Common Questions About Swapping SOL to USDC
Can I start this route with SOL from a Solana wallet?
Yes. Send native SOL on the Solana network from a wallet that can broadcast Solana transactions and keep enough SOL for the network fee.
What kind of receive address do I need for USDC on Arbitrum?
Use a wallet that supports USDC on Arbitrum. Because Arbitrum is EVM-compatible, the receive address usually starts with 0x.
Will I receive SOL on Ethereum or USDC on Ethereum?
You receive USDC on Arbitrum. This route changes both the asset and the network, so the completed swap arrives as USDC on Arbitrum, not as SOL on another chain.
What happens if I send SOL on the wrong network or use the wrong destination token network?
The route may fail to recognize the deposit or deliver to the intended destination setup. Always send SOL on Solana and verify the receive wallet is set up for USDC on Arbitrum before you continue.
Do I need ETH in the destination wallet to receive USDC on Arbitrum?
You can receive USDC without first holding ETH in that wallet, but if you want to move or use the funds on Arbitrum later, you may need ETH for future gas.
Why does this route ask me to verify both the token and the network?
Because SOL and USDC are different assets on different networks. The route only works as intended when the send side is native SOL on Solana and the receive side is USDC on Arbitrum.
