Move from a Solana account into Arbitrum EVM

Solana uses Solana accounts and SOL for source fees, while Arbitrum uses an EVM 0x account and ETH for destination gas. Confirm the destination token contract and do not paste a Solana address into the EVM destination field. WETH is read from its Solana mint or native account, while SOL arrives at the quoted Arbitrum native or contract representation.

WETH mint and SOL fee checks

Base58-encoded Solana account address SOL is the native gas asset for Solana. A Solana source signs over accounts or token accounts, identifies SPL assets by mint, and spends SOL for transaction fees. 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. The mint/account selected by the quote must match the source wallet balance.

Arbitrum contract and 0x receiving checks

EVM 0x account address ETH is the native gas asset for Arbitrum. 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. Native SOL receipt uses a Solana address and can fund later fees; wrapped SOL uses an SPL token account and tokenized SOL elsewhere is not native. A Solana address cannot receive this EVM-side output.

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 Solana. Its token balance, approvals, and contract transfer behavior are separate from the native coin used for network gas.

Mistakes specific to WETH Solana to SOL Arbitrum

Route-specific mistakes include sending on a network other than Solana; using a destination that is not valid for Arbitrum; running out of SOL before the source transaction is submitted; assuming solana and evm addresses are interchangeable; treating a wrapped token as the native gas asset. A Solana source signs over accounts or token accounts, identifies SPL assets by mint, and spends SOL for transaction fees. 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. 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. Native SOL receipt uses a Solana address and can fund later fees; wrapped SOL uses an SPL token account and tokenized SOL elsewhere is not native.

Private Route for WETH → SOL

Solana account, token, program, signature, and fee activity remain public, and Arbitrum wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public. For this WETH on Solana to SOL on Arbitrum path, Private Route is intended to reduce the direct visible relationship between activity around the source-side Base58-encoded Solana account address and destination-side EVM 0x account address; it does not hide either chain's public records.
