What the data says about USDC

USDC on Polygon at 0x2791bca1f2de4661ed88a30c99a7a9449aa84174 is the bridged dollar Polygon ran on for years — the PoS bridge's claim on Circle's USDC held on Ethereum, still labeled "USD Coin (PoS)" and still the deeper of the chain's two USDC-flavored contracts in this index. The natively-issued sibling sits on its own page; both answer to the same ticker, which is exactly why the address matters.

The September 27, 2026 snapshot counts 3,307,570 holders — the widest footprint in this writing batch — around a $1.0 billion market cap on 1.0 billion bridged units. Tracked pool liquidity reads $14.1 million, workable for the size, on $19.1 million of 24-hour volume. The contract is a measured upgradeable proxy, which is the standard shape for a bridge-issued asset: the bridge operator can swap the implementation, so the claim inherits the bridge's trust model. The ten largest wallets hold 85.6% of supply — bridge escrows and exchange addresses own that bracket by design.

Graded B. The note worth keeping is identity, not alarm: on Polygon, "USDC" names two different contracts, and only the mint above tells you which claim a dapp is actually asking for.

FAQ

Is USDC a safe token?

As of the 2026-09-27 snapshot, USDC scores 80/100 (grade B) on NexFlow's on-chain read — based on a contract that has unconfirmed mint controls, has unconfirmed freeze and blacklist controls, liquidity of $14.06M and 3,307,570 holders, with the creator wallet holding <0.01% of supply. That grades contract and market structure, not price direction — a clean read is not a guarantee, so re-scan before trading, since on-chain state can change.

Can you sell USDC, or is it a honeypot?

Our Polygon read covers market structure, not sell-side contract behaviour like honeypots or transfer taxes, as of 2026-09-27. Before assuming you can exit freely, run the live scan above — it reads the contract directly.

Who holds most of USDC?

The wallet that created USDC holds <0.01% of the supply as of 2026-09-27 — a small stake, under the 5% the scanners flag. That sits alongside a holder base of 3,307,570; a broad base lowers the odds that any one seller can steer the price, but the creator's share is the number to watch first.

Can USDC's supply be inflated?

This snapshot grades market structure only — contract-level supply controls on Polygon aren't assessed here yet. Run the live scanner, which reads the contract in real time.

What is the USDC contract address?

The USDC contract address on Polygon is 0x2791bca1f2de4661ed88a30c99a7a9449aa84174. Always verify a token by its contract address, not its name or ticker — scam clones copy tickers, but the address is unique.

Where can you buy USDC safely?

Run the live on-chain scan at the top of this page first; if USDC clears, you can swap it here directly. Whatever venue you use, match the contract address (0x2791bca1f2de4661ed88a30c99a7a9449aa84174) exactly before trading — copying the ticker is how clone scams catch buyers, and the address is the one field they can't fake.
