What USDC representation leaves zkSync Era?
USDC is a contract representation on zkSync Era at 0x1d17cbcf0d6d143135ae902365d2e5e2a16538d4. ETH, not USDC, pays gas unless both symbols are the same. A zkSync Era source executes in EraVM with native account-abstraction behavior and ETH fees before proof settlement to Ethereum. The source wallet sends the exact USDC native or contract representation selected by the route; contract USDC can require approval and the chain’s native gas asset.
What USDC representation arrives on Polygon?
USDC is a contract representation on Polygon with 6 decimals at 0x3c499c542cEF5E3811e1192ce70d8cC03d5c3359. POL, not USDC, 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. The wallet must support the destination USDC native label or contract. Receipt does not automatically supply the destination network’s gas asset.
Does the same USDC ticker guarantee the same ledger form?
No. This bridge keeps the asset intent while moving between a USDC contract token and a USDC contract token. Match the source and output details in the live quote.
Which gas balances matter for this bridge?
A zkSync Era source executes in EraVM with native account-abstraction behavior and ETH fees before proof settlement to Ethereum. 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 zkSync Era address merely because a wallet displays both networks.
What wrong-direction mistake can prevent delivery?
Sending on a network other than zkSync Era, 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 ZKsync Era to Polygon without KYC?
Requirements are checked for the live USDC ZKsync Era 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.
