# How does ebioro use blockchain?

###### How does ebioro use blockchain?

ebioro uses the [Stellar network](https://help.ebioro.com/es/article/que-es-la-red-stellar-1e2rtep/), a distributed ledger designed for fast, low-cost transactions, to help you send, receive, and manage digital assets such as USDC securely and efficiently.

**What is Stellar?**

Stellar is a decentralized network that allows individuals and businesses to transfer value almost instantly, with minimal fees. Unlike more resource-intensive [blockchains](https://help.ebioro.com/es/article/que-es-el-blockchain-1m7g8ft/) such as Bitcoin or Ethereum, Stellar is optimized for everyday payments.

**Why Stellar instead of another network?**

* **Speed.** Transactions are confirmed within seconds.
* **Cost.** Fees are minimal, making the network ideal for frequent or small-value transfers.
* **Focus on payments.** Stellar was specifically designed to transfer money, not just store value.

**What is USDC?**

USDC is a stablecoin issued by Circle, a company regulated in the United States. Every USDC in circulation is backed 1:1 by US dollar reserves, providing stability closely tied to that of traditional money.

**Key benefits of using ebioro on Stellar**

* **Decentralized control.** Transactions take place without a central authority, giving you greater control over your funds.
* **Transparency.** Every transaction is recorded on the Stellar network, making it fully traceable.
* **Speed and low cost.** Transfers are completed within seconds with minimal fees, even across countries.
* **No traditional banks.** You can send and receive money without relying on financial intermediaries.

With ebioro, you can use money digitally, with stability and without borders.
