What to know about Ethereum Classic and USD Coin
Ethereum Classic (ETC)
Ethereum Classic (ETC) is the original Ethereum chain that continued unchanged after the 2016 split, when most of the community moved to a new chain to reverse the DAO hack.
Sending and receiving ETC
ETC addresses start with 0x like Ethereum addresses. Never send ETC to an ETH-only wallet or the other way round.
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.
Polygon network
Polygon PoS is an Ethereum-compatible network with addresses in the same 0x format. Fees are paid in POL and usually cost a fraction of a cent.
