USDC is the second most popular stablecoin market cap, with about $60 billion in circulation. Circle said in a regulatory filing that USDC has been used for more than '$25 trillion in onchain transactions' since its launch in 2018. Revenue-wise the company has seen tremendous growth, going from just $15 million in 2020 to $1.7 billion in 2024. Stablecoin issuers make profits by collecting the interest on the assets they hold in reserve to back their stablecoins. Circle said USDC is backed by 'cash, short-dated US Treasuries and overnight US Treasury repurchase agreements with leading global banks.' Advertisement Circle's IPO comes amid a push by the Trump administration and the crypto industry to pass legislation that would regulate how stablecoin issuers operate in the US. A Senate bill There is also growing competition in the stablecoin field. A crypto enterprise partly owned by the Trump family just launched its own stablecoin, USD1. Circle said its long track record and values – the company says its mission statement is 'to raise global economic prosperity through the frictionless exchange of value' – will help it stand apart in the field.

Psychedelic Science 2025 Announces 'Conscious Capitalism Workshop' Featuring 'Heroic' and 'Microdose' Pitch Opportunities for Visionary Startups
Innovators, Visionaries, and VCs Will Unite for an Interactive, High-Impact, Shark-Tank-Like Session Empowering the Next Generation of Psychedelic Entrepreneurs DENVER, June 05, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Psychedelic Science 2025 (PS2025), the world's leading conference on psychedelic research, medicine, policy, and culture hosted by the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies (MAPS), today announced the addition of the Conscious Capitalism Workshop, a dynamic event blending education, investment insight, and two levels of live founder pitches: the Heroic Pitch and the Microdose Pitch. This high-energy, interactive session, taking place on Monday, June 16, 2025, from 2:30 PM to 6:00 PM at the Colorado Convention Center, offers a rare behind-the-scenes look at the values-aligned startup journey in the psychedelic ecosystem. While informally referred to as the 'Shark Tank' of PS2025, the session prioritizes mentorship over competition and integration over extraction. Attendees can hear first-hand from the 'Sharks' on how they evaluate companies and what they consider when making investment decisions. Workshop Format VC 101 Roundtable: A candid conversation led by Lewis Goldberg, Partner at KCSA Strategic Communications, exploring how psychedelic investing works—covering capital strategy, founder readiness, and ethical funding decisions. The Heroic Pitch: Select early-stage companies will deliver 10-minute pitches, followed by real-time investor feedback and shared insights. The Microdose Pitch: In this rapid-fire format, any attendee can apply to deliver a concise 2–3 minute pitch to showcase their vision. Networking Reception: The session concludes with cocktails and open networking to foster connection and collaboration. Featured Conscious Capitalists Simeon Schnapper, Managing Partner, JLS Fund Shelby Clark, Partner, Lionheart Ventures; Founder, Turo Amy Emerson, Former CEO, Lykos Therapeutics Tim Regan, Analyst, Water Tower Research These industry leaders bring deep experience in venture capital, biotech, therapeutics, and psychedelic infrastructure—and they are here not to judge, but to uplift and empower the next wave of impact entrepreneurs. A Call to Action 'This workshop is more than timely—it's essential. At a time when our nation faces an unprecedented mental health crisis, we can't wait for institutional systems to catch up. The real breakthroughs—from technology to biotech—have always come from bold founders building from the ground up. Just look at the history—Intel, Meta, Moderna, Genentech. These weren't top-down solutions. They were startups led by visionaries and backed by investors who saw the future before the market did. The PS2025 Conscious Capitalism Workshop is about giving today's psychedelic pioneers the tools, insight, and access to become tomorrow's impact giants.'— Lewis Goldberg, KCSA Partner and Moderator of the Conscious Capitalism Workshop Apply for the Microdose Pitch In a rare opportunity, applicants not selected for the Heroic Pitch can apply to participate in the Microdose Pitch—a rapid-fire, 2–3 minute live pitch in front of leading psychedelic investors and influencers. This will be a first come, first served opportunity. No slides. No pressure. Just your story, your idea, and your three minutes. To apply: Email your name, company, and a short explanation of your pitch to PS2025@ Monday, June 10, 2025, by 5:00 p.m. ETSpots are limited. The value of this exposure is immeasurable. More Than Capital — A Movement for Integration The Conscious Capitalism Workshop reflects the overarching Psychedelic Science 2025 theme of The Integration, bridging science, spirituality, innovation, and investment. As psychedelic medicine evolves into a regulated industry, how we build it—and who we empower to lead—matters more than ever.
