USDC is an ERC20 token, so the vast majority of wallets support it out of the box.

Isn’t it funny CoinBase wallets don’t support ERC20 out of the box. They pick and choose what ERC20 tokens the support.

Hey wouldn’t you know it they support their own stablecoin, but not others...pretty sure that’s the type of centralization cryptocurrency/Blockchain was trying to avoid.

Coinbase is trying to be the interface between the government-regulated world, and the code-regulated world.

Of course they have to make more compromises to accommodate the side with the guns, than the immaterial one.
