Swap USDC to LINK

Exchange USDC from Base into LINK on Ethereum. The provider waits for the USDC deposit before arranging the LINK payout on the destination network. Track those as separate transactions rather than using a sending-chain confirmation as proof of receipt.

You send: USDC (Base)USDC · base
You receive: Chainlink (ERC20)LINK · ERC20

Enter your amount to check live availability for USDC on base → LINK on ERC20. A provider quote is required before you can create a swap.

Address and network checks

Both Base and Ethereum use EVM-style addresses. An identical address string cannot confirm the network. Check Base in the sending wallet and Ethereum in the receiving wallet separately.

Sending USDC

Switch the wallet to Base. ETH on Ethereum mainnet cannot pay the normal gas fee for a separate token transfer on Base. Confirm the destination supports the exact USDC version returned by the provider. In particular, do not assume USDC, USDC.e and Binance-Peg representations are interchangeable.

For a standard self-custody transfer on Base, allow for network fees in ETH, separately from your USDC balance. Wallet sponsorship and exchange withdrawal charges can differ; check the sending wallet’s final fee.

Receiving LINK

Choose Ethereum mainnet in the wallet. Base, Arbitrum and OP Mainnet use separate balances even when the account address looks identical. Keep ETH available for a normal self-custody LINK transfer on Ethereum. LINK itself does not replace the ETH used to pay that network’s gas fee. This listed LINK/ERC20 option has no separate memo field. If your destination requires additional instructions that this form cannot supply, choose another compatible destination before creating an order.
