What to know about Bitcoin and USD Coin
Bitcoin (BTC)
Bitcoin is the first cryptocurrency. It was described in a 2008 white paper by the pseudonymous Satoshi Nakamoto and launched in January 2009. Bitcoin has no issuer or central operator: the rules are enforced by thousands of independent nodes, and the supply is capped at 21 million coins.
Sending and receiving BTC
Bitcoin addresses start with 1, 3 or bc1. The fee depends on how busy the network is, not on the amount you send, so wallets let you pick a faster or cheaper fee. A payment is usually treated as final after several confirmations; each new block adds one, so a transfer takes from about 10 minutes to an hour.
USD Coin (USDC)
USD Coin (USDC) is a dollar stablecoin issued by Circle since 2018. Each token is backed by reserves held in cash and short-term US Treasuries, and the reserve composition is regularly reported by the issuer.
Where to store USD Coin
Any wallet that supports the network and the official USDC contract will do; hardware wallets are the safest option for large amounts.
Optimism network
Optimism is an Ethereum layer-2 network. Addresses use the Ethereum format and fees are paid in ETH at a fraction of mainnet cost.
How to exchange Bitcoin to USD Coin

- Send exactly the specified amount of BTC on the Bitcoin network to the details shown in the order.
- Once the transfer is confirmed, USD Coin is sent to your address. You can track the order on its status page.
What to check before exchanging BTC to USDC Optimism
- The recipient address must be on the Optimism network: funds sent on another network may be lost.
- The amount sent must be at least 0.00233205 BTC.
- Copy the whole address and check the first and last characters after pasting.
- Funds go through an AML check; high-risk transfers may be held until the check is complete.
