Bridge from Arbitrum to Solana
Move USDC, ETH, SOL from Arbitrum to Solana at the best available rate.
Typical time — usually well under a few minutes on a liquidity bridge.
New to bridging? Move a small test amount first to see how it works — most transfers land in a couple of minutes.
Quotes include a 0.5% service fee that supports Bridgeline. Swaps execute through LI.FI’s audited smart contracts — this site never holds your funds.
Four steps, all signed in your own wallet.
- 01
Connect your wallet
Connect inside the bridge box. That's the only place Bridgeline ever asks — this site never sees your keys.
- 02
Pick your token and amount
Choose what you're moving, from which chain to which chain, and how much.
- 03
Review the quote and fee
You approve the exact amount in your own wallet, with the full fee shown. Cancel any time before you sign.
- 04
Confirm and track
Sign the transaction and watch it settle on-chain through LI.FI's audited contracts. Bridgeline is never in the middle.
Bridging Arbitrum to Solana
Bridging from Arbitrum to Solana crosses from an EVM rollup into the SVM world, so the address you send to won't look like an Arbitrum 0x address — it'll be a Solana address in a different format entirely. People make this move to trade actively on Solana, where fees are fractions of a cent.
Arbitrum has deep EVM DeFi, but Solana is built for high-throughput trading: sub-cent fees, ~0.4-second slots, and Jupiter aggregating most of the liquidity. People bridge this way to chase new listings, route through Jupiter, or rebalance on a chain where transactions barely cost anything. The key detail is gas on arrival — you need a small amount of SOL to cover Solana's fees and account rent.
Arbitrum
Source- Gas
- Usually a few cents per swap.
- Speed
- Sub-second confirmations; optimistic-rollup settlement to Ethereum.
- Ecosystem
- The deepest DeFi liquidity of any L2 — perpetuals, GMX, and major DEXs.
Solana
Destination- Gas
- Fees are fractions of a cent.
- Speed
- About 0.4-second slots; fast confirmation.
- Ecosystem
- A high-throughput non-EVM chain; Jupiter aggregates liquidity. You need a little SOL on arrival to cover fees and account rent.
Stay safe while bridging
- Approve only what you’re bridging. The widget requests finite token approvals by default — there’s no need to grant an unlimited allowance.
- Check the URL every time. Bookmark this site and confirm the address bar before connecting a wallet.
- Start small for a new route. A tiny test transfer confirms everything works before you move the full amount.
Moving a large amount? Consider a hardware wallet
A hardware wallet keeps your private keys offline, so a compromised browser or a malicious approval can’t drain your funds on its own. It’s the single biggest security upgrade for anyone holding meaningful value on-chain.

Questions about Arbitrum → Solana
Do I need SOL for gas when I arrive?
Yes. Solana pays fees and account rent in SOL, so bridging only USDC can leave you unable to transact. Use a route that delivers a little SOL on arrival, or keep some SOL ready.
Why does my Solana address look different?
Solana isn't EVM, so it doesn't use 0x addresses — it uses its own base58 format. Make sure you're sending to a Solana wallet you control, not an Arbitrum address, before you confirm.
Which USDC do I receive on Solana?
Prefer native Circle USDC on Solana (SPL) rather than a wrapped placeholder, since native USDC has by far the deepest liquidity there. The quote shows the destination token.
How long does it take?
Usually well under a few minutes on a liquidity bridge that swaps across ecosystems. Arbitrum confirms in under a second and Solana in about 0.4 seconds; the cross-ecosystem step is the main wait.
