+title: CCTP Bridge with Wormhole
+description: Learn how the integration of Circle's CCTP with Wormhole enables secure and efficient native USDC transfers and complex cross-chain interactions.

+
+# CCTP with Wormhole Overview 
+
+The integration of [Circle's Cross-Chain Transfer Protocol (CCTP)](https://www.circle.com/cross-chain-transfer-protocol){target=\_blank} with the Wormhole messaging protocol creates a robust system for securely and efficiently transferring native USDC across different blockchain networks while enabling more complex multichain interactions. This combination streamlines the movement of stablecoins, reduces risk, and unlocks new possibilities for decentralized applications.
+
+## Key Features
+
+- **Secure native USDC transfers** - at its core, CCTP provides a "burn-and-mint" mechanism for transferring native USDC. This eliminates the need for wrapped assets and the associated risks of intermediary bridges
+- **Atomic execution** - by combining CCTP and Wormhole, the transfer of USDC and the execution of accompanying instructions on the destination chain can occur as a single, atomic transaction
+- **Enhanced composability** - developers can build more sophisticated cross-chain applications by sending additional data alongside the USDC transfer
+
+## How It Works
+
+This section outlines the end-to-end flow for transferring native USDC across chains using CCTP while optionally triggering an action on the destination chain. Circle and Wormhole coordinate each step to ensure a secure, verifiable transfer and execution process.
+
+1.  **Initiation on source chain** - a user on the source chain initiates a USDC transfer and specifies the action on the destination chain
+2.  **CCTP burn and package** - Wormhole packages CCTP burn of native USDC on the source chain and the destination chain action instructions
+3.  **Circle attestation** -  Circle's attestation service confirms the USDC burn on the source chain and issues a signature
+4.  **Guardians relay** - Guardians sign and relay burn attestation and action instructions to the destination chain
+5.  **Mint and verify** - Circle's attestation in Wormhole message triggers CCTP mint of native USDC on the destination chain after verification
+6.  **Execute action** - action on destination chain executes if included in Wormhole message, potentially using new USDC
+
+This process highlights how CCTP ensures the secure transfer of native USDC, while Wormhole provides the messaging infrastructure to carry the attestation and enable more complex, automated cross-chain workflows.
+
+!!! note Note 
+    Wormhole supports all CCTP chains, however, Circle currently supports a few that you can find listed in [Circles supported domains](https://developers.circle.com/stablecoins/supported-domains).
+
+
+## Use Cases
+
+Integrating Wormhole's messaging with CCTP enables the secure transfer of native USDC across blockchains, unlocking key cross-chain use cases, which include:
+
+- **USDC Payments Across Chains**
+    - [**CCTP**](/docs/products/cctp-bridge/get-started/) – transfer native USDC using Circle’s burn-and-mint protocol
+    - [**Wormhole TypeScript SDK**](/docs/tools/typescript-sdk/sdk-reference/) – automate attestation delivery and gas handling
+    - [**Connect**](/docs/products/connect/overview/) – embed multichain USDC transfers directly in your app
+
+- **USDC-Powered Multichain Settlement**
+    - [**Settlement**](/docs/products/settlement/overview/) – use the Liquidity Layer to settle intents with native USDC
+    - [**Wormhole TypeScript SDK**](/docs/tools/typescript-sdk/sdk-reference/) – initiate transfers, discover routes, and execute swaps seamlessly
+
+## Next Steps
+
+Now that you're familiar with CCTP, here is a guide for hands-on practice:

body: Great start! Some ideas that came into my mind while reading this page:
- Add link to supported CCTP chains
- Maybe mention that it supports manual and automatic transactions
- Mention that you can interact with it using the Typescript SDK?

This is how the transfer object should look (with all its parameters):

`const xfer = await wh.circleTransfer(
		amt,
		source.address,
		destination.address,
		automatic,
		undefined,
		nativeGas
	);
`

@eshaben @ilariae any thoughts?

