What you need to know

ETH input identity and handling

Ethereum is classified as a native asset for this route. ETH uses a network-specific contract asset on Hyperliquid (HyperEVM). The recorded Hyperliquid (HyperEVM) representation uses 18 decimal places. 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.

From Hyperliquid (HyperEVM) L1 into Linea L2

Hyperliquid (HyperEVM) source execution occurs on L1, while Linea delivery occurs on a separate L2 ledger that settles to ethereum. HYPE pays source gas and ETH is the destination gas asset; identical-looking wallet addresses do not merge the balances or transaction histories.

WBTC wrapped-token output check

WBTC is a custodial tokenized Bitcoin representation on smart-contract networks. Its transfers use token contracts and approvals rather than native Bitcoin inputs and outputs. On this route WBTC is the destination token on Linea. Its token balance, approvals, and contract transfer behavior are separate from the native coin used for network gas.

Linea destination execution

Linea is a L2 EVM network in the Ethereum ecosystem. ETH pays destination-side network gas on Linea. EVM 0x account address A Linea receipt is recorded on the zkEVM L2 before the related proof settles to Ethereum; later activity needs ETH on Linea and the Linea token contract.

WBTC output identity and receiving

Wrapped Bitcoin is classified as a wrapped asset for this route. WBTC uses a wrapped contract asset on Linea. The recorded Linea representation uses 8 decimal places. WBTC arrives as a wrapper-contract token and must not be sent onward to a native Bitcoin address without an explicit unwrap or bridge path.

Hyperliquid (HyperEVM) source execution

Hyperliquid (HyperEVM) is a L1 EVM network in the Hyperliquid ecosystem. HYPE pays source-side network gas on Hyperliquid (HyperEVM). EVM 0x account address; confirm the destination is HyperEVM A HyperEVM source spends HYPE for EVM gas; HyperCore balances, vault positions, and other Hyperliquid account states are not interchangeable inputs.

EVM-to-EVM execution boundary

Hyperliquid (HyperEVM) and Linea 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 ETH Hyperliquid (HyperEVM) to WBTC Linea

Route-specific mistakes include sending on a network other than Hyperliquid (HyperEVM); using a destination that is not valid for Linea; running out of HYPE before the source transaction is submitted; treating a wrapped token as the native gas asset. 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. A Linea receipt is recorded on the zkEVM L2 before the related proof settles to Ethereum; later activity needs ETH on Linea and the Linea token contract. WBTC arrives as a wrapper-contract token and must not be sent onward to a native Bitcoin address without an explicit unwrap or bridge path.

Private Route for ETH → WBTC

Hyperliquid (HyperEVM) wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public, and Linea wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public. For this ETH on Hyperliquid (HyperEVM) to WBTC on Linea path, Private Route is intended to reduce the direct visible relationship between activity around the source-side EVM 0x account address; confirm the destination is HyperEVM and destination-side EVM 0x account address; it does not hide either chain's public records.
