Swap ARB from Arbitrum One to USDC on Avalanche C-Chain
Swap ARB from Arbitrum One to USDC on Avalanche C-Chain. ARB leaves Arbitrum One and Circle USDC arrives on C-Chain.
Sell 0x912CE59144191C1204E64559FE8253a0e49E6548. Arbiscan, chain id 42161, not Nova. ARB is not gas. Hold ETH. Receive Circle USDC at 0xB97EF9Ef8734C71904D8002F8b6Bc66Dd9c48a6E, six decimals. Snowtrace should show it, not USDC.e and not ARB. C-Chain chain id 43114, not the X-Chain. AVAX pays later fees. Blocks about 2 seconds. That is not a sale schedule.
Governance sold, native USDC bought
No peg between ARB and the dollar
ETH, then AVAX

Frequently asked questions
What is the best way to swap ARB from Arbitrum One to USDC on Avalanche C-Chain?
Sell 0x912CE59144191C1204E64559FE8253a0e49E6548. Arbiscan, chain id 42161, not Nova. XAUConnect compares live routes and lets your own wallet sign.
Will ARB show up on Snowtrace?
Not from this route. You sell 0x912CE59144191C1204E64559FE8253a0e49E6548 on Arbitrum One. Snowtrace should be checked for Circle USDC at 0xB97EF9Ef8734C71904D8002F8b6Bc66Dd9c48a6E. That is not USDC.e. Voting power on the sold amount ends. The chain is the C-Chain, id 43114, not the X-Chain. Confirm that address on the explorer before you sign, and refresh the quote if it has expired.
Is this USDC.e?
No. Native Circle USDC uses 0xB97EF9Ef8734C71904D8002F8b6Bc66Dd9c48a6E, six decimals. The bridged token is a different address. If your app has not migrated, this page is the wrong dollar. About 2 seconds is a C-Chain block, not a sign that the app updated. Confirm that address on the explorer before you sign, and refresh the quote if it has expired.
What pays the ARB approval?
Native ETH on Arbitrum One, sentinel 0xEeeeeEeeeEeEeeEeEeEeeEEEeeeeEeeeeeeeEEeE, chain id 42161. ARB cannot pay it. AVAX cannot pay it. You will want AVAX later on the C-Chain, because USDC does not pay fees there. Nova is the wrong source chain. Confirm that address on the explorer before you sign, and refresh the quote if it has expired.
