DAI and USDC: two stablecoin ledgers

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. USDC is an issued dollar-oriented stablecoin with canonical, native, and bridged variants across networks. Contract events and issuer controls differ from a network-native gas asset. The route changes both asset identity and network representation; dollar-oriented pricing does not remove issuer controls, liquidity spread, contract, or receiving-network checks.

DAI input identity and handling

Dai is classified as a stablecoin for this route. DAI uses a network-specific contract asset on Linea. The recorded Linea 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.

USDC output identity and receiving

USDC is classified as a stablecoin for this route. USDC uses a network-specific contract asset on Scroll. The recorded Scroll representation uses 6 decimal places. The wallet must support the destination USDC native label or contract. Receipt does not automatically supply the destination network’s gas asset.

Linea to Scroll L2 handoff

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

Linea source execution

Linea is a L2 EVM network in the Ethereum ecosystem. ETH pays source-side network gas on Linea. EVM 0x account address A Linea source is executed on the zkEVM rollup and later proven to Ethereum; L2 inclusion and proof settlement are distinct source milestones.

Scroll destination execution

Scroll is a L2 EVM network in the Ethereum ecosystem. ETH pays destination-side network gas on Scroll. EVM 0x account address A Scroll receipt is an L2 native or contract balance whose proof settlement to Ethereum is a separate milestone; later activity uses ETH on Scroll.

Mistakes specific to DAI Linea to USDC Scroll

Route-specific mistakes include sending on a network other than Linea; using a destination that is not valid for Scroll; running out of ETH before the source transaction is submitted; selecting a stablecoin by ticker without checking its network contract. A Linea source is executed on the zkEVM rollup and later proven to Ethereum; L2 inclusion and proof settlement are distinct source milestones. DAI leaves through its network-specific stablecoin contract and can require approval; the collateral design does not make a bridged DAI contract canonical. A Scroll receipt is an L2 native or contract balance whose proof settlement to Ethereum is a separate milestone; later activity uses ETH on Scroll. 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 DAI → USDC

Linea wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public, and Scroll wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public. For this DAI on Linea to USDC on Scroll 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.