+**Atomic Execution** - By combining CCTP and Wormhole, the transfer of USDC and the execution of accompanying instructions on the destination chain can occur as a single, atomic transaction.
+
+**Enhanced Composability** - Developers can build more sophisticated cross-chain applications by sending additional data alongside the USDC transfer.
+
+## How It Works
+
+Imagine a user wants to move USDC from Ethereum to Polygon and simultaneously trigger a swap on a DEX.
+
+1.  **Initiation on Source Chain:** The user initiates the transfer of native USDC on Ethereum through a dApp integrated with both CCTP and Wormhole. The application also defines the swap action to be executed on Polygon.
+2.  **CCTP Burn and Wormhole Message:** The specified amount of native USDC is burned on Ethereum via CCTP. Simultaneously, Wormhole packages the details of the CCTP burn event along with the instructions for the swap on Polygon into a cross-chain message.
+3.  **Circle Attestation:** Circle's attestation service confirms the USDC burn on Ethereum and issues a cryptographic signature.
+4.  **Wormhole Relayer Network:** Wormhole guardians observe the burn event and Circle's attestation. They then sign and relay the message containing the attestation and the swap instructions to the target chain (Polygon).
+5.  **Message Delivery and CCTP Mint:** On Polygon, the Wormhole message is received and verified by the Wormhole core contract. The CCTP integration on Polygon uses Circle's attestation within the Wormhole message to mint the equivalent amount of native USDC.
+6.  **Automated Action (Optional):** If included in the Wormhole message, the swap instruction is then executed on the designated DEX on Polygon, potentially utilizing the newly arrived USDC.
+
+This process highlights how CCTP ensures the secure transfer of native USDC, while Wormhole provides the messaging infrastructure to carry the attestation and enable more complex, automated cross-chain workflows.

+# CCTP with Wormhole Overview 
+
+The integration of Circle's Cross-Chain Transfer Protocol (CCTP) with the Wormhole messaging protocol creates a robust system for securely and efficiently transferring native USDC across different blockchain networks while enabling more complex cross-chain interactions. This combination streamlines the movement of stablecoins, reduces risk, and unlocks new possibilities for decentralized applications.
+
+## Key Features
+
+**Secure Native USDC Transfers (CCTP)** - At its core, CCTP provides a "burn-and-mint" mechanism for transferring native USDC. This eliminates the need for wrapped assets and the associated risks of intermediary bridges.
+
+**Generic Cross-Chain Messaging (Wormhole)** - Wormhole acts as a powerful communication layer, allowing for the transmission of arbitrary data between blockchains.
+
+**Atomic Execution** - By combining CCTP and Wormhole, the transfer of USDC and the execution of accompanying instructions on the destination chain can occur as a single, atomic transaction.
+
+**Enhanced Composability** - Developers can build more sophisticated cross-chain applications by sending additional data alongside the USDC transfer.
+
+## How It Works
+
+Imagine a user wants to move USDC from Ethereum to Polygon and simultaneously trigger a swap on a DEX.
+
+1.  **Initiation on Source Chain:** The user initiates the transfer of native USDC on Ethereum through a dApp integrated with both CCTP and Wormhole. The application also defines the swap action to be executed on Polygon.
+2.  **CCTP Burn and Wormhole Message:** The specified amount of native USDC is burned on Ethereum via CCTP. Simultaneously, Wormhole packages the details of the CCTP burn event along with the instructions for the swap on Polygon into a cross-chain message.
+3.  **Circle Attestation:** Circle's attestation service confirms the USDC burn on Ethereum and issues a cryptographic signature.
+4.  **Wormhole Relayer Network:** Wormhole guardians observe the burn event and Circle's attestation. They then sign and relay the message containing the attestation and the swap instructions to the target chain (Polygon).
+5.  **Message Delivery and CCTP Mint:** On Polygon, the Wormhole message is received and verified by the Wormhole core contract. The CCTP integration on Polygon uses Circle's attestation within the Wormhole message to mint the equivalent amount of native USDC.
+6.  **Automated Action (Optional):** If included in the Wormhole message, the swap instruction is then executed on the designated DEX on Polygon, potentially utilizing the newly arrived USDC.
+
+This process highlights how CCTP ensures the secure transfer of native USDC, while Wormhole provides the messaging infrastructure to carry the attestation and enable more complex, automated cross-chain workflows.
+
+## Use Cases
+
+Integrating Wormhole's messaging with CCTP enables the secure transfer of native USDC across blockchains, unlocking key cross-chain use cases. which include:
+
+- **Enhanced Cross-Chain DEX Aggregation**

I think the items on the left should be like an action item that's happening. Like initiation on source chain, perfect. CCTP burn (good) and Wormhole message (what about it?). Wormhole relayer network - what about it?

