Common Deposit Mistakes

• Wrong network or asset: Always verify you’re depositing from the correct chain. Only deposits from Solana (for USDC) will be credited.

• Insufficient gas: Solana deposits require a small amount of SOL for network fees. Ensure you have enough before bridging.

• Below minimum amount: Deposits below the displayed minimum may not be credited. Always check the minimum deposit field in the window.
