Move from a Solana account into zkSync Era EVM

Solana uses Solana accounts and SOL for source fees, while zkSync Era uses an EVM 0x account and ETH for destination gas. Confirm the destination token contract and do not paste a Solana address into the EVM destination field. AVAX is read from its Solana mint or native account, while ETH arrives at the quoted zkSync Era native or contract representation.

AVAX mint and SOL fee checks

Base58-encoded Solana account address SOL is the native gas asset for Solana. A Solana source signs over accounts or token accounts, identifies SPL assets by mint, and spends SOL for transaction fees. 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. The mint/account selected by the quote must match the source wallet balance.

zkSync Era contract and 0x receiving checks

EVM 0x account address ETH is the native gas asset for zkSync Era. 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. A Solana address cannot receive this EVM-side output.

Mistakes specific to AVAX Solana to ETH zkSync Era

Route-specific mistakes include sending on a network other than Solana; using a destination that is not valid for zkSync Era; running out of SOL before the source transaction is submitted; assuming solana and evm addresses are interchangeable. A Solana source signs over accounts or token accounts, identifies SPL assets by mint, and spends SOL for transaction fees. 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 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.

AVAX input identity and handling

Avalanche is classified as a native asset for this route. AVAX uses a network-specific contract asset on Solana. The recorded Solana representation uses 8 decimal places. 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.

ETH output identity and receiving

Ethereum is classified as a native asset for this route. ETH uses a native asset on zkSync Era. The recorded zkSync Era representation uses 18 decimal places. Determine whether ETH arrives as native destination gas or as a tokenized representation. Only the native balance can directly pay that network’s fees.

Private Route for AVAX → ETH

Solana account, token, program, signature, and fee activity remain public, and zkSync Era wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public. For this AVAX on Solana to ETH on zkSync Era path, Private Route is intended to reduce the direct visible relationship between activity around the source-side Base58-encoded Solana account address and destination-side EVM 0x account address; it does not hide either chain's public records.

What exactly leaves Solana as AVAX?

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.
