Circle Guides Users to Coinbase for Noble USDC Past Deadline

A mixed signal has caught the attention of crypto traders as Circle's public guide continued directing users to Coinbase for Noble USDC deposits well after the August 17 cutoff date. Coinbase previously announced that it would stop supporting USDC deposits and withdrawals on the Noble network, warning that funds sent afterward might not be recoverable. Even though the deadline has passed, the outdated instructions on Circle's platform created confusion for anyone trying to move funds.

This cutoff specifically affects the custodial route on Coinbase rather than Noble native USDC itself, which remains active within the Cosmos ecosystem. Noble continues to operate as Circle's native issuance chain, though it currently runs on a legacy version of the Cross Chain Transfer Protocol that Circle is phasing out over the next ten months. Circle stated that it is working on an intermediate routing solution for the Cosmos network, but details on the launch date remain scarce.

Traders and investors should double check network support on Coinbase before sending any stablecoins to avoid accidental losses. While Noble USDC maintains active circulation and support through various wallets, relying on outdated guides can lead to permanent asset loss. Keep an eye out for updated instructions from Circle to ensure your transfers land on supported rails.
