Circle Gateway adds support for cirbtc and eurc, expanding cross-chain assets to three.
Circle announced that its cross-chain balance service Gateway now supports cirbtc and eurc, allowing developers to move three assets using a unified interface. Each asset maintains a separate balance; depositing eurc will not fund cirbtc withdrawals or trigger automatic currency conversion. cirbtc is limited to the ARC and Ethereum networks, while eurc supports ARC, Avalanche, Base, Ethereum, Solana, and World Chain. Once balances are established, cross-chain access takes less than 500 milliseconds. Deposits are held in the non-custodial Gateway Wallet escrow contract, and an API-independent withdrawal path is also available, with withdrawals subject to a 7-day delay. The new assets are compatible with Nanopayments batch settlement, and Nanopayments for non-USDC assets are limited to EVM networks. During the launch period, Circle is waiving Gateway fees for cirbtc and eurc on ARC.
There are three major drivers behind the decline in international gold prices.
According to Jinjie Network, international gold prices have recently experienced significant fluctuations. On October 23, during the Asian trading session, spot gold briefly fell below $4,000 per ounce for the first time since July, and international gold prices have cumulatively dropped more than 3% this week. Wang Jun, chief expert at Greenland Dahua Futures, analyzed that three major factors have led to the recent decline in international gold prices: first, high oil prices, with Brent crude oil prices exceeding $114 per barrel, reinforcing the stickiness of inflation globally and in the United States; second, expectations for a Federal Reserve rate hike in December have further intensified, causing the dollar and U.S. Treasury yields to rise and reducing the appeal of gold; third, global liquidity is tightening and deleveraging is occurring. International gold prices are expected to continue facing pressure in late October and early November.