+
+# CCTP with Wormhole Overview 
+
+The integration of [Circle's Cross-Chain Transfer Protocol (CCTP)](https://www.circle.com/cross-chain-transfer-protocol){target=\_blank}  with the Wormhole messaging protocol creates a robust system for securely and efficiently transferring native USDC across different blockchain networks while enabling more complex multichain interactions. This combination streamlines the movement of stablecoins, reduces risk, and unlocks new possibilities for decentralized applications.
+
+## Key Features
+
+- **Secure native USDC transfers** - at its core, CCTP provides a "burn-and-mint" mechanism for transferring native USDC. This eliminates the need for wrapped assets and the associated risks of intermediary bridges
+- **Generic cross-chain messaging** - wormhole acts as a powerful communication layer, allowing for the transmission of arbitrary data between blockchains
+- **Atomic execution** - by combining CCTP and Wormhole, the transfer of USDC and the execution of accompanying instructions on the destination chain can occur as a single, atomic transaction
+- **Enhanced composability** - developers can build more sophisticated cross-chain applications by sending additional data alongside the USDC transfer
+
+## How It Works
+
+Imagine a user wants to move USDC from a source chain to a destination chain and trigger an action there. This is what that flow would look like:
+
+
+1.  **Initiation on source chain** - user on source chain dApp initiates native USDC transfer and specifies action on destination chain
+2.  **CCTP burn and Wormhole Message** - Wormhole packages CCTP burn of native USDC on source chain and destination chain action instructions
+3.  **Circle attestation** -  Circle's attestation service confirms the USDC burn on the source chain and issues a cryptographic signature
+4.  **Wormhole relayer network** - Guardians sign and relay burn attestation and action instructions to the destination chain
+5.  **Message delivery and CCTP mint** - Circle's attestation in Wormhole message triggers CCTP mint of native USDC on the destination chain after verification
+6.  **Automated action** - action on destination chain executes if included in Wormhole message, potentially using new USDC
+
+This process highlights how CCTP ensures the secure transfer of native USDC, while Wormhole provides the messaging infrastructure to carry the attestation and enable more complex, automated cross-chain workflows.
+
+_Note_ Wormhole supports all CCTP chains, however, Circle currently supports a few that you can find listed in [Circles supported domains](https://developers.circle.com/stablecoins/supported-domains). 
+
+## Use Cases
+
+Integrating Wormhole's messaging with CCTP enables the secure transfer of native USDC across blockchains, unlocking key cross-chain use cases, which include:
+
+- **USDC Payments Across Chains**
+    - [**CCTP**](/docs/products/cctp-bridge/get-started/) – transfer native USDC using Circle’s burn-and-mint protocol
+    - [**Wormhole SDK**](/docs/tools/typescript-sdk/sdk-reference/) – automate attestation delivery and gas handling
+    - [**Connect**](/docs/products/connect/overview/) – embed multichain USDC transfers directly in your app
+
+- **USDC Powered Multichain Settlement**
+    - [**Settlement**](/docs/products/settlement/overview/) – use the Liquidity Layer to settle intents with native USDC
+    - [**Wormhole SDK**](/docs/tools/typescript-sdk/sdk-reference/) – initiate transfers, discover routes, and execute swaps seamlessly

body: Based on the titles, this isn't sequential. Users don't need to first get started, then send a manual message, then an automated one. So we shouldn't force it into a timeline. Plus if the CCTP get started page turns out like the Token Bridge page, which it should, all of these would be shown as an example in the get started page. I'd opt for a list here instead of a timeline

body: @Telucero I just added support for mermaid in mkdocs, so if you pull the latest changes in the `staging-new-ia` branch in the mkdocs repo, you can throw in a mermaid diagram on this page. I just use ChatGPT to help me create mermaid diagrams. You can also use this fun tool to take a look at it before adding it to the docs (sometimes can be helpful): https://mermaid.live/

But just note that there are certain features of mermaid that aren't supported in the specific plugin we're using, so if it doesn't render on the page that could be the reason why.

Definitely

Yes, would you say that fits better under Key Features or How It Works? I guess it depends on what we say about the transfers. If it's just that it supports them, probably under features. If we're going to say, how the manual or automatic process works, it would fit better under how it works.

I don't think we should add any code in the overview pages

Maybe we should have a separate page explaining how manual and automatic transfers work because it's a shared concept between CCTP and Token Bridge. So then we can reference that page in both Overview pages.
