Swap ARB from Arbitrum One to USDT on Solana

Swap ARB from Arbitrum One to USDT on Solana. ARB leaves Arbitrum One and SPL USDT arrives here on Solana.

Spend 0x912CE59144191C1204E64559FE8253a0e49E6548. Arbiscan, chain id 42161, not Nova. Gas is ETH, not ARB. Receive Es9vMFrzaCERmJfrF4H2FYD4KCoNkY11McCe8BenwNYB. Solscan is the explorer for that Tether mint. Phantom is the wallet. No ERC-20 approval on Solana. No 0x recipient. Slots near 400 milliseconds are not a promise that the price still holds.

Diagram for Swap ARB from Arbitrum One to USDT on Solana
ARB leaves Arbitrum One. USDT is what can arrive on Solana.

Tether's mint is the whole delivery

Es9vMFrzaCERmJfrF4H2FYD4KCoNkY11McCe8BenwNYB is what to verify. It is not an ARB token on Solana and not an ERC-20 on Ethereum. Exchange pages that request ERC-20 USDT are the wrong instructions. The page has to say Solana, and the mint has to match Solscan. If you send a governance-token story to that deposit, you will be describing a sale that already happened.

Voting weight is the cost

Unsold ARB on chain id 42161 can still vote. Sold ARB cannot, and it does not reappear in Phantom under another ticker that still votes. The minimum USDT is only a price. Refresh it. Eighteen decimals to a six-decimal mint. Use the quote's human amount.

Permission on one side only

Approve 0x912CE59144191C1204E64559FE8253a0e49E6548 with ETH if asked. Do not look for that pattern in Phantom. Solana uses SPL. Keep a little native SOL for fees. This output is not wrapped SOL, so it will not fund those fees by being unwrapped.

Wrong if the ticker ARB matters on the far side

Stop if you are trying to move the governance token. Stop for Circle's USDC mint. Stop for So111. Stop for Nova. Stop if the coins in the wallet are WETH or ETH rather than ARB. The spend address is the test. Before you sign, compare 0x912CE59144191C1204E64559FE8253a0e49E6548 with Es9vMFrzaCERmJfrF4H2FYD4KCoNkY11McCe8BenwNYB on their explorers and stop if either address on the quote differs. Do not treat a block interval on either chain as a promise for when the credit appears. Sign only on the source chain id named in this article, with the wallet network checked.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best way to swap ARB from Arbitrum One to USDT on Solana?

Spend 0x912CE59144191C1204E64559FE8253a0e49E6548. Arbiscan, chain id 42161, not Nova. XAUConnect compares live routes and lets your own wallet sign.

Does ARB show up on Solscan after this swap?

Not as ARB. You sell 0x912CE59144191C1204E64559FE8253a0e49E6548 on Arbitrum One. Solscan should be checked for Es9vMFrzaCERmJfrF4H2FYD4KCoNkY11McCe8BenwNYB, Tether's SPL mint, in a Phantom account. There is no ERC-20 approval on Solana. A 0x address cannot hold the mint. Confirm that address on the explorer before you sign, and refresh the quote if it has expired.

Is this USDT the Ethereum contract?

No. Ethereum Tether is 0xdAC17F958D2ee523a2206206994597C13D831ec7. The Solana mint is the Es9v address. You are selling ARB, not USDT, on the source. A slot near 400 milliseconds does not make those contracts equivalent. Read the minimum in whole tokens. Confirm that address on the explorer before you sign, and refresh the quote if it has expired.

What two gas balances do I need?

ETH on Arbitrum One to approve ARB, and native SOL in Phantom to use the USDT later. Neither is the output. The sentinel 0xEeeeeEeeeEeEeeEeEeEeeEEEeeeeEeeeeeeeEEeE is only the source fee. Wrapped SOL is a different mint. Nova is not chain id 42161. Confirm that address on the explorer before you sign, and refresh the quote if it has expired.
