More about World Chain → Base

World Chain supports CCTP V2 Fast Transfer, so Circle attests the burn after soft finality instead of waiting for full finality. If Circle's Fast Transfer allowance is used up, it settles as a standard transfer instead, with Circle's standard attestation average from World Chain at ~15–19 minutes. From World Chain to Base, USDC typically takes about 1 minute with Fast Transfer (Circle's average attestation from World Chain: ~8 seconds), or longer if Circle's Fast Transfer allowance is used up (Circle's standard-transfer attestation average from World Chain: ~15–19 minutes); Circle's Forwarding Service submits the mint on Base.

On World Chain, with your sendstables wallet the fee payment, approval and burn are gas-sponsored, so you don't need any ETH for gas — just the USDC you're sending. If you connect your own EVM wallet instead, it pays the ETH gas for those transactions. On Base, Circle's Forwarding Service submits the mint for you, so the recipient doesn't need any ETH for gas on Base.

CCTP burns and re-mints instead of using a pool, so there's no slippage and no wrapped token. Learn about CCTP.
