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.

How USD Coin works

Like USDT, USDC exists on many blockchains — Ethereum, Solana, Polygon, Arbitrum, BNB Smart Chain and others. Circle mints and burns tokens as dollars enter or leave its reserves, which keeps the price close to one dollar.

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.
