“classic crypto problem (newbie)”

> receives USDC on polygon 
   network, gets excited : )

> tries to figure out how to transfer 
    it to local bank account. 💪

> realizes usdc needs to go through 
    a CEX (e.g. binance).

> discovers that MATIC ( gas 
    token ) is required to pay for tx  
    fees.💀

> goes to MATIC faucet—no luck : (

> doesn't have MATIC in wallet. 
   buying MATIC requires fiat/
   crypto, which they’re don’t have 
   access to yet. 

> again, can’t buy MATIC due to 
   KYC delays/min purchase limits on 
   CEXs, & somewhere faces 
   rejection. 🥲

> finally finds a cost-free bridge, 
    without need to pay upfront fees. 
    that saves the day. 😌

eventually sorted, but with this experience, the user says, “crypto is complicated 😭 !”
