What exactly leaves zkSync Era as BNB?
BNB is a contract representation on zkSync Era with 18 decimals at 0x7400793aAd94C8CA801aa036357d10F5Fd0ce08f. ETH, not BNB, pays gas unless both symbols are the same. A zkSync Era source executes in EraVM with native account-abstraction behavior and ETH fees before proof settlement to Ethereum. 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 BNB Chain as ARB?
ARB is a contract representation on BNB Chain with 18 decimals at 0x0acdb582C1d5512Ea31fD64b9C07882CB31E494D. BNB, not ARB, pays gas unless both symbols are the same. A BNB Smart Chain receipt uses the BEP-20 contract or native BNB balance selected by the route; later token movement needs BNB gas. A receiving wallet should show the exact ARB contract on the destination. Receipt does not fund ETH gas for later token movement.
Why does the BNB to ARB 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, A receiving wallet should show the exact ARB contract on the destination. Receipt does not fund ETH gas for later token movement.
What changes between the source and destination asset roles?
BNB is the deposited native-asset input; ARB 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 zkSync Era source executes in EraVM with native account-abstraction behavior and ETH fees before proof settlement to Ethereum. A BNB Smart Chain receipt uses the BEP-20 contract or native BNB balance selected by the route; later token movement needs BNB gas. A receiving wallet should show the exact ARB contract on the destination. Receipt does not fund ETH gas for later token movement.
What funds the zkSync Era source transaction?
ETH is the native gas asset for zkSync Era. A zkSync Era source executes in EraVM with native account-abstraction behavior and ETH fees before proof settlement to Ethereum. 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 zkSync Era, or using an address that is not valid for BNB Chain, can prevent detection or delivery. Match both network labels and representations to the active route.
Can I swap BNB on zkSync to ARB on BSC without KYC?
Requirements are checked for the live BNB zkSync to ARB BSC 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.
