Swap WETH from Polygon to DAI on Ethereum

Swap WETH from Polygon to DAI on Ethereum. Polygon WETH leaves Polygon. Maker DAI is what can arrive on Ethereum. Ether exposure becomes Maker's dollar token, on a chain that still charges ETH for gas.

Debit 0x7ceB23fD6bC0adD59E62ac25578270cFf1b9f619. Credit 0x6B175474E89094C44Da98b954EedeAC495271d0F. DAI is not Circle and not Tether. Polygonscan is the WETH record. Etherscan is the DAI record. Chain id 1 blocks in about 12 seconds. See Ethereum for the network that will hold the Maker token.

Maker is the issuer on purpose

If the instruction says USDC, you want 0xA0b86991c6218b36c1d19D4a2e9Eb0cE3606eB48. If it says USDT, you want 0xdAC17F958D2ee523a2206206994597C13D831ec7. DAI at 0x6B175474E89094C44Da98b954EedeAC495271d0F can trade off a dollar. This route is wrong for those other tickers.

Do not send Ethereum WETH into this

Mainnet WETH at 0xC02aaA39b223FE8D0A0e5C4F27eAD9083C756Cc2 lives on chain id 1. This page sells the Polygon contract only. A wallet left on Ethereum will approve the wrong network. ETH is not WETH on either chain.

POL in, ETH after

Source fees are POL on chain id 137. Destination transfers of DAI need ETH. Neither side of the trade is the gas coin. The native label 0xEeeeeEeeeEeEeeEeEeEeeEEEeeeeEeeeeeeeEEeE is not what you buy or sell here.

Quote floor, not a one-for-one story

WETH against DAI moves. The minimum on the quote is the amount you accept. Refresh if it expires. No finish time is stated for the bridge. Polygon's 2 second blocks only describe chain id 137.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best way to swap WETH from Polygon to DAI on Ethereum?

Debit 0x7ceB23fD6bC0adD59E62ac25578270cFf1b9f619. Credit 0x6B175474E89094C44Da98b954EedeAC495271d0F. XAUConnect compares live routes and lets your own wallet sign.

Is DAI from Circle?

No. Circle issues USDC. DAI is Maker's token at 0x6B175474E89094C44Da98b954EedeAC495271d0F on Ethereum. This route sells Polygon WETH at 0x7ceB23fD6bC0adD59E62ac25578270cFf1b9f619. Etherscan should show Maker's contract, not a USDC balance. If your form says Circle, switch routes. Circle USDC is a different contract, a different issuer, and the wrong credit.

Will Polygonscan show the DAI?

No. Polygonscan shows WETH leaving chain id 137 and POL spent as gas. Etherscan shows DAI on chain id 1. The explorers do not merge. About 12 second Ethereum blocks are not the bridge clock. You still need ETH later to move the DAI. Keep a little ETH on mainnet.

What if the wallet holds WETH on Ethereum already?

Then you do not need this route to get a Polygon debit. Ethereum WETH is 0xC02aaA39b223FE8D0A0e5C4F27eAD9083C756Cc2. This page spends the Polygon token. Signing on the wrong chain id approves an unrelated contract. Stay on 137 until the WETH debit is the one you mean. Check the network badge first.
