How private Arbitrum bridge routing works
Where offered on an exact route, Private Route is intended to reduce an obvious direct association between sending and receiving wallets. Arbitrum activity and the other chain’s activity can still remain public.
Arbitrum data that remains public
Addresses, balances, token movements, contract calls, gas, amounts, and timestamps can remain visible on Arbitrum. Arbitrum is a L2 optimistic rollup network in the Ethereum ecosystem that settles to ethereum. Its Nitro optimistic-rollup design executes through a sequencer and posts compressed transaction data to Ethereum. L2 inclusion and Ethereum settlement are separate milestones, so a source receipt can advance before the rollup state is final on L1.
Nitro sequencer and Ethereum-settlement visibility
Arbitrum source or receipt activity is visible on the Nitro L2 before compressed data settles to Ethereum; sequencer inclusion and L1 settlement can expose separate timing signals.
Arbitrum gas and address checks
ETH is the native gas asset for Arbitrum. EVM 0x account address Confirm Arbitrum, its evm 0x account address, and the exact asset representation before sending. Keep ETH available for network gas when a transaction is required.
Route-specific availability
18 bridge routes involving Arbitrum is available. Private Route is checked separately for the selected assets, networks, amount, and current conditions in the live flow.
Identity and custody requirements
Private Route, no KYC, no account, no wallet connection, and non-custodial are separate properties. This page makes no global promise about the provider requirements or custody model of every exact route.
Choose an exact direction
Outgoing and incoming routes have different source gas, destination address, confirmation, asset representation, and public-record considerations. Open an exact route below rather than assuming both directions behave the same way.
