What exactly leaves Polygon as BNB?
BNB is a contract representation on Polygon with 18 decimals at 0x5c4b7CCBF908E64F32e12c6650ec0C96d717f03F. POL, not BNB, pays gas unless both symbols are the same. A Polygon PoS source uses its validator/checkpoint system and POL gas; its token contracts and checkpoints are separate from Ethereum L1. Native BNB can fund value and BSC gas, while tokenized BNB requires the source chain’s gas asset and contract handling.
What exactly arrives on Hyperliquid (HyperEVM) as LINK?
LINK is a contract representation on Hyperliquid (HyperEVM) at 0x1ac2ee68b8d038c982c1e1f73f596927dd70de59. HYPE, not LINK, pays gas unless both symbols are the same. A HyperEVM receipt belongs to its EVM execution state and uses HYPE for later gas; it should not be interpreted as a HyperCore position or vault 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.
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?
Native BNB can fund value and BSC gas, while tokenized BNB requires the source chain’s gas asset and contract handling. A Polygon PoS source uses its validator/checkpoint system and POL gas; its token contracts and checkpoints are separate from Ethereum L1. A HyperEVM receipt belongs to its EVM execution state and uses HYPE for later gas; it should not be interpreted as a HyperCore position or vault 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.
What funds the Polygon source transaction?
POL is the native gas asset for Polygon. A Polygon PoS source uses its validator/checkpoint system and POL gas; its token contracts and checkpoints are separate from Ethereum L1. BNB is token-tracked and can need approval before transfer.
What is the most dangerous wrong-network mistake here?
Sending BNB on a network other than Polygon, or using an address that is not valid for Hyperliquid (HyperEVM), can prevent detection or delivery. Match both network labels and representations to the active route.
Can I swap BNB on Polygon to LINK on Hyperliquid without KYC?
Requirements are checked for the live BNB Polygon to LINK Hyperliquid 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.
