BNB is classified as a native asset for this route. BNB uses a network-specific contract asset on Ethereum. The Ethereum side is contract-tracked rather than a native gas balance. Native BNB can fund value and BSC gas, while tokenized BNB requires the source chain’s gas asset and contract handling.
Polygon is a L1 EVM network in the Polygon ecosystem. POL pays destination-side network gas on Polygon. EVM 0x account address A Polygon PoS receipt follows Polygon token contracts and checkpointed execution; later movement uses POL gas rather than Ethereum L1 gas.
Chainlink is classified as a governance or utility token for this route. LINK uses a network-specific contract asset on Polygon. The recorded Polygon representation uses 18 decimal places. LINK arrives as a network-specific contract balance. The wallet still needs the destination native asset before it can transfer or approve LINK later.
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.
Ethereum and Polygon can use the same 0x address syntax, but they are separate networks with different chain identifiers, gas balances, token contracts, and transaction histories.
Route-specific mistakes include sending on a network other than Ethereum; using a destination that is not valid for Polygon; 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. Native BNB can fund value and BSC gas, while tokenized BNB requires the source chain’s gas asset and contract handling. A Polygon PoS receipt follows Polygon token contracts and checkpointed execution; later movement uses POL gas rather than Ethereum L1 gas. LINK arrives as a network-specific contract balance. The wallet still needs the destination native asset before it can transfer or approve LINK later.
Ethereum wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public, and Polygon wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public. For this BNB on Ethereum to LINK on Polygon 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.
BNB is a contract representation on Ethereum at 0xb8c77482e45f1f44de1745f52c74426c631bdd52. ETH, not BNB, 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. Native BNB can fund value and BSC gas, while tokenized BNB requires the source chain’s gas asset and contract handling.
LINK is a contract representation on Polygon with 18 decimals at 0x53E0bca35eC356BD5ddDFebbD1Fc0fD03FaBad39. POL, not LINK, pays gas unless both symbols are the same. A Polygon PoS receipt follows Polygon token contracts and checkpointed execution; later movement uses POL gas rather than Ethereum L1 gas. LINK arrives as a network-specific contract balance. The wallet still needs the destination native asset before it can transfer or approve LINK later.
Native BNB can fund value and BSC gas, while tokenized BNB requires the source chain’s gas asset and contract handling. On receipt, LINK arrives as a network-specific contract balance. The wallet still needs the destination native asset before it can transfer or approve LINK later.
BNB is the deposited native-asset input; LINK is the quoted token output. Source allowance or native-spend rules and destination wallet/representation checks are evaluated separately.
Native BNB can fund value and BSC gas, while tokenized BNB requires the source chain’s gas asset and contract handling. 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.

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. BNB is token-tracked and can need approval before transfer.
Sending BNB on a network other than Ethereum, or using an address that is not valid for Polygon, can prevent detection or delivery. Match both network labels and representations to the active route.
Requirements are checked for the live BNB Ethereum to LINK Polygon 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.
