How this differs from a classic bridge

	RubyCash	Classic bridge
What lands at your address	Native ETH or ordinary Ethereum tokens	Depends: in some networks it is the bridged version of the token
Wallet and signatures	Not needed: the coins go to the address from the order	Needed: connect the wallet and sign contract transactions
A coin for fees in Ethereum	Not needed to receive	Often needed, or the funds cannot be claimed or moved on
Timing	After confirmations in Arbitrum One; the order page tracks it	≈ 7 days for the official withdrawal from Arbitrum One to Ethereum
Who holds the funds meanwhile	RubyCash for the life of the order, with an AML check	The bridge contract or its validators
