Could you please elaborate on the distinction between ERC-20 and USDT ERC-20? I'm trying to understand the nuances between these two tokens and how they operate within the crypto ecosystem. ERC-20, as I understand, is a technical standard for smart contracts on the Ethereum blockchain, enabling the creation of fungible tokens. But what exactly does USDT ERC-20 mean? Is it a specific type of ERC-20 token? And how does it differ from other ERC-20 tokens? I'm particularly interested in understanding the use cases and functionalities of both, as well as any potential advantages or disadvantages of each. Thank you for your clarification.

    ERC20, while popular, may not offer the same transactional efficiency as TRC20.

    The first is TRC20, which operates specifically on the TRON blockchain.
