What you need to know

USDC representation on both sides

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. The wallet must support the destination USDC native label or contract. Receipt does not automatically supply the destination network’s gas asset. The same stablecoin ticker does not make the two network records or contracts interchangeable.

ETH source gas and ETH destination readiness

A Scroll source executes in the zkEVM and is later included in a proof batch to Ethereum; Scroll contract identity must be verified independently. A zkSync Era receipt belongs to EraVM account state and uses ETH for later fees; proof settlement to Ethereum remains distinct from L2 delivery.

Scroll to zkSync Era L2 handoff

This route crosses two L2 execution environments. Scroll settles to ethereum, while zkSync Era settles to ethereum; each side keeps its own gas balance, token contracts, transaction hash, and settlement progress.

Scroll deposit-side execution

Scroll is a L2 EVM network in the Ethereum ecosystem. ETH pays source-side network gas on Scroll. EVM 0x account address A Scroll source executes in the zkEVM and is later included in a proof batch to Ethereum; Scroll contract identity must be verified independently.

zkSync Era receipt-side execution

zkSync Era is a L2 EVM network in the Ethereum ecosystem. ETH pays destination-side network gas on zkSync Era. EVM 0x account address A zkSync Era receipt belongs to EraVM account state and uses ETH for later fees; proof settlement to Ethereum remains distinct from L2 delivery.

Scroll to zkSync Era bridge mistakes

Route-specific mistakes include sending on a network other than Scroll; using a destination that is not valid for zkSync Era; running out of ETH before the source transaction is submitted; selecting a stablecoin by ticker without checking its network contract. A Scroll source executes in the zkEVM and is later included in a proof batch to Ethereum; Scroll contract identity must be verified independently. 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. A zkSync Era receipt belongs to EraVM account state and uses ETH for later fees; proof settlement to Ethereum remains distinct from L2 delivery. The wallet must support the destination USDC native label or contract. Receipt does not automatically supply the destination network’s gas asset.

Private Route for USDC → USDC

Scroll wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public, and ZKsync Era wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public. For this USDC on Scroll to USDC on ZKsync Era path, Private Route is intended to reduce the direct visible relationship between activity around the source-side EVM 0x account address and destination-side EVM 0x account address; it does not hide either chain's public records.

Scroll to ZKsync Era FAQs

What USDC representation leaves Scroll?

USDC is a contract representation on Scroll with 6 decimals at 0x06eFdBFf2a14a7c8E15944D1F4A48F9F95F663A4. ETH, not USDC, pays gas unless both symbols are the same. A Scroll source executes in the zkEVM and is later included in a proof batch to Ethereum; Scroll contract identity must be verified independently. 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 zkSync Era?

USDC is a contract representation on zkSync Era at 0x1d17cbcf0d6d143135ae902365d2e5e2a16538d4. ETH, not USDC, pays gas unless both symbols are the same. A zkSync Era receipt belongs to EraVM account state and uses ETH for later fees; proof settlement to Ethereum remains distinct from L2 delivery. 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 Scroll source executes in the zkEVM and is later included in a proof batch to Ethereum; Scroll contract identity must be verified independently. A zkSync Era receipt belongs to EraVM account state and uses ETH for later fees; proof settlement to Ethereum remains distinct from L2 delivery. 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 Scroll address merely because a wallet displays both networks.

What wrong-direction mistake can prevent delivery?

Sending on a network other than Scroll, selecting a representation not listed by the quote, or entering an address invalid for zkSync Era can prevent normal detection or receipt.

Can I bridge USDC from Scroll to ZKsync Era without KYC?

Requirements are checked for the live USDC Scroll to ZKsync Era 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.
