EVM chains on U.CASH

18 evm chains, each with its own page: what it is, how it settles, and every way to use it on U.CASH.

What this class is

EVM chains are the Ethereum-compatible networks: same tooling, same wallet format, same token standard, different settlement economics. They trade mainnet's security depth for faster blocks and cheaper gas, which is where payment volume goes. Assets here settle in seconds at cents, with ETH usually paying the gas.

The notable names set the tone: Base, Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon, and 14 more below. Between them they cover the liquidity most flows actually route through, and the long tail is where the interesting structure lives: smaller issuances, newer programs, and the assets whose pages carry diligence facts worth reading before size. Every entry in the grid links to a full page with contracts, network facts, and the swap deep link, so browsing the class is one click from executing on any member of it. The roster updates as the registry does: new listings appear with full pages from day one, and nothing in this directory is a placeholder promising capability that is not live.

What the class means operationally: every asset below carries the same platform capability set regardless of category. Accept it at checkout, swap it against the full roster, hold it non-custodial in your own wallet, and send it anywhere its chain reaches. The class shapes how the asset settles, not what you can do with it, and the per-asset pages carry the specifics that matter at execution time: block time, gas token, confirmation policy, and contracts.

EVM chains: FAQ

How many evm chains does U.CASH support?
18 with their own pages, each carrying contracts, network facts, and every way to use the asset on the platform. The roster is registry-driven and grows as assets list.
Can I accept any of these at checkout?
Yes: any supported token can be a checkout asset, settling non-custodial to your wallet. Buyers pay from any wallet, the invoice keeps its denomination, and the payment record carries the reference.
How do these assets settle?
On their own chains, at their own cadence, with gas in the chain's native token. Each asset page states its confirmation policy so both sides of a payment watch the same finish line.
What is the difference between classes here?
Settlement behavior, not capability: a layer 1 pays gas on its own chain, an EVM chain settles faster and cheaper than mainnet, a stablecoin holds a peg, tokens ride their host chains, and the ramp tier converts from fiat natively. Every class accepts the same platform verbs.
How do I choose within the class?
By settlement fit and liquidity: the deeper assets route tighter spreads on size, and the page for each states its chains, fees, and confirmation policy. For checkout purposes, enable what your buyers hold and let the router close the gap.
