What the data says about USDC
One detail on USDC didn't fully resolve in the 2026-10-09 snapshot: its contract controls. So rather than assume anything either way, it's worth a direct check, and a quick live scan will confirm the current state for you.
Market-wise, USDC carries thin liquidity of $5.51M, 60,115 wallets holding and a maturing record at 356 days as of 2026-10-09. Against a market cap near $72.63B, that $5.51M of liquidity is the real constraint here: a pool this shallow relative to the cap makes slippage, not the contract, the thing to plan around. The 60,115-wallet base is a reasonable spread of ownership, though a headline count doesn't show whether a few wallets dominate — the concentration read on this page speaks to that. On concentration, the deployer wallet holds just <0.01% of USDC as of 2026-10-09, so the person who launched it isn't sitting on a dominant share.
Here's what would move USDC's grade from here: USDC moves up as depth grows beyond today's $5.51M and ownership stays well spread; and it would slip if concentration crept up among the 60,115 holders or depth faded. The scan above reads all of this live, so you're never more than a few seconds from USDC's current state.

Is USDC a safe token?
As of the 2026-10-09 snapshot, USDC scores 80/100 (grade B) on HostDeFi's on-chain read — based on a contract that has unconfirmed mint controls, has unconfirmed freeze and blacklist controls, liquidity of $5.51M and 60,115 holders, with the creator wallet holding <0.01% of supply. That grades contract and market structure, not price direction — a clean read is not a guarantee, so re-scan before trading, since on-chain state can change.
Can you sell USDC, or is it a honeypot?
Our unichain read covers market structure, not sell-side contract behaviour like honeypots or transfer taxes, as of 2026-10-09. Before assuming you can exit freely, run the live scan above — it reads the contract directly.
Who holds most of USDC?
The wallet that created USDC holds <0.01% of the supply as of 2026-10-09 — a small stake, under the 5% the scanners flag. That sits alongside a holder base of 60,115; a broad base lowers the odds that any one seller can steer the price, but the creator's share is the number to watch first.
Can USDC's supply be inflated?
This snapshot grades market structure only — contract-level supply controls on unichain aren't assessed here yet. Run the live scanner, which reads the contract in real time.
What is the USDC contract address?
The USDC contract address on unichain is 0x078d782b760474a361dda0af3839290b0ef57ad6. Always verify a token by its contract address, not its name or ticker — scam clones copy tickers, but the address is unique.
Where can you buy USDC safely?
Run the live on-chain scan at the top of this page first; if USDC clears, you can swap it here directly. Whatever venue you use, match the contract address (0x078d782b760474a361dda0af3839290b0ef57ad6) exactly before trading — copying the ticker is how clone scams catch buyers, and the address is the one field they can't fake.
