Staking USDC

Hey,

I have 17.5k USDC in my MetaMask wallet. I thought about staking them to receive APY on them, as I don’t see myself having any activity in the foreseeable future. Are there any platforms you would recommend? What is the safest option if I decide to do so?

Note that I don’t live in the US, so some options might not be available for me. Also, converting to fiat is a lot of hassle as the country I live in makes it difficult to withdraw any crypto funds, so I have only one option for now and it is staking.

Thanks.
