TREE NEWS update: Circle cut roughly 5% of its workforce, disclosed in a footnote to its third-quarter results. The USDC issuer reported revenue up 17% to $865 million, lifted by its ARC token presale, but did not say how many employees lost their jobs.
Circle Cuts About 5% of Workforce as Q3 Revenue Rises 17% to $865M
The juxtaposition is the story: revenue growth alongside a headcount reduction disclosed only in a footnote suggests Circle is prioritizing operating discipline even while top-line figures look healthy. The silence on absolute job numbers, and the reliance on a token presale to lift revenue, are the details that invite scrutiny. For a USDC issuer, cost control signals a focus on resilience over expansion. Whether presale-driven revenue proves repeatable, and whether further workforce moves follow, are the open questions.
