Leaving Scroll L2 for Polygon L1
Scroll inclusion and its ethereum settlement are distinct from final receipt on Polygon. The live route, rather than a generic rollup withdrawal assumption, determines the provider path and timing for this direction.

How the Sasquatch deposit route works
1. Select the source
Choose the USDC asset and Scroll network you currently hold.
2. Review the route
Check the estimated output, fees, timing, and Polygon 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
Scroll deposit-side execution
Scroll is a L2 EVM network in the Ethereum ecosystem. ETH pays source-side network gas on Scroll. EVM 0x account address A Scroll source executes in the zkEVM and is later included in a proof batch to Ethereum; Scroll contract identity must be verified independently.
Select a Polygon-compatible output
EVM 0x account address POL is the native gas asset for Polygon. The quote identifies whether the delivered asset is native, contract-based, or bridged.
Polygon receipt-side execution
Polygon is a L1 EVM network in the Polygon ecosystem. POL pays destination-side network gas on Polygon. EVM 0x account address A Polygon PoS receipt follows Polygon token contracts and checkpointed execution; later movement uses POL gas rather than Ethereum L1 gas.
Scroll to Polygon bridge mistakes
Route-specific mistakes include sending on a network other than Scroll; using a destination that is not valid for Polygon; running out of ETH before the source transaction is submitted. A Scroll source executes in the zkEVM and is later included in a proof batch to Ethereum; Scroll contract identity must be verified independently. A Polygon PoS receipt follows Polygon token contracts and checkpointed execution; later movement uses POL gas rather than Ethereum L1 gas.
Private Route for USDC → USDC
Scroll wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public, and Polygon wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public. For this USDC on Scroll to USDC on Polygon 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.

Scroll to Polygon FAQs
Which asset can travel from Scroll to Polygon?
The live route lists assets supported in this direction. Confirm that the selected source representation has an explicit Polygon output before depositing.
Which gas balances matter for this bridge?
A Scroll source executes in the zkEVM and is later included in a proof batch to Ethereum; Scroll contract identity must be verified independently. A Polygon PoS receipt follows Polygon token contracts and checkpointed execution; later movement uses POL gas rather than Ethereum L1 gas. 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 Scroll address merely because a wallet displays both networks.
What wrong-direction mistake can prevent delivery?
Sending on a network other than Scroll, selecting a representation not listed by the quote, or entering an address invalid for Polygon can prevent normal detection or receipt.
Can I bridge USDC from Scroll to Polygon without KYC?
Requirements are checked for the live USDC Scroll to Polygon 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.
