My USDC is on Arbitrum, a CEX, or my Hyperliquid account — can I still deposit?
Yes. Most people's USDC starts somewhere other than HyperEVM. You just bring it onto HyperEVM first:
- Already on Hyperliquid (your trading balance): transfer USDC from your Hyperliquid account to HyperEVM inside the Hyperliquid app. Fastest path.
- On Arbitrum or another chain: bridge into Hyperliquid, then move it to HyperEVM.
- On a centralized exchange: withdraw to Arbitrum, bridge into Hyperliquid, then move to HyperEVM.
Those steps happen in the Hyperliquid app. The final deposit happens here.
