> I live in Canada and recently invested a small amount in a startup via AngelList RUV. There were two funding options: (1) wire transfer, (2) transfer USDC via Ethereum network. One of these options is cheaper, faster, and more flexible than the other.

Oh I didn't know that's what the answer was. Having used both (and living in Europe), I'd thought the 'cheaper, faster' option OP mentioned was a modern wire transfer service.
