How the USDC to DAI route works
By default both sides of this pair settle on Ethereum, so this route does not cross networks. You still pay Ethereum network gas to move the funds, plus the service fee.
- You send
- this route uses USDC on Ethereum. You sign the transaction on Ethereum, so that network's gas fee applies.
- You receive
- this route uses DAI on Ethereum. DAI arrives at an address you control on Ethereum.
USD Coin and DAI both settle on Ethereum by default. Assets issued on more than one network can be routed on a different chain. You pay network gas on Ethereum plus a service fee of roughly 10-15 basis points; swaps under $10 have no service fee. Settlement time depends on how quickly each network confirms, and an estimate is shown before you confirm.
