The San Francisco-based crypto exchange Coinbase is a latecomer to the game, but it also started listing stablecoins. The first coin tied to the fiat currency was

USDC

- a tokenized US dollar created by the company Circle.

The

official blog post

states:

“ The advantage of a blockchain-based digital dollar like USDC is easier to program with, to send quickly, to use in dApps, and to store locally than traditional bank account-based dollars .”

USDC is already available for purchase and sell at Coinbase.
