I'm trying to understand if USDC is based on the Ethereum network. I want to know if it's built on top of ETH or if it's a completely separate entity. Can someone clarify this for me?
To understand this better, we need to explore the concept of native tokens. Native tokens are those that are built directly on a specific blockchain and are not issued through other platforms or chains.
