Learn how to use the Hyperliquid bridge to transfer USDC from Arbitrum. Step-by-step guide to depositing funds on Hyperliquid.
The Hyperliquid bridge is the official way to transfer USDC from Arbitrum to Hyperliquid L1. Hyperliquid runs on its own Layer 1 blockchain, so you need to bridge your funds from Arbitrum to start trading.
The bridge is fast, secure, and has minimal fees. It's the primary method to deposit funds into your Hyperliquid wallet. Once bridged, you can trade 200+ perpetual pairs with lightning-fast execution.
The bridge uses a trustless mechanism secured by the Hyperliquid protocol. When you bridge USDC, your tokens are locked on Arbitrum and minted on Hyperliquid L1. The reverse process (withdrawing) burns tokens on Hyperliquid and unlocks them on Arbitrum. This ensures your funds are always backed 1:1.
