ETH: changing network from Arbitrum One to OP Mainnet (Optimism)


It is still ETH, only in a different blockchain: you send ETH Arbitrum, and the payout of ETH Optimism goes to your address in OP Mainnet (Optimism). Bridge contracts, signatures and wrapped tokens play no part.

Right now 1 ETH Arbitrum gets you 0.99999 ETH Optimism; the other way round, 1 ETH Optimism is 1 ETH Arbitrum. Over 24 hours ETH Arbitrum/ETH Optimism came in at about 0%. Over the week, about 0%.
The weekly range ran from 1 to 1 ETH Optimism, a spread of 0%. One order takes from 0.0374734 to 3,730 ETH Arbitrum. In dollars that is roughly $100.42.
The robot sends the payout in the Optimism network, so the address has to belong to that network — a transfer to another one will not arrive.
Which network ETH arrives in
The same ETH goes out in several networks. Each has its own rate and its own floor, and the fee is charged by the network itself.

How the ETH Arbitrum → ETH Optimism exchange runs
- Work out the amount in the calculator — orders start at 0.0374734 ETH Arbitrum.
- Give a ETH address on Optimism and a contact for the order.
- Send ETH Arbitrum on Arbitrum One, exactly the amount the order shows.
- Nothing else is needed from you: as soon as the network confirms the transfer, the robot sends Ethereum Optimism to your address. The order page shows the status.
Check this before sending ETH Arbitrum
- The address network is Optimism. Sending through another network almost always means losing the transfer.
- The transfer must not be smaller than 0.0374734 ETH Arbitrum.
- Copy the address in full, then check its first and last characters once it is pasted.
- Ethereum, Arbitrum, Optimism, BNB Smart Chain and Polygon addresses look the same (0x…) — make sure the wallet is switched to OP Mainnet (Optimism).
- Send exactly the amount stated in the order: the automation matches your payment against it, and any difference sends the order back for recalculation.

The cost and speed marks are given against each other: both drift with the load on the network.
How an exchange differs from an ordinary bridge
| Velorex | Ordinary bridge | |
|---|---|---|
| What arrives at the address | the OP Mainnet (Optimism) network's own coin, ETH | It varies: a number of networks hand out the bridged version of the token |
| Wallet connection and signatures | We do without them: the payout goes to the address from the order | Mandatory: the wallet is connected, contract transactions are signed |
| Is a OP Mainnet (Optimism) coin needed for fees | Not required to receive | As a rule yes, otherwise the funds cannot be claimed or moved on |
| When it arrives | As soon as Arbitrum One gathers confirmations; the status is shown on the order page | Set by the bridge itself and by the load on both networks |
| Who holds the funds on the way | Velorex — until the order is closed by the payout | The smart contract of the bridge or its validators |

Why people take the ETH Arbitrum → ETH Optimism route
- Changing networkETH from Arbitrum One (fee ≈ $0.0014) moves over to Optimism (fee ≈ $0.0001). That is how people top up a wallet or an exchange that takes one network only.
- It works both waysThe ETH Optimism → ETH Arbitrum direction is open as well — going back into ETH takes the same route and the same automation.
