Arbitrum is classified as a governance or utility token for this route. ARB uses a network-specific contract asset on Ethereum. The Ethereum side is contract-tracked rather than a native gas balance. Sending ARB can require a token allowance, while ETH—not ARB—must fund Arbitrum gas. Verify the outbound ARB contract if the source is not Arbitrum.
POL (ex-MATIC) is classified as a governance or utility token for this route. POL uses a network-specific contract asset on Ethereum. The Ethereum side is contract-tracked rather than a native gas balance. On Polygon PoS, native POL can support later gas; a POL contract on another network does not inherit that native function.
Ethereum is a L1 EVM network in the Ethereum ecosystem. ETH pays source-side network gas on Ethereum. EVM 0x account address An Ethereum source pays L1 base and priority fees in ETH, and an ERC-20 input can require a separate approval before the route deposit.
Route-specific mistakes include sending on a network other than Ethereum; using a destination that is not valid for Ethereum; running out of ETH before the source transaction is submitted. An Ethereum source pays L1 base and priority fees in ETH, and an ERC-20 input can require a separate approval before the route deposit. Sending ARB can require a token allowance, while ETH—not ARB—must fund Arbitrum gas. Verify the outbound ARB contract if the source is not Arbitrum. 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. On Polygon PoS, native POL can support later gas; a POL contract on another network does not inherit that native function.
Sending ARB can require a token allowance, while ETH—not ARB—must fund Arbitrum gas. Verify the outbound ARB contract if the source is not Arbitrum. On Polygon PoS, native POL can support later gas; a POL contract on another network does not inherit that native function.
Ethereum wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public. For this ARB on Ethereum to POL on Ethereum path, Private Route is intended to reduce the direct visible relationship between activity around the source-side EVM 0x account address and destination-side EVM 0x account address; it does not hide either chain's public records.
ARB is a contract representation on Ethereum at 0xb50721bcf8d664c30412cfbc6cf7a15145234ad1. ETH, not ARB, pays gas unless both symbols are the same. An Ethereum source pays L1 base and priority fees in ETH, and an ERC-20 input can require a separate approval before the route deposit. Sending ARB can require a token allowance, while ETH—not ARB—must fund Arbitrum gas. Verify the outbound ARB contract if the source is not Arbitrum.
POL is a contract representation on Ethereum at 0x455e53cbb86018ac2b8092fdcd39d8444affc3f6. ETH, not POL, pays gas unless both symbols are the same. 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. On Polygon PoS, native POL can support later gas; a POL contract on another network does not inherit that native function.
Sending ARB can require a token allowance, while ETH—not ARB—must fund Arbitrum gas. Verify the outbound ARB contract if the source is not Arbitrum. On receipt, On Polygon PoS, native POL can support later gas; a POL contract on another network does not inherit that native function.
ARB is the deposited token input; POL is the quoted token output. Source allowance or native-spend rules and destination wallet/representation checks are evaluated separately.
Sending ARB can require a token allowance, while ETH—not ARB—must fund Arbitrum gas. Verify the outbound ARB contract if the source is not Arbitrum. An Ethereum source pays L1 base and priority fees in ETH, and an ERC-20 input can require a separate approval before the route deposit. 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. On Polygon PoS, native POL can support later gas; a POL contract on another network does not inherit that native function.
ETH is the native gas asset for Ethereum. An Ethereum source pays L1 base and priority fees in ETH, and an ERC-20 input can require a separate approval before the route deposit. ARB is token-tracked and can need approval before transfer.
Requirements are checked for the live ARB Ethereum to POL Ethereum 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.
