What exactly leaves Linea as AVAX?
AVAX is a contract representation on Linea with 18 decimals at 0x5471ea8f739dd37E9B81Be9c5c77754D8AA953E4. ETH, not AVAX, pays gas unless both symbols are the same. A Linea source is executed on the zkEVM rollup and later proven to Ethereum; L2 inclusion and proof settlement are distinct source milestones. 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 Optimism as OP?
OP is a contract representation on Optimism at 0x4200000000000000000000000000000000000042. ETH, not OP, pays gas unless both symbols are the same. An OP Mainnet receipt belongs to the OP Stack L2 and needs ETH on that network for later activity; it is not an Ethereum L1 balance. OP receipt is a governance-token balance, not destination gas. Verify the destination contract and keep ETH available for OP Mainnet activity.
Why does the AVAX to OP 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, OP receipt is a governance-token balance, not destination gas. Verify the destination contract and keep ETH available for OP Mainnet activity.
What changes between the source and destination asset roles?
AVAX is the deposited native-asset input; OP is the quoted token 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. A Linea source is executed on the zkEVM rollup and later proven to Ethereum; L2 inclusion and proof settlement are distinct source milestones. An OP Mainnet receipt belongs to the OP Stack L2 and needs ETH on that network for later activity; it is not an Ethereum L1 balance. OP receipt is a governance-token balance, not destination gas. Verify the destination contract and keep ETH available for OP Mainnet activity.
What funds the Linea source transaction?
ETH is the native gas asset for Linea. A Linea source is executed on the zkEVM rollup and later proven to Ethereum; L2 inclusion and proof settlement are distinct source milestones. AVAX is token-tracked and can need approval before transfer.
What is the most dangerous wrong-network mistake here?
Sending AVAX on a network other than Linea, or using an address that is not valid for Optimism, can prevent detection or delivery. Match both network labels and representations to the active route.
Can I swap AVAX on Linea to OP on OP Mainnet without KYC?
Requirements are checked for the live AVAX Linea to OP OP Mainnet 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.
