How the Sasquatch deposit route works

1. Select the source

Choose the SOL asset and Arbitrum 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

SOL source representation

Solana is classified as a native asset for this route. SOL uses a network-specific contract asset on Arbitrum. The recorded Arbitrum representation uses 9 decimal places. Native SOL leaves a Solana account through a signed transaction and pays the fee; wrapped or tokenized SOL uses a token account or external contract instead.

Leaving Arbitrum L2 for Polygon L1

Arbitrum 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.

SOL destination representation

Solana is classified as a native asset for this route. SOL uses a network-specific contract asset on Polygon. The recorded Polygon representation uses 9 decimal places. Native SOL receipt uses a Solana address and can fund later fees; wrapped SOL uses an SPL token account and tokenized SOL elsewhere is not native.

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.

Arbitrum deposit-side execution

Arbitrum is a L2 EVM network in the Ethereum ecosystem. ETH pays source-side network gas on Arbitrum. EVM 0x account address On an Arbitrum source, the Nitro sequencer records L2 execution before Ethereum settlement completes; ETH funds gas and ERC-20 inputs can need approval.

Arbitrum to Polygon bridge mistakes

Route-specific mistakes include sending on a network other than Arbitrum; using a destination that is not valid for Polygon; running out of ETH before the source transaction is submitted. On an Arbitrum source, the Nitro sequencer records L2 execution before Ethereum settlement completes; ETH funds gas and ERC-20 inputs can need approval. Native SOL leaves a Solana account through a signed transaction and pays the fee; wrapped or tokenized SOL uses a token account or external contract instead. A Polygon PoS receipt follows Polygon token contracts and checkpointed execution; later movement uses POL gas rather than Ethereum L1 gas. Native SOL receipt uses a Solana address and can fund later fees; wrapped SOL uses an SPL token account and tokenized SOL elsewhere is not native.

Private Route for SOL → SOL

Arbitrum wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public, and Polygon wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public. For this SOL on Arbitrum to SOL 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.

Arbitrum to Polygon FAQs

What SOL representation leaves Arbitrum?

SOL is a contract representation on Arbitrum with 9 decimals at 0x2bcC6D6CdBbDC0a4071e48bb3B969b06B3330c07. ETH, not SOL, pays gas unless both symbols are the same. On an Arbitrum source, the Nitro sequencer records L2 execution before Ethereum settlement completes; ETH funds gas and ERC-20 inputs can need approval. Native SOL leaves a Solana account through a signed transaction and pays the fee; wrapped or tokenized SOL uses a token account or external contract instead.

What SOL representation arrives on Polygon?

SOL is a contract representation on Polygon with 9 decimals at 0xd93f7E271cB87c23AaA73edC008A79646d1F9912. POL, not SOL, pays gas unless both symbols are the same. A Polygon PoS receipt follows Polygon token contracts and checkpointed execution; later movement uses POL gas rather than Ethereum L1 gas. Native SOL receipt uses a Solana address and can fund later fees; wrapped SOL uses an SPL token account and tokenized SOL elsewhere is not native.

Does the same SOL ticker guarantee the same ledger form?

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

Which gas balances matter for this bridge?

On an Arbitrum source, the Nitro sequencer records L2 execution before Ethereum settlement completes; ETH funds gas and ERC-20 inputs can need approval. 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 Arbitrum address merely because a wallet displays both networks.

What wrong-direction mistake can prevent delivery?

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

Can I bridge SOL from Arbitrum to Polygon without KYC?

Requirements are checked for the live SOL Arbitrum 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.
