USDC to ETH FAQ
Do I need to connect a Base wallet?
No. The exchange issues a deposit address on Base and you send USDC to it from Coinbase Wallet, MetaMask, Rabby, Ledger or an exchange withdrawal. Nothing is signed in the browser.
How long does USDC on Base to ETH on Arbitrum take?
Usually a few minutes from the moment your USDC deposit confirms. The quote shows an ETA for this exact route before you send anything.
Which Arbitrum address can receive the ETH?
Any Arbitrum address, a standard 0x… EVM address. Your Ethereum address is also your Arbitrum address. If you pay out to an exchange, check that it accepts Arbitrum One deposits for this asset.
Do I get real ETH?
Yes. The payout is an ordinary Arbitrum transaction to your address. It is not a wrapped token on another network and there is no claim step.
What happens if the swap fails after I send USDC?
The USDC is refunded on Base and the order page shows the refund status. A failed route does not leave funds stuck halfway.
