Converting stablecoin DAI into ETH

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 ETH is classified as native-asset. Check the quoted output rather than assuming a one-dollar source unit fixes the destination amount.

ETH output identity and receiving

Ethereum is classified as a native asset for this route. ETH uses a native asset on Linea. The recorded Linea representation uses 18 decimal places. Determine whether ETH arrives as native destination gas or as a tokenized representation. Only the native balance can directly pay that network’s fees.

Scroll source 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.

Scroll to Linea L2 handoff

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

DAI input identity and handling

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

Linea destination execution

Linea is a L2 EVM network in the Ethereum ecosystem. ETH pays destination-side network gas on Linea. EVM 0x account address A Linea receipt is recorded on the zkEVM L2 before the related proof settles to Ethereum; later activity needs ETH on Linea and the Linea token contract.

Mistakes specific to DAI Scroll to ETH Linea

Route-specific mistakes include sending on a network other than Scroll; using a destination that is not valid for Linea; 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. DAI leaves through its network-specific stablecoin contract and can require approval; the collateral design does not make a bridged DAI contract canonical. A Linea receipt is recorded on the zkEVM L2 before the related proof settles to Ethereum; later activity needs ETH on Linea and the Linea token contract. Determine whether ETH arrives as native destination gas or as a tokenized representation. Only the native balance can directly pay that network’s fees.

Private Route for DAI → ETH

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

A Scroll source executes in the zkEVM and is later included in a proof batch to Ethereum; Scroll contract identity must be verified independently. DAI leaves through its network-specific stablecoin contract and can require approval; the collateral design does not make a bridged DAI contract canonical.

What exactly arrives on Linea as ETH?

ETH is listed as the native representation on Linea; ETH is used for network gas. A Linea receipt is recorded on the zkEVM L2 before the related proof settles to Ethereum; later activity needs ETH on Linea and the Linea token contract. Determine whether ETH arrives as native destination gas or as a tokenized representation. Only the native balance can directly pay that network’s fees.

Why does the DAI to ETH direction matter?

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, Determine whether ETH arrives as native destination gas or as a tokenized representation. Only the native balance can directly pay that network’s fees.

What changes between the source and destination asset roles?

DAI is the deposited stablecoin input; ETH is the quoted native-asset output. Source allowance or native-spend rules and destination wallet/representation checks are evaluated separately.

What should be matched before sending DAI?

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 source executes in the zkEVM and is later included in a proof batch to Ethereum; Scroll contract identity must be verified independently. A Linea receipt is recorded on the zkEVM L2 before the related proof settles to Ethereum; later activity needs ETH on Linea and the Linea token contract. Determine whether ETH arrives as native destination gas or as a tokenized representation. Only the native balance can directly pay that network’s fees.

Which stablecoin contract must this route match?

DAI must match its Scroll representation. A ticker or target price is not enough to identify a token contract.

What funds the Scroll source transaction?

ETH is the native gas asset for Scroll. A Scroll source executes in the zkEVM and is later included in a proof batch to Ethereum; Scroll contract identity must be verified independently. DAI is token-tracked and can need approval before transfer.
