What you actually get

USDC Algorand to USDC Arbitrum, at four sizes

FAQ

USDC Algorand to USDC Arbitrum, in short

Using it

What is the minimum USDC Algorand to USDC Arbitrum swap?

0.398983 USDC right now. The desk sets it live and it moves with the Arbitrum network fee — below it, that fee would eat the swap. There is no fixed maximum on this pair.

Which address do I need to receive USDC?

A Arbitrum address you control — it starts with 0x — 42 characters. USDC exists on several networks; an address from another one looks valid and the coins would be unrecoverable, so we check it against Arbitrum before creating anything.

How long does USDC Algorand to USDC Arbitrum take?

Around 10-60 minutes end to end, as forecast by the desk right now. Most of that is Algorand confirming your deposit — the exchange and the payout themselves take seconds.

Money & privacy

Is this a bridge?

No. A bridge locks your tokens in a smart contract on one chain and issues a representation of them on the other. Here the desk receives your USDC on Algorand and pays you USDC on Arbitrum from its own liquidity: nothing is wrapped, there is no contract to approve and no wallet to connect. You send to an address, you receive at an address.

Can I get a guaranteed amount of USDC?

Yes — pick Fixed in the module. The rate is locked when the exchange is created, and a countdown starts for your deposit.

What does it cost?

Two things come out: the Arbitrum network fee for sending your payout — 0.181278 USDC right now — shown on its own line, and our margin, which is already inside the rate. Nothing is added after you confirm.

Do I need an account or ID?

No. There is no account to create and we never ask for identity documents, at any amount. The one case where a swap can be held is spelled out in the AML policy rather than hidden.

Is a USDC Algorand to USDC Arbitrum swap traceable?

On-chain, yes: Algorand and Arbitrum are public ledgers, so the deposit and the payout are visible to anyone, like any other transaction on them. What nobody can link them to is an identity: there is no account, no document and no request log here — the privacy policy names the only parties in the path.

What if the swap cannot complete?

Every order takes an optional refund address, and it is worth filling in. If the exchange cannot go through — a deposit under the minimum, a pair that stops being quoted, or the one documented case of a flagged deposit where the law allows a return — the deposit goes back to that address, minus what the network charges to send it; we charge nothing for a refund. Without a refund address, a return has to be arranged by hand through support. The order page tells you which situation you are in; nothing is decided silently.
