The network is definitely something to pay attention to, because the sender and receiver need to support the same one. I usually check the minimum deposit, withdrawal limits, and processing times before making a transfer. Another thing to remember is that even though USDC is designed to maintain a stable value against the US dollar, it still comes with risks, and transactions generally can't be reversed once confirmed. I think beginners benefit from learning how wallets work first and trying a small test transaction when appropriate. It makes the process less confusing and helps avoid simple mistakes.
