What to know about USD Coin and Polygon
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.
Sending and receiving USDC
Send USDC only on the network the recipient supports: an Ethereum address and a Polygon address may look identical but the funds end up on different chains. Fees are paid in the native coin of the network (ETH, SOL, POL…).
Polygon (POL)
POL (formerly MATIC) is the token of the Polygon ecosystem. Polygon started in 2017 as a scaling solution for Ethereum; in 2024 MATIC was upgraded to POL.
Where to store Polygon
POL can be kept in MetaMask and other EVM wallets and on hardware wallets.
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.
