According to @AltcoinGordon, OpenVPP showcased its OpenVPP World product at the Global Itron Inspire Conference and demonstrated how electric utilities could settle transactions using USDC, source: @AltcoinGordon on X (Oct 31, 2025). The post asserts this development could benefit OVPP and describes Itron as a leading metering and billing provider, but it includes no independent documentation or official links confirming a USDC-based settlement pilot, source: @AltcoinGordon on X (Oct 31, 2025). For trading, the prudent checklist is to wait for official statements from Itron, OpenVPP, and Circle confirming any pilot or integration, and to verify OVPP contract addresses, listings, and liquidity before taking positions, source: absence of corroborating materials in @AltcoinGordon’s post on X (Oct 31, 2025).
