Coinbase plans to add more jurisdictions in the future.
USD Coin is currently listed on Coinbase Wallet, an app for storing ERC20 tokens, and will be coming to Coinbase Pro in the coming weeks.
USD Coin has already gained support from more than 40 blockchain and crypto companies in sectors including wallets, custodians, exchanges, decentralized applications, and numerous leading firms.
Each USD Coin is collateralized with a single U.S. Dollar.

"Coinbase and Circle share a common vision of an open global financial system built on crypto rails and blockchain infrastructure, and realizing this vision requires industry leaders to collaborate to build interoperable protocols and standards."
