Swap USDC from Solana to BNB on BNB Chain
Swap USDC from Solana to BNB on BNB Chain. Circle's SPL mint leaves Solana, and native BNB is what can arrive to pay gas on chain id 56.
You send EPjFWdd5AufqSSqeM2qN1xzybapC8G4wEGGkZwyTDt1v. Phantom signs, Solscan records it, and there is no ERC-20 approval. BNB arrives as 0xEeeeeEeeeEeEeeEeEeEeeEEEeeeeEeeeeeeeEEeE, the native gas sentinel, on BNB Chain. BscScan shows a native balance, not a token import of that sentinel. Blocks are about 3 seconds. This is not the pegged ETH token at 0x2170Ed0880ac9A755fd29B2688956BD959F933F8, and it is not Ethereum mainnet ETH.

You are buying the fee coin, not a pegged ether
About 3 seconds is a block, not a delivery
Keep SOL even though you are trying to obtain BNB
A dollar peg is the better arrival when gas is not the gap

Frequently asked questions
What is the best way to swap USDC from Solana to BNB on BNB Chain?
You send EPjFWdd5AufqSSqeM2qN1xzybapC8G4wEGGkZwyTDt1v. Phantom signs, Solscan records it, and there is no ERC-20 approval.
Is the BNB from this route the pegged ETH token?
No. Native BNB arrives, quoted as 0xEeeeeEeeeEeEeeEeEeEeeEEEeeeeEeeeeeeeEEeE on chain id 56. The pegged ETH token is 0x2170Ed0880ac9A755fd29B2688956BD959F933F8 and cannot pay gas. Circle's mint left Solana. Check the BNB line on BscScan. About 3 second blocks are not a bridge schedule. Switch the wallet to the destination chain before you judge the balance.
Will this BNB pay Ethereum mainnet fees?
No. It arrives on BNB Chain. Ethereum is chain id 1, about 12 second blocks, explorer Etherscan, and its fee coin is ETH. Phantom cannot hold the BNB, and MetaMask must be on chain id 56 to see it. SOL paid the source side. There is no ERC-20 approval on the Solana mint.
What if I needed a dollar on BNB Chain instead?
Use a USDT or USDC route. Those are pegged ERC-20s, not native BNB. This page is wrong when the next step is a stablecoin transfer rather than a fee. Keep native SOL so Phantom can sign EPjFWdd5AufqSSqeM2qN1xzybapC8G4wEGGkZwyTDt1v, and read the minimum BNB before you accept the price.
