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 zkSync Era. The recorded zkSync Era 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 zkSync Era L2 for BNB Chain L1

zkSync Era 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.

SOL output identity and receiving

Solana is classified as a native asset for this route. SOL uses a network-specific contract asset on BNB Chain. The recorded BNB Chain representation uses 18 decimal places. Native SOL receipt uses a Solana address and can fund later fees; wrapped SOL uses an SPL token account and tokenized SOL elsewhere is not native.

zkSync Era source execution

zkSync Era is a L2 EVM network in the Ethereum ecosystem. ETH pays source-side network gas on zkSync Era. EVM 0x account address A zkSync Era source executes in EraVM with native account-abstraction behavior and ETH fees before proof settlement to Ethereum.

EVM-to-EVM execution boundary

zkSync Era 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 zkSync Era to SOL BNB Chain

Route-specific mistakes include sending on a network other than zkSync Era; using a destination that is not valid for BNB Chain; running out of ETH before the source transaction is submitted. 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. A BNB Smart Chain receipt uses the BEP-20 contract or native BNB balance selected by the route; later token movement needs BNB gas. Native SOL receipt uses a Solana address and can fund later fees; wrapped SOL uses an SPL token account and tokenized SOL elsewhere is not native.

Private Route for BNB → SOL

zkSync Era 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 zkSync Era to SOL 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.

Swap BNB on zkSync Era to SOL on BNB Chain FAQs

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 SOL?

SOL is a contract representation on BNB Chain with 18 decimals at 0x570A5D26f7765Ecb712C0924E4De545B89fD43dF. BNB, not SOL, 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. Native SOL receipt uses a Solana address and can fund later fees; wrapped SOL uses an SPL token account and tokenized SOL elsewhere is not native.

Why does the BNB to SOL 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, Native SOL receipt uses a Solana address and can fund later fees; wrapped SOL uses an SPL token account and tokenized SOL elsewhere is not native.

What changes between the source and destination asset roles?

BNB is the deposited native-asset input; SOL is the quoted native-asset 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. Native SOL receipt uses a Solana address and can fund later fees; wrapped SOL uses an SPL token account and tokenized SOL elsewhere is not native.

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 SOL on BSC without KYC?

Requirements are checked for the live BNB zkSync to SOL 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.
