What exactly leaves Avalanche as AVAX?
AVAX is listed as the native representation on Avalanche; AVAX is used for network gas. An Avalanche source route uses C-Chain Snowman execution and AVAX gas; X-Chain or P-Chain balances are not valid C-Chain deposits. On Avalanche C-Chain, native AVAX funds both the transfer value and gas; on another chain, an AVAX-labelled contract behaves as a token input instead.
What exactly arrives on zkSync Era as ETH?
ETH is listed as the native representation on zkSync Era; ETH is used for network gas. A zkSync Era receipt belongs to EraVM account state and uses ETH for later fees; proof settlement to Ethereum remains distinct from L2 delivery. Determine whether ETH arrives as native destination gas or as a tokenized representation. Only the native balance can directly pay that network’s fees.
Why does the AVAX to ETH direction matter?
On Avalanche C-Chain, native AVAX funds both the transfer value and gas; on another chain, an AVAX-labelled contract behaves as a token input instead. On receipt, Determine whether ETH arrives as native destination gas or as a tokenized representation. Only the native balance can directly pay that network’s fees.
What changes between the source and destination asset roles?
AVAX is the deposited native-asset input; ETH is the quoted native-asset output. Source allowance or native-spend rules and destination wallet/representation checks are evaluated separately.
What should be matched before sending AVAX?
On Avalanche C-Chain, native AVAX funds both the transfer value and gas; on another chain, an AVAX-labelled contract behaves as a token input instead. An Avalanche source route uses C-Chain Snowman execution and AVAX gas; X-Chain or P-Chain balances are not valid C-Chain deposits. A zkSync Era receipt belongs to EraVM account state and uses ETH for later fees; proof settlement to Ethereum remains distinct from L2 delivery. Determine whether ETH arrives as native destination gas or as a tokenized representation. Only the native balance can directly pay that network’s fees.
What funds the Avalanche source transaction?
AVAX is the native gas asset for Avalanche. An Avalanche source route uses C-Chain Snowman execution and AVAX gas; X-Chain or P-Chain balances are not valid C-Chain deposits. AVAX is recorded as native on this source.
What is the most dangerous wrong-network mistake here?
Sending AVAX on a network other than Avalanche, or using an address that is not valid for zkSync Era, can prevent detection or delivery. Match both network labels and representations to the active route.
Can I swap AVAX on Avalanche to ETH on zkSync without KYC?
Requirements are checked for the live AVAX Avalanche to ETH zkSync 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.
