ARB input identity and handling
Arbitrum is classified as a governance or utility token for this route. ARB uses a quote-selected representation. Sending ARB can require a token allowance, while ETH—not ARB—must fund Arbitrum gas. Verify the outbound ARB contract if the source is not Arbitrum.
Receiving stablecoin USDT
USDT is issued through ERC-20, TRC-20, SPL, and other network-specific contracts. The ticker does not determine the token standard, contract, issuer controls, or destination address model. The destination wallet must support the exact selected network representation. The route converts a token source into a stablecoin balance; the destination ticker alone is not a contract check.
USDT output identity and receiving
Tether is classified as a stablecoin for this route. USDT uses a quote-selected representation. The dollar-oriented ticker does not make USDT contracts interchangeable across networks. Confirm whether the output is ERC-20, TRC-20, SPL, or another USDT standard; a wallet supporting one standard may not credit another.
Mistakes specific to ARB to USDT
Verify both asset identities, the selected network, current deposit instructions, and the receiving representation.
ARB source handling versus USDT receipt
Sending ARB can require a token allowance, while ETH—not ARB—must fund Arbitrum gas. Verify the outbound ARB contract if the source is not Arbitrum. Confirm whether the output is ERC-20, TRC-20, SPL, or another USDT standard; a wallet supporting one standard may not credit another.
