Do I pay the fixed Solana fee even for USDC?

Yes. The network and bridge fees on the Solana side are paid in SOL regardless of the token you move, so keep a little SOL for it and compare before sending small amounts.

Is the USDC on Base the same as on Solana?

It is USDC on both chains, issued natively on each. The route delivers Base USDC to your address; the amount that arrives is shown per provider.

Move USDC from Solana to Base

USDC lives on both Solana and Base, so this route carries the same token across two ecosystems through a bridge. Three providers quote it: LI.FI, Relay and deBridge.

The table shows the exact amount of USDC that arrives on Base, the estimated time and the fees per route, our 0.08% commission included in the figure. A same-token transfer makes the net easy to judge.

Solana attaches fixed network and bridge fees to this move, roughly 0.02 SOL. On a small transfer that fixed cost is a real slice of the total, so it pays to compare the three routes and send when the numbers look right. On a larger transfer it barely shows.

You sign from your own wallets on both sides. Funds never pass through us. Your wallet, your funds.
