USDC Now Supported on Space and Time for Zero-Knowledge Data Processing

Key highlights:

  • Space and Time now supports USDC payments for ZK coprocessing, simplifying access to its Proof of SQL engine
  • Developers can pay in USDC, which is automatically converted to SXT for use across the protocol
  • The update follows the platform’s recent mainnet launch and aims to ease developer workflows

Supporting smarter onchain applications with stablecoin flexibility

Space and Time has announced that developers can now use USDC to pay for zero-knowledge (ZK) coprocessing tasks across its decentralized data network. The move introduces a more accessible payment method to power smart contracts and on-chain apps with verifiable data.

This update enables developers to fund compute workloads using USDC, a regulated and widely adopted stablecoin designed to maintain price stability. Payments made in USDC are automatically converted into SXT, the protocol’s native token, which fuels operations on the Space and Time network.

Space and Time is designed to let smart contracts access and compute over both onchain and offchain data in real time, using its Proof of SQL engine — a sub-second ZK coprocessor optimized for database queries over massive data sets. This architecture enables more complex and intelligent on-chain applications, including use cases in DeFi, gaming, and other>
