How to convert PublicAI to USD Coin

Converting PUBLIC to USDC on NEAR Mobile Swap is done in three simple steps through the NEAR Intents protocol: Deposit, Swap, and Withdraw.

Step 1 — Deposit PUBLIC from NEAR
Go to the Deposit tab and select PublicAI (PUBLIC) on NEAR. The widget will generate a deposit address (or QR code) — send your PUBLIC there from any wallet. Once the deposit is confirmed on NEAR, your PUBLIC balance appears inside NEAR Intents.

Step 2 — Swap PUBLIC to USDC on NEAR Intents
Switch to the Swap tab, pick PUBLIC as the source and USDC as the target. Enter the amount and confirm — solvers compete to fill your order and the swap settles in seconds.

Step 3 — Withdraw USDC to Ethereum
Finally, go to the Withdraw tab. Select USD Coin (USDC) from your NEAR Intents balance and choose Ethereum as the destination. Enter an address from any EVM wallet such as MetaMask or Rabby and confirm.

⚠ Important: When entering a withdrawal address, make sure it is a personal wallet you control. Some centralized exchanges do not support receiving funds from smart-contract-based deposits — sending to an exchange address may result in lost funds.

About the PUBLICUSDC swap

This is a cross-chain swap: your PUBLIC leaves NEAR and USDC arrives on Ethereum. Normally that takes a bridge plus a DEX, or a centralized exchange account. With NEAR Intents the deposit, swap and withdrawal happen in one flow, and what lands in your wallet is USDC on Ethereum, not a wrapped copy you have to bridge again.

Swapping PUBLIC to USDC converts a volatile asset into a dollar-pegged stablecoin — a common way to lock in a price or step out of market swings without off-ramping to a bank account.

About PublicAI and USD Coin

What is PublicAI (PUBLIC)?

PublicAI is a decentralized 'human layer' for AI: people around the world supply, label and check data that AI companies pay for. Its PUBLIC token was sold on CoinList in August 2025 and launched that month, with NEAR as a main home, and the project counts the NEAR and Solana foundations among its backers.

How PublicAI works

Contributors complete data tasks and earn PUBLIC. They must stake tokens as collateral, which can be slashed if they submit poor or malicious work. The platform describes client revenue as the source of contributor rewards.

What PUBLIC is used for

Contributors earn and stake PUBLIC to take part in data work, and holders can stake it for yield and governance. It also trades on centralized exchanges and across NEAR, Solana and BNB Chain.

PUBLIC supply

Total supply is 1 billion PUBLIC. A large share is set aside for community rewards and airdrops, and team and investor allocations unlock over time.

Before you swap PUBLIC

This page uses the NEAR token by default. A Solana version is also listed, so pick the network your wallet expects and keep NEAR or SOL for fees. PublicAI is a newer token with a young market, so expect volatility.

What is USD Coin (USDC)?

USDC is a US dollar stablecoin issued by Circle, first launched in September 2018 through the Centre consortium that Circle founded with Coinbase. Circle now manages the token directly, and USDC is issued natively on a range of blockchains, with Ethereum among the largest.

How USD Coin works

Each USDC is meant to be redeemable for one dollar, and Circle mints or burns tokens as institutional customers deposit or withdraw funds. Reserves are held in cash and short-dated US government obligations, largely through a dedicated fund, and Circle publishes regular reports on their composition.

What USDC is used for

USDC is widely used for settlement and payments, both in crypto markets and in business transfers that benefit from moving dollars at any hour. In decentralized finance it serves as a common unit for lending, liquidity pools and trading.

USDC supply

Supply is elastic: USDC is created when dollars are deposited and destroyed when it is redeemed. Circle aims to keep reserves equal to or greater than the amount of USDC in circulation.

Before you swap USDC

The widget defaults to USDC on Ethereum, but the same token also lives on Solana, NEAR, Base and other chains, so select the network your wallet actually uses. Beware of bridged versions with similar names, which are not the same as natively issued USDC.
