IBKR's support for USDC deposits once again confirms my viewpoint.
As one of the world's largest securities firms, what does it mean for Interactive Brokers to support USDC deposits?
Strictly speaking, transparency can also be an L1 。
The various securities on chain projects and even securities trading chains that everyone worked on before have been somewhat overshadowed.
Anyway, it's all a data center chain. Instead of running my money onto an unknown small chain and trading securities tokens managed by an unknown market maker and held under the custody of an unknown securities firm. It's better to confidently fill U into Yingtong and enjoy truly world-class liquidity and security.
Of course, it is not a complete denial of RWA for securities tokens, as there are still DeFi on the chain and some people are temporarily unable to open profit margins.
However, it is a major trend for securities firms to support stablecoin deposits. The United States is promoting it, Hong Kong is promoting it, and Singapore is hesitant (but I guess that the United States and Hong Kong will follow suit if there are no problems in the future).
As for securities firms, although some may not be able to open Interactive Brokers, they can still open many foreign securities firms with mainland identity, so it is only a matter of time.

Some other information:
The gateway for this stablecoin recharge by Interactive Brokers is Paxos and ZeroHash.
Recharge USDC and receive it directly in US dollars. The gateway will charge a conversion fee of 0.3% (reference: not high, much lower than the 1% -1.5% withdrawal wear and tear in our industry)
I originally used HashKey OTC at around 0.2%, which is slightly higher by 0.1%, but the pain is not obvious. Moreover, traditional OTC involves withdrawing funds first to the bank, which then goes to the securities firm. However, fast entry and exit can also make the bank sensitive, so it is also good to bypass this step.
The monthly limit is 100000 US dollars, which is enough for individual investors. I wonder if there are any special channels for large investors to increase their limit.
