I'm curious to know if USDT is classified as an ERC20 token. Could you please elaborate on this? As I understand, ERC20 is a standard for tokens issued on the Ethereum blockchain, and USDT being a stablecoin, I'm wondering if it adheres to this standard. Your explanation would greatly help me in understanding the technicalities behind USDT and its categorization within the crypto ecosystem. Thank you for your time and consideration.
