DAI is a crypto-backed dollar-oriented stablecoin whose canonical and bridged contracts vary by network. Its peg design does not make two network representations interchangeable. The source is a stablecoin contract or recorded native representation, while LINK is classified as token. Check the quoted output rather than assuming a one-dollar source unit fixes the destination amount.
Chainlink is classified as a governance or utility token for this route. LINK uses a network-specific contract asset on Ethereum. The Ethereum side is contract-tracked rather than a native gas balance. LINK arrives as a network-specific contract balance. The wallet still needs the destination native asset before it can transfer or approve LINK later.
Arbitrum is a L2 EVM network in the Ethereum ecosystem. ETH pays source-side network gas on Arbitrum. EVM 0x account address On an Arbitrum source, the Nitro sequencer records L2 execution before Ethereum settlement completes; ETH funds gas and ERC-20 inputs can need approval.
Arbitrum inclusion and its ethereum settlement are distinct from final receipt on Ethereum. The live route, rather than a generic rollup withdrawal assumption, determines the provider path and timing for this direction.
Dai is classified as a stablecoin for this route. DAI uses a network-specific contract asset on Arbitrum. The recorded Arbitrum representation uses 18 decimal places. DAI leaves through its network-specific stablecoin contract and can require approval; the collateral design does not make a bridged DAI contract canonical.
Ethereum is a L1 EVM network in the Ethereum ecosystem. ETH pays destination-side network gas on Ethereum. EVM 0x account address An Ethereum receipt is an L1 native ETH balance or ERC-20 contract event; later token movement can require ETH gas and a new approval for another contract.
Route-specific mistakes include sending on a network other than Arbitrum; using a destination that is not valid for Ethereum; running out of ETH before the source transaction is submitted; selecting a stablecoin by ticker without checking its network contract. On an Arbitrum source, the Nitro sequencer records L2 execution before Ethereum settlement completes; ETH funds gas and ERC-20 inputs can need approval. DAI leaves through its network-specific stablecoin contract and can require approval; the collateral design does not make a bridged DAI contract canonical. An Ethereum receipt is an L1 native ETH balance or ERC-20 contract event; later token movement can require ETH gas and a new approval for another contract. LINK arrives as a network-specific contract balance. The wallet still needs the destination native asset before it can transfer or approve LINK later.
Arbitrum wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public, and Ethereum wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public. For this DAI on Arbitrum to LINK on Ethereum 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.
DAI is a contract representation on Arbitrum with 18 decimals at 0xDA10009cBd5D07dd0CeCc66161FC93D7c9000da1. ETH, not DAI, pays gas unless both symbols are the same. On an Arbitrum source, the Nitro sequencer records L2 execution before Ethereum settlement completes; ETH funds gas and ERC-20 inputs can need approval. DAI leaves through its network-specific stablecoin contract and can require approval; the collateral design does not make a bridged DAI contract canonical.
LINK is a contract representation on Ethereum at 0x514910771af9ca656af840dff83e8264ecf986ca. ETH, not LINK, pays gas unless both symbols are the same. An Ethereum receipt is an L1 native ETH balance or ERC-20 contract event; later token movement can require ETH gas and a new approval for another contract. LINK arrives as a network-specific contract balance. The wallet still needs the destination native asset before it can transfer or approve LINK later.
DAI leaves through its network-specific stablecoin contract and can require approval; the collateral design does not make a bridged DAI contract canonical. On receipt, LINK arrives as a network-specific contract balance. The wallet still needs the destination native asset before it can transfer or approve LINK later.
DAI is the deposited stablecoin input; LINK is the quoted token output. Source allowance or native-spend rules and destination wallet/representation checks are evaluated separately.
DAI leaves through its network-specific stablecoin contract and can require approval; the collateral design does not make a bridged DAI contract canonical. On an Arbitrum source, the Nitro sequencer records L2 execution before Ethereum settlement completes; ETH funds gas and ERC-20 inputs can need approval. An Ethereum receipt is an L1 native ETH balance or ERC-20 contract event; later token movement can require ETH gas and a new approval for another contract. LINK arrives as a network-specific contract balance. The wallet still needs the destination native asset before it can transfer or approve LINK later.
DAI must match its Arbitrum representation. A ticker or target price is not enough to identify a token contract.
ETH is the native gas asset for Arbitrum. On an Arbitrum source, the Nitro sequencer records L2 execution before Ethereum settlement completes; ETH funds gas and ERC-20 inputs can need approval. DAI is token-tracked and can need approval before transfer.
Requirements are checked for the live DAI Arbitrum to LINK Ethereum 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.
