What you need to know

ETH input identity and handling

Ethereum is classified as a native asset for this route. ETH uses a native asset on Linea. The recorded Linea 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.

Linea to Arbitrum L2 handoff

This route crosses two L2 execution environments. Linea settles to ethereum, while Arbitrum settles to ethereum; each side keeps its own gas balance, token contracts, transaction hash, and settlement progress.

Arbitrum destination execution

Arbitrum is a L2 EVM network in the Ethereum ecosystem. ETH pays destination-side network gas on Arbitrum. EVM 0x account address An Arbitrum receipt appears on the Nitro L2 ledger under an Arbitrum token contract or native ETH balance; later spending needs Arbitrum ETH while L1 settlement continues separately.

ARB output identity and receiving

Arbitrum is classified as a governance or utility token for this route. ARB uses a network-specific contract asset on Arbitrum. The Arbitrum side is contract-tracked rather than a native gas balance. A receiving wallet should show the exact ARB contract on the destination. Receipt does not fund ETH gas for later token movement.

Linea source execution

Linea is a L2 EVM network in the Ethereum ecosystem. ETH pays source-side network gas on Linea. EVM 0x account address A Linea source is executed on the zkEVM rollup and later proven to Ethereum; L2 inclusion and proof settlement are distinct source milestones.

EVM-to-EVM execution boundary

Linea and Arbitrum 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 Linea to ARB Arbitrum

Route-specific mistakes include sending on a network other than Linea; using a destination that is not valid for Arbitrum; running out of ETH before the source transaction is submitted. A Linea source is executed on the zkEVM rollup and later proven to Ethereum; L2 inclusion and proof settlement are distinct source milestones. 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. An Arbitrum receipt appears on the Nitro L2 ledger under an Arbitrum token contract or native ETH balance; later spending needs Arbitrum ETH while L1 settlement continues separately. A receiving wallet should show the exact ARB contract on the destination. Receipt does not fund ETH gas for later token movement.

Private Route for ETH → ARB

Linea wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public, and Arbitrum wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public. For this ETH on Linea to ARB on Arbitrum 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.
