  No, USDC stablecoins are not FDIC insured. The FDIC only insures deposits in traditional banks, and USDC stablecoins are not considered deposits. They are digital assets that are backed by a reserve of assets held by Circle, the company behind USDC. So, while USDC stablecoins are not FDIC insured, they are backed by a reserve of assets to maintain their stability and value.
