Privacy for the zkSync Era to Solana direction
Where offered, Private Route is intended to reduce an obvious direct association between the zkSync Era sending wallet and Solana receiving wallet; it does not hide either blockchain. ETH is the native gas asset for zkSync Era. EVM 0x account address SOL is the native gas asset for Solana. Base58-encoded Solana account address Similar amounts, timing, address reuse, and later consolidation can still add association signals. Identity requirements must be checked separately.
zkSync Era source-side visibility
zkSync Era exposes account history, token approvals, contract calls, logs, gas funding, amounts, and timing under its own chain identifier. It is a zero-knowledge rollup using EraVM and native account-abstraction features while settling proofs to Ethereum. Execution, fee estimation, and contract compatibility can differ from a byte-for-byte Ethereum assumption. The source deposit, gas funding, asset representation, confirmations, and sending-address history remain outside any promise of invisibility.
Solana destination-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 destination delivery and later activity can remain observable even when the provider path reduces a direct association.
zkSync Era deposit role versus Solana receipt role
A zkSync Era source executes in EraVM with native account-abstraction behavior and ETH fees before proof settlement to Ethereum. Those deposit-side events remain public. A Solana receipt uses a native SOL balance or SPL token account identified by mint; later token movement and account creation use SOL fees. The receipt and later activity remain public.
Public EVM deposit and public Solana delivery
zkSync Era exposes the 0x sender, gas, approvals, and deposit event. Solana exposes the receiving accounts, mint changes, program calls, signature, SOL fee, and later activity. Private Route does not make either record disappear.
USDC issuer and contract context
USDC is an issued dollar-oriented stablecoin with canonical, native, and bridged variants across networks. Contract events and issuer controls differ from a network-native gas asset. Both bridge sides can expose contract events, amounts, receiving services, and later transfers; a stable target value does not make those records private or interchangeable.
USDC native, canonical, or bridged evidence; USDC native, canonical, or bridged evidence
The exact USDC representation determines the public contract or native record. Issuer controls, transfer events, receiving services, amount, timing, and later use remain outside any promise of invisibility. 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. The source transfer remains public. The exact USDC representation determines the public contract or native record. Issuer controls, transfer events, receiving services, amount, timing, and later use remain outside any promise of invisibility. The wallet must support the destination USDC native label or contract. Receipt does not automatically supply the destination network’s gas asset. 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 EVM deposit account and Solana receiving account. The 0x transaction, approval, gas, Solana signature, token-account changes, amounts, and timing remain public evidence. 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. A Solana receipt uses a native SOL balance or SPL token account identified by mint; later token movement and account creation use SOL fees. The wallet must support the destination USDC native label or contract. Receipt does not automatically supply the destination network’s gas asset.
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 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. A Solana receipt uses a native SOL balance or SPL token account identified by mint; later token movement and account creation use SOL fees. The wallet must support the destination USDC native label or contract. Receipt does not automatically supply the destination network’s gas asset.
