Contributing Factors
+27Reserve assurance: Deloitte & Touche LLP publishes MONTHLY AICPA agreed-upon-procedures attestations that reserves >= USDC in circulation; ~80%+ of reserves in the BlackRock-managed Circle Reserve Fund (USDXX, a 2a-7 government MMF custodied at BNY Mellon); S&P reaffirmed USDC at '2 (strong)'
+27Primary economic risk is OFF-CHAIN: reserve composition / banking counterparty (USDC briefly depegged to ~$0.88 during the Mar-2023 SVB event, then fully recovered as contracts behaved correctly)
+27Confidence held moderate (62): peg solvency depends on off-chain attestations outside the BlackHart on-chain scoring substrate
-181:1 fiat-backed model: no on-chain leverage, flash-loan, liquidation, or AMM logic on the token itself — minimal on-chain economic attack surface
