It’s worth mentioning USDC (Circle) reserves have never been audited, and they don’t even claim to hold dollars anymore (https://archive.today/2021.07.12-223553/https://www.ft.com/c...):

> Until March 2020, the attestations said USDC was backed by dollars, held in government-backed US depository institutions. After that, they said the reserves were held at institutions and in “approved investments”, but did not give precise details about what those investments were. By June, it changed the wording on its website from “backed by US dollars” to “backed by fully reserved assets”.
