Circle to exit Noble blockchain by January next year, halting new USDC minting in October

Circle announced it will end support for USDC and CCTP V1 on the Noble blockchain, with no integration for CCTP V2. Starting October 13, 2026, Circle Mint will cease new USDC minting on Noble, while redemptions will remain open until January 12, 2027. After this date, USDC contracts and CCTP routing on Noble will be fully suspended. Circle advises users to migrate USDC from Noble to other supported networks before the deadline. A snapshot of remaining balances will be taken upon suspension, and a manual redemption process will commence on January 13, 2027.
