Circle will discontinue USDC support and the legacy CCTP V1 cross-chain protocol on Noble as it shifts to CCTP V2. New USDC minting through Circle Mint will stop on October 13, 2026, while transfers on Noble and redemptions will remain available until January 12, 2027. Circle will then pause the Noble USDC contract and CCTP routes, record remaining balances, and open a manual redemption portal on January 13, 2027. Holders must use a holder-controlled wallet captured in the snapshot and satisfy Circle’s compliance and security requirements. CCTP V1 burn limits will begin declining on October 31, 2026, and exits may become restricted after December 1. Noble will not receive CCTP V2, although Circle said its Cosmos ecosystem activity and partnerships, including with Injective and other IBC-connected chains, will continue.
