How the Sasquatch deposit route works

1. Select the source

Choose the BNB asset and Solana network you currently hold.

2. Review the route

Check the estimated output, fees, timing, and ZKsync Era destination network.

3. Create the order

Open the live route and follow the exact deposit instructions.

4. Track delivery

Use the receipt and status page until the destination funds arrive.

What you need to know

Move from a Solana account into zkSync Era EVM

Solana uses Solana accounts and SOL for source fees, while zkSync Era uses an EVM 0x account and ETH for destination gas. Confirm the destination token contract and do not paste a Solana address into the EVM destination field. BNB is read from its Solana mint or native account, while BNB arrives at the quoted zkSync Era native or contract representation.

BNB mint and SOL fee checks

Base58-encoded Solana account address SOL is the native gas asset for Solana. A Solana source signs over accounts or token accounts, identifies SPL assets by mint, and spends SOL for transaction fees. Native BNB can fund value and BSC gas, while tokenized BNB requires the source chain’s gas asset and contract handling. The mint/account selected by the quote must match the source wallet balance.

zkSync Era contract and 0x receiving checks

EVM 0x account address ETH is the native gas asset for zkSync Era. A zkSync Era receipt belongs to EraVM account state and uses ETH for later fees; proof settlement to Ethereum remains distinct from L2 delivery. Native BSC receipt can fund BNB gas, while externally bridged BNB arrives as a representation that needs the destination chain’s gas token. A Solana address cannot receive this EVM-side output.

BNB keeps its ticker while changing ledgers

BNB is classified as a native asset for this route. BNB uses a network-specific contract asset on Solana. The recorded Solana representation uses 8 decimal places. The Solana side is contract-tracked rather than a native gas balance. Native BNB exists on multiple recorded origin networks; other network forms require representation checks. BNB is classified as a native asset for this route. BNB uses a network-specific contract asset on zkSync Era. The recorded zkSync Era representation uses 18 decimal places. The zkSync Era side is contract-tracked rather than a native gas balance. Native BNB exists on multiple recorded origin networks; other network forms require representation checks. BNB leaves as a network-specific contract asset. BNB arrives as a network-specific contract asset.

Solana to zkSync Era bridge mistakes

Route-specific mistakes include sending on a network other than Solana; using a destination that is not valid for zkSync Era; running out of SOL before the source transaction is submitted; assuming solana and evm addresses are interchangeable. A Solana source signs over accounts or token accounts, identifies SPL assets by mint, and spends SOL for transaction fees. Native BNB can fund value and BSC gas, while tokenized BNB requires the source chain’s gas asset and contract handling. A zkSync Era receipt belongs to EraVM account state and uses ETH for later fees; proof settlement to Ethereum remains distinct from L2 delivery. Native BSC receipt can fund BNB gas, while externally bridged BNB arrives as a representation that needs the destination chain’s gas token.

Private Route for BNB → BNB

Solana account, token, program, signature, and fee activity remain public, and ZKsync Era wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public. For this BNB on Solana to BNB on ZKsync Era path, Private Route is intended to reduce the direct visible relationship between activity around the source-side Base58-encoded Solana account address and destination-side EVM 0x account address; it does not hide either chain's public records.

Solana to ZKsync Era FAQs

What changes between the Solana source and zkSync Era receipt?

The source uses a Solana signature, mint or native account, and SOL fees. The destination uses a 0x account, ETH gas, and the quoted EVM token contract or native balance.

What BNB representation leaves Solana?

BNB is a contract representation on Solana with 8 decimals at 9gP2kCy3wA1ctvYWQk75guqXuHfrEomqydHLtcTCqiLa. SOL, not BNB, pays gas unless both symbols are the same. A Solana source signs over accounts or token accounts, identifies SPL assets by mint, and spends SOL for transaction fees. Native BNB can fund value and BSC gas, while tokenized BNB requires the source chain’s gas asset and contract handling.

What BNB representation arrives on zkSync Era?

BNB is a contract representation on zkSync Era with 18 decimals at 0x7400793aAd94C8CA801aa036357d10F5Fd0ce08f. ETH, not BNB, pays gas unless both symbols are the same. A zkSync Era receipt belongs to EraVM account state and uses ETH for later fees; proof settlement to Ethereum remains distinct from L2 delivery. Native BSC receipt can fund BNB gas, while externally bridged BNB arrives as a representation that needs the destination chain’s gas token.

Does the same BNB ticker guarantee the same ledger form?

No. This bridge keeps the asset intent while moving between a BNB contract token and a BNB contract token. Match the source and output details in the live quote.

Which gas balances matter for this bridge?

A Solana source signs over accounts or token accounts, identifies SPL assets by mint, and spends SOL for transaction fees. A zkSync Era receipt belongs to EraVM account state and uses ETH for later fees; proof settlement to Ethereum remains distinct from L2 delivery. The bridge output does not automatically fund every later gas need.

What destination address should be used?

EVM 0x account address Do not substitute a Solana address merely because a wallet displays both networks.

What wrong-direction mistake can prevent delivery?

Sending on a network other than Solana, selecting a representation not listed by the quote, or entering an address invalid for zkSync Era can prevent normal detection or receipt.

Can I bridge BNB from Solana to ZKsync Era without KYC?

Requirements are checked for the live BNB Solana to ZKsync Era quote. Verification requirements can depend on the provider, amount, jurisdiction, and current route. Sasquatch does not verify this route as universally no-KYC; check the live flow before continuing.
