According to RemitRoutes data, the cheapest way to cash out USDC to Mexico right now is to off-ramp through Bitso, which sells USDC for MXN at roughly a 0.02% spread. All-in — the USD on-ramp, the on-chain transfer, and the off-ramp spread — that works out to about -0.27% of the amount on a $1,000-equivalent transfer. For this corridor that is about 1.37 percentage points more than the cheapest traditional option (Xoom at -1.64%) — a regulated transfer service is the better deal here today.
