Circle becomes Chelsea shirt sponsor for 2026/27 season

  • Circle and USDC logos will appear on Chelsea shirts in the 2026/27 season
  • Reserve income earned Circle $668 million in the second quarter — about 95% of revenue
  • $73.3 billion USDC was in circulation at the end of June
  • Chelsea also extended its partnership with exchange BingX for the 2026/27 season
Why it matters: Circle is promoting USDC through a mass audience to strengthen the stablecoin's recognition amid competition with USDT.
