- How long might this last based on current rates?
- If the account gets deactivated, what happens to my USDC balance?
Thanks for the insights!

Hey Tiago, Yes, this is enough. Indefinitely If the account gets closed the usdc is lost. I'm not sure if you can close an account while there is still funds in it though.
I appreciate the initial response. I just have a couple of follow-up questions to ensure the security of my USDC holdings: Does this mean I don't have to worry about the current SOL balance leading to my account being automatically closed? Is it guaranteed that an account holding USDC will never be closed automatically? I've recently switched to Solana and hold a substantial amount of USDC. I want to make sure I don't risk losing them over such technicalities. Thanks in advance for your reassurance!
Hey, you don't need to worry about your account being closed due to your current SOL balance. Your funds are safe and accounts holding USDC will not be closed automatically.
Okay, thank you very much! This means that even if my SOL token balance were at 0, my USDC account would never be automatically closed, as it still has a balance?
Exactly, that's correct..
The specific rules for closing accounts can differ depending on the platform where you're holding your USDC. If you're looking for precise information on this matter, it's best to contact the platform directly to get the most accurate details.
Oh, I see, it's platform-dependent. I thought it would be the same whether the token account is opened via Ledger, DeFi wallet, or Solflare, as it depends on the private key and not the platform where I opened the token account?
I haven't personally come across instances where accounts are closed automatically, but have shared my perspective based on what I know about any wallet in this crypto world.
Your assumptions are correct. Token accounts can't be closed without the authority signing to close it. If a wallet holds 0 SOL and $1k USDC, the USDC will stay there forever unless it is transferred by the owner (which does require SOL)
