What to know about Monero and USD Coin
Monero (XMR)
Monero (XMR) is a privacy-focused cryptocurrency launched in April 2014 as a fork of Bytecoin, built on the CryptoNote protocol. It is developed by an open community without a company or pre-mine behind it.
Sending and receiving XMR
Main Monero addresses start with 4, subaddresses with 8; they are much longer than Bitcoin addresses. Received funds become spendable after 10 confirmations (about 20 minutes). Fees are low and do not depend on the amount.
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.
What USD Coin is used for
USDC is popular in DeFi and with businesses that prefer a regulated issuer. It is used for payments, savings in dollar terms, trading and moving value between blockchains.
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.
