USDC (Base) to USDC (Solana)

Base is an Ethereum layer-2 network where sending USDC usually costs much less than on Ethereum mainnet, which makes it a common starting point for moving dollars to Solana. USDC on Base and USDC on Solana are separate tokens on separate blockchains, so you move between them with a cross-chain swap.

You send USDC on Base to a deposit address and receive USDC on Solana at the address you provide. HorseRouter compares partner exchanges and shows an estimate; a partner executes and settles the swap.

Before you swap

  • Send USDC, not USDbC. USDbC is an older bridged version of USDC on Base and is a different token.
  • The Base network fee is paid in ETH on Base, so keep a little ETH on Base in the sending wallet.
  • Check that your wallet is sending on Base, not Ethereum mainnet: many wallets show USDC on several networks.
  • Your receiving address must be a Solana address (no 0x prefix). Quotes are estimates, and transfers cannot be reversed.

How to swap USDC (Base) to USDC (Solana)

  1. Select USDC (Base) as the asset you send and USDC (Solana) as the asset you receive.
  2. Enter the amount to see an estimated quote, the estimated time and the fee.
  3. Paste your receiving Solana address and check it carefully.
  4. Start the swap to get a deposit address, then send the exact asset to it from any wallet or exchange.
  5. A partner executes and settles the swap. The estimate can move within your slippage setting, and transfers cannot be reversed.
