The figure is indicative; the exact amount is locked in the order.
Today USDC Polygon goes for 1.0001 USDC AVAX C, and USDC AVAX C goes for 0.9999 USDC Polygon. Market over 24 hours: USDC Polygon against USDC AVAX C a move of 0%. The week added a move of 0%.
The weekly corridor ran from 1 to 1 USDC AVAX C, a spread of 0%.
The payout leaves in the Avalanche C-Chain network, so the receiving address has to belong to that network.
Who takes the USDC Polygon → USDC AVAX C route
- Moving between networksUSDC in Polygon (fee ≈ $0.0018) becomes Avalanche C-Chain (fee ≈ < $0.0001) — the usual way to top up a wallet or an exchange that speaks one network only.
- A road both waysThe USDC AVAX C → USDC Polygon direction is open too, so going back into USDC takes the same route.

Payout network for USDC
The same USDC goes out in several networks. Rates and lower limits differ, and the fee is charged by the network itself.
| Network | Per USDC Polygon | From | Network fee | Speed |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Solana | 0.9999 | 10,500 USDC Polygon | ≈ $0.00051 | fast |
| Ethereum (ERC20) | 1.0055 | 100 USDC Polygon | ≈ $0.023 | medium |

How the USDC Polygon → USDC AVAX C order runs
- Work out the amount in the calculator and press the exchange button.
- Enter a USDC address in Avalanche C-Chain and a way to reach you.
- Send USDC Polygon in Polygon for exactly the amount stated in the order.
- Once the network confirms your transfer, USD Coin AVAX C leaves for your address. The order page tracks every step.
Check this before sending USDC Polygon
- The address network is Avalanche C-Chain. Sending through another network usually means losing the transfer.
- Copy the address whole, then compare the first and last characters after pasting.
- Ethereum, Arbitrum, Optimism, BNB Smart Chain and Polygon all use the same address shape (0x…). Make sure the wallet is switched to Avalanche C-Chain.
- To move USDC on later, put a little AVAX at the same address.
- Coins go through an AML check: a flagged transfer can be held until the check is finished.
Polygon PoS against Avalanche C-Chain
| Polygon PoS | Avalanche C-Chain | |
|---|---|---|
| Network type | Sidechain with checkpoints in Ethereum | Layer one (L1) |
| Fees are paid in | POL | AVAX |
| Fee level | ≈ $0.0018 | ≈ < $0.0001 |
| Speed | fast | fast |
| Block | ~2 sec | — |
| Address shape | 0x… | 0x… |
| Memo or tag | not needed | not needed |
| Ethereum-style address (0x…) | yes | yes |
Fee and speed levels are comparative: both move with how busy the network is.
How this differs from a classic bridge
| RubyCash | Classic bridge | |
|---|---|---|
| What lands at your address | USDC in Avalanche C-Chain | 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 Avalanche C-Chain | Not needed to receive | Often needed, or the funds cannot be claimed or moved on |
| Timing | After confirmations in Polygon PoS; the order page tracks it | Depends on the bridge and the load of both networks |
| Who holds the funds meanwhile | RubyCash for the life of the order, with an AML check | The bridge contract or its validators |
