What WBTC representation leaves Base?
WBTC is a contract representation on Base at 0x0555e30da8f98308edb960aa94c0db47230d2b9c. ETH, not WBTC, pays gas unless both symbols are the same. A Base source transaction is sequenced on the OP Stack rollup and later settles to Ethereum; Base ETH and Base token approvals remain on the L2 ledger. WBTC leaves through a custodial wrapper contract with token approval and source-chain gas; no native Bitcoin UTXO is spent by that transfer.
What WBTC representation arrives on Hyperliquid (HyperEVM)?
WBTC is a contract representation on Hyperliquid (HyperEVM) with 8 decimals at 0x0555E30da8f98308EdB960aa94C0Db47230d2B9c. HYPE, not WBTC, pays gas unless both symbols are the same. A HyperEVM receipt belongs to its EVM execution state and uses HYPE for later gas; it should not be interpreted as a HyperCore position or vault balance. WBTC arrives as a wrapper-contract token and must not be sent onward to a native Bitcoin address without an explicit unwrap or bridge path.
Does the same WBTC ticker guarantee the same ledger form?
No. This bridge keeps the asset intent while moving between a WBTC wrapped token and a WBTC wrapped token. Match the source and output details in the live quote.
Which gas balances matter for this bridge?
A Base source transaction is sequenced on the OP Stack rollup and later settles to Ethereum; Base ETH and Base token approvals remain on the L2 ledger. A HyperEVM receipt belongs to its EVM execution state and uses HYPE for later gas; it should not be interpreted as a HyperCore position or vault balance. The bridge output does not automatically fund every later gas need.
What destination address should be used?
EVM 0x account address; confirm the destination is HyperEVM Do not substitute a Base address merely because a wallet displays both networks.
What wrong-direction mistake can prevent delivery?
Sending on a network other than Base, selecting a representation not listed by the quote, or entering an address invalid for Hyperliquid (HyperEVM) can prevent normal detection or receipt.
Can I bridge WBTC from Base to Hyperliquid without KYC?
Requirements are checked for the live WBTC Base to Hyperliquid 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.
