$USDC - like a dollar, but in the blockchain.
💵 Centralized, transparent, and almost boring — but that is its strength.
✔️ Issuer - Circle company
✔️ 1 $USDC = 1 US dollar (ideally)
✔️ Supported on major exchanges and in DeFi
Why do you need it?
— To store without volatility
— To participate in DeFi
— To quickly move funds between networks
❗️But remember:
Centralized ≠ risk-free.
Still tied to banks, regulators, and trust.
