Swap USDT from Polygon to ETH on Arbitrum One
Swap USDT from Polygon to ETH on Arbitrum One. Tether USDT leaves Polygon. Native ETH is what can arrive on Arbitrum One. You sell a dollar token for the gas coin on chain id 42161, which is not your Ethereum mainnet ETH.
Sell 0xc2132D05D31c914a87C6611C10748AEb04B58e8F. Buy 0xEeeeeEeeeEeEeeEeEeEeeEEEeeeeEeeeeeeeEEeE. On this destination that label is ETH, not WETH at 0x82aF49447D8a07e3bd95BD0d56f35241523fBab1. Polygonscan shows Tether. Arbiscan shows ETH. Not Nova. How cross-chain bridges work explains the separate ETH balances.
The label is not a token approval
Mainnet is not the credit
You leave Tether
Polygon still takes POL

Frequently asked questions
What is the best way to swap USDT from Polygon to ETH on Arbitrum One?
Sell 0xc2132D05D31c914a87C6611C10748AEb04B58e8F. Buy 0xEeeeeEeeeEeEeeEeEeEeeEEEeeeeEeeeeeeeEEeE. XAUConnect compares live routes and lets your own wallet sign.
Is Arbitrum ETH the same balance as Ethereum ETH?
No. Both use the label 0xEeeeeEeeeEeEeeEeEeEeeEEEeeeeEeeeeeeeEEeE, and each chain defines its own. This credit is on Arbitrum One, chain id 42161, visible on Arbiscan. Ethereum is chain id 1. You sold Polygon Tether at 0xc2132D05D31c914a87C6611C10748AEb04B58e8F. Nova will not show the credit. Chain id 42161 is Arbitrum One, and the explorers do not merge.
Will I receive WETH if that is what pools use?
Not from this quote. WETH is 0x82aF49447D8a07e3bd95BD0d56f35241523fBab1. ETH is not WETH. Sign here only if native gas is what you want. Wrapping afterward spends a little of that ETH. Arbiscan should show a native balance first. Do not assume the pool's favorite wrapper is what this quote pays.
What if the quote floor in ETH looks poor?
Do not sign it. USDT against ETH can move. Request a new quote. No finish time is given for the bridge. About 2 seconds is only Polygon. The destination chain is Arbitrum One, not Nova, and not Ethereum mainnet. Refresh the quote if the ETH floor is weaker than you will accept.
