How the Sasquatch deposit route works

1. Select the source

Choose the DAI asset and Polygon network you currently hold.

2. Review the route

Check the estimated output, fees, timing, and Linea 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

DAI representation on both sides

DAI leaves through its network-specific stablecoin contract and can require approval; the collateral design does not make a bridged DAI contract canonical. The receiving wallet must recognize the exact destination DAI contract. Peg intent does not guarantee that a bridged representation has the same liquidity or issuer path. The same stablecoin ticker does not make the two network records or contracts interchangeable.

POL source gas and ETH destination readiness

A Polygon PoS source uses its validator/checkpoint system and POL gas; its token contracts and checkpoints are separate from Ethereum L1. A Linea receipt is recorded on the zkEVM L2 before the related proof settles to Ethereum; later activity needs ETH on Linea and the Linea token contract.

From Polygon L1 into Linea L2

Polygon source execution occurs on L1, while Linea delivery occurs on a separate L2 ledger that settles to ethereum. POL pays source gas and ETH is the destination gas asset; identical-looking wallet addresses do not merge the balances or transaction histories.

Polygon deposit-side execution

Polygon is a L1 EVM network in the Polygon ecosystem. POL pays source-side network gas on Polygon. EVM 0x account address A Polygon PoS source uses its validator/checkpoint system and POL gas; its token contracts and checkpoints are separate from Ethereum L1.

Linea receipt-side execution

Linea is a L2 EVM network in the Ethereum ecosystem. ETH pays destination-side network gas on Linea. EVM 0x account address A Linea receipt is recorded on the zkEVM L2 before the related proof settles to Ethereum; later activity needs ETH on Linea and the Linea token contract.

Polygon to Linea bridge mistakes

Route-specific mistakes include sending on a network other than Polygon; using a destination that is not valid for Linea; running out of POL before the source transaction is submitted; selecting a stablecoin by ticker without checking its network contract. A Polygon PoS source uses its validator/checkpoint system and POL gas; its token contracts and checkpoints are separate from Ethereum L1. DAI leaves through its network-specific stablecoin contract and can require approval; the collateral design does not make a bridged DAI contract canonical. A Linea receipt is recorded on the zkEVM L2 before the related proof settles to Ethereum; later activity needs ETH on Linea and the Linea token contract. The receiving wallet must recognize the exact destination DAI contract. Peg intent does not guarantee that a bridged representation has the same liquidity or issuer path.

Private Route for DAI → DAI

Polygon wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public, and Linea wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public. For this DAI on Polygon to DAI on Linea path, Private Route is intended to reduce the direct visible relationship between activity around the source-side EVM 0x account address and destination-side EVM 0x account address; it does not hide either chain's public records.

Polygon to Linea FAQs

What DAI representation leaves Polygon?

DAI is a contract representation on Polygon with 18 decimals at 0x8f3Cf7ad23Cd3CaDbD9735AFf958023239c6A063. POL, not DAI, pays gas unless both symbols are the same. A Polygon PoS source uses its validator/checkpoint system and POL gas; its token contracts and checkpoints are separate from Ethereum L1. DAI leaves through its network-specific stablecoin contract and can require approval; the collateral design does not make a bridged DAI contract canonical.

What DAI representation arrives on Linea?

DAI is a contract representation on Linea with 18 decimals at 0x4AF15ec2A0BD43Db75dd04E62FAA3B8EF36b00d5. ETH, not DAI, pays gas unless both symbols are the same. A Linea receipt is recorded on the zkEVM L2 before the related proof settles to Ethereum; later activity needs ETH on Linea and the Linea token contract. The receiving wallet must recognize the exact destination DAI contract. Peg intent does not guarantee that a bridged representation has the same liquidity or issuer path.

Does the same DAI ticker guarantee the same ledger form?

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

Which gas balances matter for this bridge?

A Polygon PoS source uses its validator/checkpoint system and POL gas; its token contracts and checkpoints are separate from Ethereum L1. A Linea receipt is recorded on the zkEVM L2 before the related proof settles to Ethereum; later activity needs ETH on Linea and the Linea token contract. 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 Polygon address merely because a wallet displays both networks.

What wrong-direction mistake can prevent delivery?

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

Can I bridge DAI from Polygon to Linea without KYC?

Requirements are checked for the live DAI Polygon to Linea 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.
