What USDC representation leaves Linea?
USDC is a contract representation on Linea with 6 decimals at 0x176211869cA2b568f2A7D4EE941E073a821EE1ff. ETH, not USDC, pays gas unless both symbols are the same. A Linea source is executed on the zkEVM rollup and later proven to Ethereum; L2 inclusion and proof settlement are distinct source milestones. The source wallet sends the exact USDC native or contract representation selected by the route; contract USDC can require approval and the chain’s native gas asset.
What USDC representation arrives on Base?
USDC is a contract representation on Base at 0x833589fcd6edb6e08f4c7c32d4f71b54bda02913. ETH, not USDC, pays gas unless both symbols are the same. A Base receipt belongs to the Base L2 balance and token contract, not Ethereum L1; later activity needs ETH specifically on Base. The wallet must support the destination USDC native label or contract. Receipt does not automatically supply the destination network’s gas asset.
Does the same USDC ticker guarantee the same ledger form?
No. This bridge keeps the asset intent while moving between a USDC contract token and a USDC contract token. Match the source and output details in the live quote.
Which gas balances matter for this bridge?
A Linea source is executed on the zkEVM rollup and later proven to Ethereum; L2 inclusion and proof settlement are distinct source milestones. A Base receipt belongs to the Base L2 balance and token contract, not Ethereum L1; later activity needs ETH specifically on Base. The bridge output does not automatically fund every later gas need.
What destination address should be used?
EVM 0x account address Do not substitute a Linea address merely because a wallet displays both networks.
What wrong-direction mistake can prevent delivery?
Sending on a network other than Linea, selecting a representation not listed by the quote, or entering an address invalid for Base can prevent normal detection or receipt.
Can I bridge USDC from Linea to Base without KYC?
Requirements are checked for the live USDC Linea to Base quote. Verification requirements can depend on the provider, amount, jurisdiction, and current route. Sasquatch does not verify this route as universally no-KYC; check the live flow before continuing.
