Bridge guides

These answer questions that apply across routes. Anything specific to one pair — fees, minimums, what you receive — lives on that route page instead.

• How to bridge USDT to USDC on Stellar

  Send USDT, receive native USDC on Stellar — and what to set up on the Stellar side first.

• Native USDC vs wrapped USDC

  Why the issuer of the token you receive matters more than the ticker on screen.

• Do I need ETH, XLM or SOL to bridge?

  Gas is a source-chain problem, with one exception on the destination side: Stellar.

• Why is my transfer delayed?

  What is normal, what is not, and the transaction hash you should have ready.

• How to verify the token you received

  Three checks — amount, issuer, recipient — done in a block explorer rather than in a wallet UI.

• Can I bridge directly to an exchange deposit address?

  Sometimes — but check the network, the asset and the memo rule before you do.

• Stellar trustlines and memos explained

  The two Stellar-specific concepts that block more transfers than anything else.

• What happens when a route is unavailable

  Re-route or refund — and why a paused route is disclosed rather than hidden.

• Why a ROZO transfer settles in seconds

  The three clocks in a transfer, which one dominates, and what our measured payout times look like.
