Circle Unveils Bridge Kit to Simplify Cross-Chain USDC Transfers

21.10.2025 20:24

On October 21, 2025, Circle, the issuer of USDC, announced the launch of its Bridge Kit, a developer toolkit designed to reduce the complexity of integrating cross-chain USDC transfers. The kit abstracts the underlying steps of Circle's Cross-Chain Transfer Protocol (CCTP) into a streamlined SDK, enabling transfers between EVM and non-EVM chains, such as Solana, with a single method call.

Key features include the ability to add functional cross-chain transfers in under ten lines of code, built-in monetization support that allows developers to embed fee mechanisms and earn revenue from transactions, and comprehensive documentation with sample code. This move is part of Circle's broader vision to improve developer experience (DevEx) and support the migration of the global economy onchain. The Bridge Kit is the first in a planned suite of tools aimed at simplifying core stablecoin functions like swaps and payments.
