I go to the company and give them a dollar. They cryptographically sign over to me a digital Chuck E. Cheese token of sorts that I can cryptographically sign over to someone else. Just like I can do whatever I want with Chuck E. Cheese tokens, I can circulate my USDC around and do whatever with it. Then at some point in the future someone goes to the company and says hey I want a dollar. He signs the token over to them and they validate that it traces back to the dollar I gave them. They give the dollar to the other guy, presumably after fulfilling KYC requirements. So really they only need to KYC the buyer and the seller. Everything that happens in between is not really their business. It's not really anything really. Just a bunch of people doing cryptographic signatures and publishing them online.
