Circle’s Ludicrous Leap: 77% Revenue Surge in Q4, 2025 – The World Goes Mad for USDC

More astonishingly, the fourth quarter of 2025 saw a 77% surge in revenue to $770 million, with net profits of $133 million. Their flagship stablecoin, USDC, witnessed an annual transaction volume of $11.9 trillion, a 247% increase, as if the world had collectively lost its head over digital pennies. At press time, CRCL shares were trading at $82.22, a 33.97% jump in 24 hours, and a 156% hike from its IPO price of $31 in June 2025. Quite the farce, isn’t it?
