I've been reading a lot about cryptocurrencies lately and one thing that has caught my attention is the ERC20 standard. It seems to be quite popular and widely used. However, I'm a bit confused about the relationship between ERC20 and ETH addresses. Could you clarify for me? Are ERC20 tokens compatible with ETH addresses? In other words, can I send ERC20 tokens to an ETH address or vice versa? I've heard that ERC20 is a token standard built on the Ethereum blockchain, but I'm not entirely sure how this translates into practical usage. Could you explain the differences and similarities between ERC20 and ETH addresses? It would really help me understand the cryptocurrency ecosystem better.

ETH and ERC-20 tokens share a similar address format, but they are not interchangeable.
