It is a reference rate, not a quote. What you actually receive depends on the size of your swap, the depth of the pools it routes through, the network fee and the slippage you allow. SwapRoute queries every capable provider in parallel and ranks the results by net USDC received, so the figure in the swap box reflects a real executable route rather than a mid-market price.
