi settlement layer.”
The deployment of USDC introduces an institutional-grade stablecoin choice to the Pharos ecosystem. As a transparent, fully-reserved, USD-denominated stablecoin, USDC will serve as a core settlement and collateral asset, applied in scenarios such as RWA tokenization, DeFi and lending, and global payment flows.
Simultaneously, the Circle CCTP protocol establishes a native cross-chain channel between Pharos and over 20 mainstream blockchains, enabling 400+ secure transaction paths. By eliminating reliance on third-party bridges or wrapped assets, CCTP further enhances asset integrity and capital efficiency between supported blockchains.
With the protocol-layer integration of USDC settlement complete, developers will be able to build lending markets, structured financial products, and globally-operating, 24/7 payment networks on Pharos. Institutional capital can access the on-chain RWA market based on compliant infrastructure, while global users will gain broader opportunities to participate in real-world finance.
The integration of USDC and CCTP will further unlock the financial potential of the Pharos ecosystem. In tokenized financial markets, USDC within the Pharos ecosystem can serve as the primary settlement and collateral asset for instruments like tokenized U.S. Treasuries, private credit, and commodities, while also providing liquidity for DeFi trading and lending.
Beyond trading activities, merchants and payment service providers can leverage USDC for efficient settlement, benefiting from its transparent reserve mechanism and redemption infrastructure.
Furthermore, CCTP will support the seamless transfer of USDC between Pharos and other supported blockchains, enabling capital to flow freely across ecosystems while supporting more efficient liquidity management and the cross-chain distribution of tokenized real-world assets.
Regarding this integration, Wish Wu from the Pharos Foundation stated:
RealFi requires both a trustworthy settlement mechanism and the ability to access global markets. The integration of USDC and CCTP brings institutional-grade reliability to Pharos while extending that reliability to developers and users worldwide. Our vision has always been to build truly inclusive infrastructure to support real-world financial markets.
With the deployment of USDC and CCTP, Pharos is now fully open to developers, financial institutions, and enterprises seeking compliant, stable, and efficient infrastructure. This move, synergizing with a recently launched $10 million ecosystem incubation program by Pharos, will further accelerate ecosystem growth.
By integrating USDC and CCTP to support secure cross-chain capital flows, Pharos is building the infrastructure layer for RealFi, enabling institutional-grade assets to circulate on-chain while maintaining openness to global participants. This brings us one step closer to the goal of “making real-world finance more open, transparent, and inclusive.”

Compiled by@OdailyChina; Translated by Azuma (@azuma_eth) We deployed 22 autonomous trading AI Agents on Hyperliquid via Senpi, each configured with $1000 in real capital. They operate 24/7 — scanning markets, opening positions, setting trailing stops, managing risk — with zero human intervention. After deploying $22,000 in initial capital and executing over 5000 trades, here are our key takeaways. General Conclusion “Fewer trades” plus “higher conviction” always equals “better results.” This isn’t an occasional occurrence; it holds true every single time. Odaily Note: Fox, Bison, Ghost Fox, and Grizzly, Viper, Mamba, Anaconda mentioned later are all names of Agents executing different strategies. As shown above, Agent “Fox” and Agent “Ghost Fox” use the same scanner. Fox selectively executes only some of its signals, while Ghost Fox executes many more. The result?…
