Preliminary figure: the final amount is locked in the order.

Current maths: 0.000370577 ETH Arbitrum for every USDC Optimism, and 2,698.5 USDC Optimism per ETH Arbitrum in reverse. Over 24 hours USDC Optimism/ETH Arbitrum came in at plus 1.44%. Over the week, plus 1.85%.

The weekly range ran from 0.000365224 to 0.000377546 ETH Arbitrum, a spread of 3.37%. One order takes from 100.67 to 10,000,000 USDC Optimism. In dollars that is roughly $100.65.

The robot sends the payout in the Arbitrum One network, so the address has to belong to that network — a transfer to another one will not arrive. Market capitalisation puts USD Coin at No. 6 ($74.33 B) and Ethereum at No. 2 ($328.98 B). Over 90 days the daily moves of USDC and ETH correlate at 0 (they travel apart).

Swap USDC Optimism for ETH Arbitrum

Check this before sending USDC Optimism

  • The address network is Arbitrum One. Sending through another network almost always means losing the transfer.
  • The transfer must not be smaller than 100.67 USDC Optimism.
  • Copy the address in full, then check its first and last characters once it is pasted.
  • Send exactly the amount stated in the order: the automation matches your payment against it, and any difference sends the order back for recalculation.
