Swap USDC from BNB Chain to ETH on Ethereum
Swap USDC from BNB Chain to ETH on Ethereum. You send Binance-Peg USDC on BNB Chain and you receive native ETH on Ethereum, the coin that pays gas there.
Approve 0x8AC76a51cc950d9822D68b83fE1Ad97B32Cd580d. BscScan shows that 18-decimal peg on chain id 56. Gas for the approval is BNB, and blocks are about 3 seconds. The Ethereum side uses 0xEeeeeEeeeEeEeeEeEeEeeEEEeeeeEeeeeeeeEEeE, the marker for the gas coin. On Ethereum that coin is ETH, not BNB and not WETH. Etherscan shows the native balance. Chain id 1. Blocks there are about 12 seconds.

Frequently asked questions
What is the best way to swap USDC from BNB Chain to ETH on Ethereum?
Approve 0x8AC76a51cc950d9822D68b83fE1Ad97B32Cd580d. BscScan shows that 18-decimal peg on chain id 56. XAUConnect compares live routes and lets your own wallet sign.
Does the long 0xEeee address mean I am sending BNB?
On this page, no. The marker 0xEeeeeEeeeEeEeeEeEeEeeEEEeeeeEeeeeeeeEEeE is the destination, and on Ethereum it means native ETH. The token you send is Binance-Peg USDC, 0x8AC76a51cc950d9822D68b83fE1Ad97B32Cd580d, which you approve on BscScan. Gas for that approval is BNB. Etherscan should later show ETH, not a token contract.
Will I get WETH that I still have to unwrap?
No. This route pays native ETH, the gas coin on chain id 1. WETH is a different contract and a different page. You will not sign an unwrap after arrival. You still pay BNB on the way out. If you specifically need the WETH contract in a pool, leave this quote and open the WETH route.
Is the amount of ETH fixed when BNB Chain confirms quickly?
No. Blocks near 3 seconds are only the source chain. ETH can move while the bridge is open, and this page does not promise a price or a completion time. Judge the minimum ETH on the quote. If it is too small for the USDC you are selling, do not sign.
