This guide is designed to assist users in transferring USDC from their MetaMask wallet to the platform wallet or "OWN wallet".
There are two ways to transfer USDC to your OWN wallet - either by connecting your MetaMask wallet directly on the platform or by following the steps outlined in this guide to transfer USDC from MetaMask.
Quick walkthrough of the entire flow

#1. 📋 Copy your OWN Wallet Address:

  • Log in to your account on the platform.
  • Navigate to the "Assets" section.
  • Find the option to "Copy Wallet Address".
  • Copy the displayed address to your clipboard by clicking on the copy icon.
