USDC sent but not received
USDC exists natively on Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum, OP Mainnet, Polygon and others, and bridged variants add more confusion. A platform that credits USDC on Ethereum may not credit it on Base.
The transaction settles the question of which network was used, in seconds and for free.
Where USDC is credited, by network
USDC exists on several networks and every platform picks its own subset. A transfer over a network outside that subset confirms perfectly and is never credited, which is why "I definitely sent it" and "they definitely have not received it" are both true at once.
| Platform | Networks credited | Approximate minimum |
|---|---|---|
| Binance | Ethereum (ERC20), Base, Arbitrum One, Optimism, Polygon (PoS), BNB Smart Chain (BEP20) and Solana (SPL) | 1 USDC |
| Coinbase | Ethereum (ERC20), Base, Arbitrum One, Optimism, Polygon (PoS) and Solana (SPL) | 0.01 USDC |
| Kraken | Ethereum (ERC20), Base, Arbitrum One, Optimism, Polygon (PoS) and Solana (SPL) | 5 USDC |
| Crypto.com | Ethereum (ERC20), Polygon (PoS), Arbitrum One, Optimism and Solana (SPL) | 1 USDC |
| Bybit | Ethereum (ERC20), Arbitrum One, Polygon (PoS), BNB Smart Chain (BEP20) and Solana (SPL) | 1 USDC |
| OKX | Ethereum (ERC20), Base, Arbitrum One, Optimism, Polygon (PoS) and Solana (SPL) | 1 USDC |
| KuCoin | Ethereum (ERC20), Arbitrum One, Optimism, Polygon (PoS) and Solana (SPL) | 1 USDC |
| Revolut | Ethereum (ERC20) and Polygon (PoS) | 1 USDC |

Confirmations required, platform by platform
The same transfer is 'not yet confirmed enough' at one platform and long since credited at another, because the threshold is a business decision rather than a property of the network. Comparing them is the quickest way to see whether your wait is normal.
| Platform | Bitcoin | Ethereum | TRON | Polygon | Solana |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Binance | 1 | 6 | 1 | 100 | 32 |
| Coinbase | 3 | 35 | 1 | 200 | 32 |
| Kraken | 4 | 20 | 20 | 120 | 32 |
| Crypto.com | 1 | 12 | 1 | 100 | 32 |
| Bybit | 1 | 6 | 1 | 100 | 32 |
| OKX | 1 | 12 | 1 | 100 | 32 |
| KuCoin | 2 | 12 | 1 | 100 | 32 |
| Revolut | 3 | 30 | 20 | 150 | 32 |

Could this be a wrong-network USDC transfer?
A successful USDC transaction can still be invisible to the destination when it arrived on a network that destination does not credit. The transaction ID proves which network was used; recoverability then depends on who controls the receiving address there.
- Check whether crypto sent on the wrong network can be recovered — Identify the network used before contacting the destination.
- Compare the asset and network with published exchange recovery routes — A policy match is guidance, not a guarantee that a specific transfer will be recovered.

Questions
Is bridged USDC the same as native USDC?
Not always to an exchange. Bridged variants can have different contract addresses, and platforms may credit one and not the other. The diagnosis reads the actual token contract from your transaction.
