What you need to know

BNB input identity and handling

BNB is classified as a native asset for this route. BNB uses a network-specific contract asset on Linea. The recorded Linea representation uses 18 decimal places. Native BNB can fund value and BSC gas, while tokenized BNB requires the source chain’s gas asset and contract handling.

Leaving Linea L2 for BNB Chain L1

Linea inclusion and its ethereum settlement are distinct from final receipt on BNB Chain. The live route, rather than a generic rollup withdrawal assumption, determines the provider path and timing for this direction.

BNB Chain destination execution

BNB Chain is a L1 EVM network in the BNB Chain ecosystem. BNB pays destination-side network gas on BNB Chain. EVM 0x account address A BNB Smart Chain receipt uses the BEP-20 contract or native BNB balance selected by the route; later token movement needs BNB gas.

LINK output identity and receiving

Chainlink is classified as a governance or utility token for this route. LINK uses a network-specific contract asset on BNB Chain. The BNB Chain side is contract-tracked rather than a native gas balance. LINK arrives as a network-specific contract balance. The wallet still needs the destination native asset before it can transfer or approve LINK later.

Linea source execution

Linea is a L2 EVM network in the Ethereum ecosystem. ETH pays source-side network gas on Linea. EVM 0x account address A Linea source is executed on the zkEVM rollup and later proven to Ethereum; L2 inclusion and proof settlement are distinct source milestones.

EVM-to-EVM execution boundary

Linea and BNB Chain can use the same 0x address syntax, but they are separate networks with different chain identifiers, gas balances, token contracts, and transaction histories. The recorded settlement context includes ethereum, so L1 and L2 confirmation behavior should not be assumed identical.

Mistakes specific to BNB Linea to LINK BNB Chain

Route-specific mistakes include sending on a network other than Linea; using a destination that is not valid for BNB Chain; running out of ETH before the source transaction is submitted. A Linea source is executed on the zkEVM rollup and later proven to Ethereum; L2 inclusion and proof settlement are distinct source milestones. Native BNB can fund value and BSC gas, while tokenized BNB requires the source chain’s gas asset and contract handling. A BNB Smart Chain receipt uses the BEP-20 contract or native BNB balance selected by the route; later token movement needs BNB 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.

Private Route for BNB → LINK

Linea wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public, and BNB Chain wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public. For this BNB on Linea to LINK on BNB Chain 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.

Why does the BNB to LINK direction matter?

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.

What changes between the source and destination asset roles?

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.

What should be matched before sending BNB?
