A Historic Upgrade on Linea and MetaMask Metal Card For You (Maybe)
We’re very excited this week to have completed the first ever automatic bridged USDC ➡️ Native USDC upgrade with Circle on Linea.
We’ll dig in with Circle on the Sequencer livestream Thursday at 1 PM ET / 6 PM UTC on X or YouTube.
No bridging or swapping is involved in this historic upgrade, just your USDC.e becoming Native USDC with all its inherent goodness, and without you having to do a single thing or fret one moment.
@Circle’s USDC and CCTP V2 are now available on Linea! Linea is the first blockchain to transition from Bridged USDC Standard to native USDC. 
This is a big deal - here’s why 
Native USDC is now live on @LineaBuild!
A major milestone for the Linea ecosystem with the first bridged-to-native USDC upgrade now complete.
