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 Ethereum. The Ethereum side is contract-tracked rather than a native gas balance. 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 Ethereum. 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.
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 zkSync Era; 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. 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. 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. 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 Ethereum wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public. For this USDT on zkSync Era to ARB 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.
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 Ethereum at 0xb50721bcf8d664c30412cfbc6cf7a15145234ad1. ETH, not ARB, 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. 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. 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. 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 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.
