What USDT representation leaves Polygon?
USDT is a contract representation on Polygon with 6 decimals at 0xc2132D05D31c914a87C6611C10748AEb04B58e8F. POL, not USDT, 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. The input must match the selected ERC-20, TRC-20, SPL, or other USDT representation; each standard has different address, approval, and fee behavior.
What USDT representation arrives on Linea?
USDT is a contract representation on Linea with 6 decimals at 0xA219439258ca9da29E9Cc4cE5596924745e12B93. ETH, not USDT, 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. Confirm whether the output is ERC-20, TRC-20, SPL, or another USDT standard; a wallet supporting one standard may not credit another.
Does the same USDT ticker guarantee the same ledger form?
No. This bridge keeps the asset intent while moving between a USDT contract token and a USDT 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 USDT from Polygon to Linea without KYC?
Requirements are checked for the live USDT 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.
