Privacy for the Solana to Ethereum direction
Where offered, Private Route is intended to reduce an obvious direct association between the Solana sending wallet and Ethereum receiving wallet; it does not hide either blockchain. SOL is the native gas asset for Solana. Base58-encoded Solana account address ETH is the native gas asset for Ethereum. EVM 0x account address Similar amounts, timing, address reuse, and later consolidation can still add association signals. Identity requirements must be checked separately.
Solana source-side visibility
Solana exposes account keys, transaction signatures, token-account changes, program calls, amounts, fees, and timing. It uses an account-and-program execution model with transaction signatures rather than EVM hashes. SPL tokens use mint and token-account records, and a receiving wallet may need the correct associated token account plus SOL for later activity. The source deposit, gas funding, asset representation, confirmations, and sending-address history remain outside any promise of invisibility.
Ethereum destination-side visibility
Ethereum exposes account history, token approvals, contract calls, logs, gas funding, amounts, and timing under its own chain identifier. It is the settlement-layer EVM network for this inventory. ERC-20 transfers can require a separate approval, base fee and priority fee affect source cost, and an L1 token contract does not establish an L2 representation. The destination delivery and later activity can remain observable even when the provider path reduces a direct association.
Solana deposit role versus Ethereum receipt role
A Solana source signs over accounts or token accounts, identifies SPL assets by mint, and spends SOL for transaction fees. Those deposit-side events remain public. An Ethereum receipt is an L1 native ETH balance or ERC-20 contract event; later token movement can require ETH gas and a new approval for another contract. The receipt and later activity remain public.
Public Solana deposit and public EVM delivery
The source signature, account keys, token-account changes, programs, and SOL fee remain visible. Ethereum separately exposes the destination 0x account, SOL receipt, contract logs, and later gas-funded activity.
SOL fee-payer and account evidence; SOL fee-payer and account evidence
Native SOL balance changes, fee-payer accounts, signatures, and later token-account activity remain visible on Solana. Tokenized SOL elsewhere follows a separate contract ledger. 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. The source transfer remains public. Native SOL balance changes, fee-payer accounts, signatures, and later token-account activity remain visible on Solana. Tokenized SOL elsewhere follows a separate contract ledger. 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. The destination receipt and later use remain public even when direct wallet association is reduced.
Cross-chain linkability limits
Private routing can reduce a direct association between the Solana source account and EVM receiver. The source signature, program and token-account changes, destination contract logs, gas, amounts, and timing remain public. A Solana source signs over accounts or token accounts, identifies SPL assets by mint, and spends SOL for transaction fees. 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. An Ethereum receipt is an L1 native ETH balance or ERC-20 contract event; later token movement can require ETH gas and a new approval for another contract. 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.
Verification status is separate from privacy status
Provider policy is evaluated for the exact Solana mint or native asset, the other network representation, amount, and region. Cross-ecosystem wallet compatibility and no-KYC status are separate checks. A Solana source signs over accounts or token accounts, identifies SPL assets by mint, and spends SOL for transaction fees. 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. An Ethereum receipt is an L1 native ETH balance or ERC-20 contract event; later token movement can require ETH gas and a new approval for another contract. 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.
