What exactly leaves Hyperliquid (HyperEVM) as ETH?
ETH is a contract representation on Hyperliquid (HyperEVM) with 18 decimals at 0x1fbcCdc677c10671eE50b46C61F0f7d135112450. HYPE, not ETH, pays gas unless both symbols are the same. A HyperEVM source spends HYPE for EVM gas; HyperCore balances, vault positions, and other Hyperliquid account states are not interchangeable inputs. Native ETH can fund both transfer value and gas on its selected network. If the source is WETH or another tokenized form, approval and unwrap or exchange logic differ.
What exactly arrives on Polygon as AVAX?
AVAX is a contract representation on Polygon with 18 decimals at 0x2C89bbc92BD86F8075d1DEcc58C7F4E0107f286b. POL, not AVAX, 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. Native Avalanche receipt belongs on C-Chain and can fund later gas; an AVAX token on another chain remains a contract balance.
Why does the ETH to AVAX direction matter?
Native ETH can fund both transfer value and gas on its selected network. If the source is WETH or another tokenized form, approval and unwrap or exchange logic differ. On receipt, Native Avalanche receipt belongs on C-Chain and can fund later gas; an AVAX token on another chain remains a contract balance.
What changes between the source and destination asset roles?
ETH is the deposited native-asset input; AVAX 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 ETH?
Native ETH can fund both transfer value and gas on its selected network. If the source is WETH or another tokenized form, approval and unwrap or exchange logic differ. A HyperEVM source spends HYPE for EVM gas; HyperCore balances, vault positions, and other Hyperliquid account states are not interchangeable inputs. A Polygon PoS receipt follows Polygon token contracts and checkpointed execution; later movement uses POL gas rather than Ethereum L1 gas. Native Avalanche receipt belongs on C-Chain and can fund later gas; an AVAX token on another chain remains a contract balance.
What funds the Hyperliquid (HyperEVM) source transaction?
HYPE is the native gas asset for Hyperliquid (HyperEVM). A HyperEVM source spends HYPE for EVM gas; HyperCore balances, vault positions, and other Hyperliquid account states are not interchangeable inputs. ETH is token-tracked and can need approval before transfer.
What is the most dangerous wrong-network mistake here?
Sending ETH on a network other than Hyperliquid (HyperEVM), 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.
Can I swap ETH on Hyperliquid to AVAX on Polygon without KYC?
Requirements are checked for the live ETH Hyperliquid to AVAX 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.
