Bridge to Arc
The easiest way to bridge to Arc is through a cross-chain bridge that connects Arc with other blockchain networks. With Defiway, users can move USDC and USDT between Arc and 11 supported networks from one interface. Arc is an open Layer 1 blockchain developed by Circle and purpose-built for stablecoin payments, financial markets, and onchain applications. The network is EVM-compatible and uses USDC for transaction fees, providing predictable dollar-denominated gas costs. With Defiway, you can bridge USDC and USDT to and from Arc in just a few steps.

Bridging allows you to transfer crypto assets between separate blockchain networks. With Defiway, you can move USDC and USDT between Arc and 11 supported networks without manually interacting with multiple protocols. Arc is EVM-compatible, making it accessible through familiar Ethereum wallets and tooling. The network uses USDC for gas, so users don't need to hold a separate native token to pay transaction fees. Use these three steps to bridge to Arc:
-
Step 1
Visit our Bridge page and pick the tokens and network
-
Step 2
Select the “Connect Wallet” to link the wallet to the bridging tool
-
Step 3
Select Arc as the destination network, enter the amount of USDC or USDT you want to bridge, review the transaction details, and confirm the transfer, to bridge assets from Arc, simply select Arc as the source network and choose one of the supported destination networks
Arc Bridging Fees:
What Are They?
Defiway charges a 0.2% fee for cross-chain bridge transactions. The total transaction cost can also depend on the source network, current network conditions, and the selected route. Arc itself uses USDC for network transaction fees instead of a separate volatile native gas token. This makes transaction costs easier to understand and more predictable in dollar terms. Before confirming a transfer, Defiway displays the relevant transaction details so you can review the route and costs.

All Bridges to ArcWhat is Arc
Arc is an open Layer 1 blockchain developed by Circle and designed specifically for stablecoin payments, financial markets, real-time money movement, and programmable financial applications. Unlike many blockchains that require users to hold a separate native token for transaction fees, Arc uses USDC as its gas asset. This means transaction fees are denominated in dollars, making costs easier to understand and more predictable. Arc is EVM-compatible, allowing developers and users to work with familiar Ethereum-based wallets, smart contracts, and development tools. The network is designed around stablecoin-based financial activity, making it particularly suited to payments, trading, DeFi, and other applications that benefit from fast settlement and predictable transaction costs.
Final Thoughts
Arc brings stablecoins directly into the core infrastructure of the network. Its EVM compatibility provides access to familiar wallets and applications, while USDC-based gas removes the need to acquire a separate native token simply to pay transaction fees. With Defiway, users can bridge USDC and USDT between Arc and 11 supported networks: Ethereum, BNB Chain, TRON, Polygon, Arbitrum, Base, Optimism, Linea, TON, Solana, and Robinhood Chain. Select your source network, connect your wallet, choose Arc as the destination, enter the amount, review the transaction details, and confirm the transfer. For transfers from Arc, select Arc as the source network and choose your destination network. Always verify the selected network, token, destination address, and transaction details before confirming a cross-chain transfer.

What is a Cross-Chain Bridge?
A cross-chain bridge allows users to transfer supported crypto assets between different blockchain networks. Instead of keeping an asset limited to a single blockchain, a bridge provides infrastructure for moving supported assets between otherwise separate networks. -
What kind of wallets can I use to interact with Defiway Bridge?
There’re plenty of options to choose from! We support every EVM-compatible wallet, as well as 1 TRX-compatible wallet. -
How secure is Defiway Cross-Chain Bridge?
Defiway uses validator-based infrastructure and multisignature technology for cross-chain transfers. Users should still verify all transaction details before confirming a transfer. -
Are there any risks involved in using cross-chain bridges?
Cross-chain transfers involve multiple blockchain networks and supporting infrastructure, so they are not completely risk-free. Users should always check the selected token, source and destination networks, destination address, and transaction details before transferring funds. -
How quickly are funds transferred?
Transfer time depends on the source network, destination network, and current network conditions. Defiway is designed for fast cross-chain transfers, but actual transaction times can vary. -
What if I have a question, issue, or problem?
If you experience an issue with a transaction or have a question about Defiway Bridge, contact the Defiway support team through the official support channels. Please reach out to us via the website form or [email protected] email. -
What are the benefits of using Defiway Cross-Chain Bridge?
Defiway provides a single interface for moving supported assets across multiple blockchain ecosystems, including both EVM and non-EVM networks. For Arc, users can bridge USDC and USDT between Arc and 11 supported networks without switching between multiple bridge interfaces. -
Can All Cryptocurrencies Be Transferred Using Defiway Crypto Bridges?
Currently we support only leading cryptocurrencies, such as ETH, USDT, USDC, USD1, BTC. You can access the list of exact bridge pairs on this page. -
What's the difference between a cross-chain bridge and a traditional blockchain transaction?
A traditional blockchain transaction moves assets within the same blockchain network. A cross-chain bridge enables supported assets to move between different blockchain networks, such as transferring USDC from Ethereum to Arc or from Arc to Solana. -
How Does a Cross-Chain Transaction Work Technically?
Cross-chain transfers lock your assets on the originating chain, create a representation of them on the destination chain, and then unlock the original assets once the process is complete. -
Does Defiway Wallet comply with security standards and ensure the anonymity of it's users?
Your personal account meets the most stringent security standards. We take all possible measures to safeguard your funds. All our services work via SSL (HTTPS) connection, and important information is encrypted using the SHA-256 cryptographic algorithm.
