WETH input identity and handling
WETH is classified as a wrapped asset for this route. WETH uses a wrapped contract asset on Scroll. The recorded Scroll representation uses 18 decimal places. WETH leaves through a wrapper contract and needs native chain gas. A WETH token balance cannot pay the gas required to submit its own transfer.
Receiving stablecoin DAI
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 destination wallet must support the exact Arbitrum representation. The route converts a token source into a stablecoin balance; the destination ticker alone is not a contract check.
Scroll to Arbitrum L2 handoff
This route crosses two L2 execution environments. Scroll settles to ethereum, while Arbitrum settles to ethereum; each side keeps its own gas balance, token contracts, transaction hash, and settlement progress.
DAI output identity and receiving
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. The receiving wallet must recognize the exact destination DAI contract. Peg intent does not guarantee that a bridged representation has the same liquidity or issuer path.
Arbitrum destination execution
Arbitrum is a L2 EVM network in the Ethereum ecosystem. ETH pays destination-side network gas on Arbitrum. EVM 0x account address An Arbitrum receipt appears on the Nitro L2 ledger under an Arbitrum token contract or native ETH balance; later spending needs Arbitrum ETH while L1 settlement continues separately.
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.
WETH unwrap or exchange input check
WETH is a contract wrapper for ETH. It can be transferred as a token but cannot replace the native gas balance required by the network. On this route WETH is the source token on Scroll. Its token balance, approvals, and contract transfer behavior are separate from the native coin used for network gas.
Mistakes specific to WETH Scroll to DAI Arbitrum
Route-specific mistakes include sending on a network other than Scroll; using a destination that is not valid for Arbitrum; running out of ETH before the source transaction is submitted; selecting a stablecoin by ticker without checking its network contract; treating a wrapped token as the native gas asset. A Scroll source executes in the zkEVM and is later included in a proof batch to Ethereum; Scroll contract identity must be verified independently. WETH leaves through a wrapper contract and needs native chain gas. A WETH token balance cannot pay the gas required to submit its own transfer.
