How private Polygon bridge routing works
Where offered on an exact route, Private Route is intended to reduce an obvious direct association between sending and receiving wallets. Polygon activity and the other chain’s activity can still remain public.
Polygon data that remains public
Addresses, balances, token movements, contract calls, gas, amounts, and timestamps can remain visible on Polygon. Polygon is a L1 EVM network in the Polygon ecosystem. Polygon PoS uses an EVM sidechain architecture with its own validator checkpoints and gas balance. Its token representations and bridge behavior are separate from Ethereum L1 even when wallets use the same 0x account.
EVM execution evidence on Polygon
Polygon PoS uses an EVM sidechain architecture with its own validator checkpoints and gas balance. Its token representations and bridge behavior are separate from Ethereum L1 even when wallets use the same 0x account. The network's execution, gas, address, and finality records remain public.
Polygon gas and address checks
POL is the native gas asset for Polygon. EVM 0x account address Confirm Polygon, its evm 0x account address, and the exact asset representation before sending. Keep POL available for network gas when a transaction is required.
Route-specific availability
18 bridge routes involving Polygon is available. Private Route is checked separately for the selected assets, networks, amount, and current conditions in the live flow.
Identity and custody requirements
Private Route, no KYC, no account, no wallet connection, and non-custodial are separate properties. This page makes no global promise about the provider requirements or custody model of every exact route.
Choose an exact direction
Outgoing and incoming routes have different source gas, destination address, confirmation, asset representation, and public-record considerations. Open an exact route below rather than assuming both directions behave the same way.
