What to know about Ethereum and USD Coin
Ethereum (ETH)
Ethereum is a programmable blockchain proposed by Vitalik Buterin and launched in 2015. Its native coin, ETH, pays for computation on the network. Thousands of tokens, stablecoins, decentralized exchanges, lending protocols and NFT collections run on Ethereum.
Sending and receiving ETH
Ethereum addresses start with 0x and are the same format on BNB Smart Chain, Arbitrum, Optimism and Polygon — so always check which network the recipient expects. The fee (gas) is paid in ETH and depends on network load; a transfer is usually confirmed within a few minutes.
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.
Ethereum (ERC20) network
ERC20 is the token standard on Ethereum. It is supported by almost every wallet and exchange, but the fee (gas) is paid in ETH and grows when the network is busy.
How to exchange Ethereum to USD Coin
- Enter the ETH Optimism amount in the calculator (minimum 0.08888 ETH Optimism) and click “Go to exchange”.
- Enter your USDC wallet address on the Ethereum (ERC20) network and your contact details.
- Send exactly the specified amount of ETH Optimism on the Optimism 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 ETH Optimism to USDC ERC20
- The recipient address must be on the Ethereum (ERC20) network: funds sent on another network may be lost.
- The amount sent must be at least 0.08888 ETH Optimism.
- 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.
