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 source is a stablecoin contract or recorded native representation, while ARB is classified as token. Check the quoted output rather than assuming a one-dollar source unit fixes the destination amount.
Arbitrum is classified as a governance or utility token for this route. ARB uses a network-specific contract asset on BNB Chain. The recorded BNB Chain representation uses 18 decimal places. A receiving wallet should show the exact ARB contract on the destination. Receipt does not fund ETH gas for later token movement.
zkSync Era is a L2 EVM network in the Ethereum ecosystem. ETH pays source-side network gas on zkSync Era. EVM 0x account address A zkSync Era source executes in EraVM with native account-abstraction behavior and ETH fees before proof settlement to Ethereum.
zkSync Era inclusion and its ethereum settlement are distinct from final receipt on BNB Chain. The live route, rather than a generic rollup withdrawal assumption, determines the provider path and timing for this direction.
Tether is classified as a stablecoin for this route. USDT uses a network-specific contract asset on zkSync Era. The recorded zkSync Era representation uses 6 decimal places. The input must match the selected ERC-20, TRC-20, SPL, or other USDT representation; each standard has different address, approval, and fee behavior.
BNB Chain is a L1 EVM network in the BNB Chain ecosystem. BNB pays destination-side network gas on BNB Chain. EVM 0x account address A BNB Smart Chain receipt uses the BEP-20 contract or native BNB balance selected by the route; later token movement needs BNB gas.
Route-specific mistakes include sending on a network other than zkSync Era; using a destination that is not valid for BNB Chain; running out of ETH before the source transaction is submitted; selecting a stablecoin by ticker without checking its network contract. A zkSync Era source executes in EraVM with native account-abstraction behavior and ETH fees before proof settlement to Ethereum. The input must match the selected ERC-20, TRC-20, SPL, or other USDT representation; each standard has different address, approval, and fee behavior. A BNB Smart Chain receipt uses the BEP-20 contract or native BNB balance selected by the route; later token movement needs BNB gas. A receiving wallet should show the exact ARB contract on the destination. Receipt does not fund ETH gas for later token movement.
zkSync Era wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public, and BNB Chain wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public. For this USDT on zkSync Era to ARB on BNB Chain 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.
USDT is a contract representation on zkSync Era with 6 decimals at 0x493257fD37EDB34451f62EDf8D2a0C418852bA4C. ETH, not USDT, pays gas unless both symbols are the same. A zkSync Era source executes in EraVM with native account-abstraction behavior and ETH fees before proof settlement to Ethereum. The input must match the selected ERC-20, TRC-20, SPL, or other USDT representation; each standard has different address, approval, and fee behavior.
ARB is a contract representation on BNB Chain with 18 decimals at 0x0acdb582C1d5512Ea31fD64b9C07882CB31E494D. BNB, not ARB, pays gas unless both symbols are the same. A BNB Smart Chain receipt uses the BEP-20 contract or native BNB balance selected by the route; later token movement needs BNB gas. A receiving wallet should show the exact ARB contract on the destination. Receipt does not fund ETH gas for later token movement.
The input must match the selected ERC-20, TRC-20, SPL, or other USDT representation; each standard has different address, approval, and fee behavior. On receipt, A receiving wallet should show the exact ARB contract on the destination. Receipt does not fund ETH gas for later token movement.
USDT is the deposited stablecoin input; ARB is the quoted token output. Source allowance or native-spend rules and destination wallet/representation checks are evaluated separately.
The input must match the selected ERC-20, TRC-20, SPL, or other USDT representation; each standard has different address, approval, and fee behavior. A zkSync Era source executes in EraVM with native account-abstraction behavior and ETH fees before proof settlement to Ethereum. A BNB Smart Chain receipt uses the BEP-20 contract or native BNB balance selected by the route; later token movement needs BNB gas. A receiving wallet should show the exact ARB contract on the destination. Receipt does not fund ETH gas for later token movement.
USDT must match its zkSync Era representation. A ticker or target price is not enough to identify a token contract.
ETH is the native gas asset for zkSync Era. A zkSync Era source executes in EraVM with native account-abstraction behavior and ETH fees before proof settlement to Ethereum. USDT is token-tracked and can need approval before transfer.
Requirements are checked for the live USDT zkSync to ARB BSC 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.
