What you need to know

Convert the Ethereum 0x input into a Solana-account receipt

Ethereum uses EVM account addresses and ETH for source gas. Solana uses Solana accounts, transaction signatures, and SOL for destination activity. A 0x address is not a valid substitute for the Solana receiving address shown by the route. LINK uses LINK contract token on the source; HYPE uses HYPE contract token on Solana.

Solana token-account check for HYPE

Base58-encoded Solana account address A Solana receipt uses a native SOL balance or SPL token account identified by mint; later token movement and account creation use SOL fees. Confirm receipt in HyperEVM rather than HyperCore or another Hyperliquid environment; the destination context determines whether HYPE is spendable gas. A compatible wallet may create or use an associated token account, and SOL—not HYPE unless it is SOL—pays later Solana fees.

Ethereum approval and gas before the handoff

ETH is the native gas asset for Ethereum. LINK is contract-tracked and can require an allowance before transfer. An Ethereum source pays L1 base and priority fees in ETH, and an ERC-20 input can require a separate approval before the route deposit.

Mistakes specific to LINK Ethereum to HYPE Solana

Route-specific mistakes include sending on a network other than Ethereum; using a destination that is not valid for Solana; running out of ETH before the source transaction is submitted; assuming evm and solana addresses are interchangeable. An Ethereum source pays L1 base and priority fees in ETH, and an ERC-20 input can require a separate approval before the route deposit. LINK is a contract-token input, so the source wallet needs the network’s native gas asset and may need to approve the exact LINK contract. A Solana receipt uses a native SOL balance or SPL token account identified by mint; later token movement and account creation use SOL fees. Confirm receipt in HyperEVM rather than HyperCore or another Hyperliquid environment; the destination context determines whether HYPE is spendable gas.

LINK input identity and handling

Chainlink is classified as a governance or utility token for this route. LINK uses a network-specific contract asset on Ethereum. The Ethereum side is contract-tracked rather than a native gas balance. LINK is a contract-token input, so the source wallet needs the network’s native gas asset and may need to approve the exact LINK contract.

HYPE output identity and receiving

Hyperliquid is classified as a native asset for this route. HYPE uses a network-specific contract asset on Solana. The recorded Solana representation uses 9 decimal places. Confirm receipt in HyperEVM rather than HyperCore or another Hyperliquid environment; the destination context determines whether HYPE is spendable gas.

Private Route for LINK → HYPE

Ethereum wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public, and Solana account, token, program, signature, and fee activity remain public. For this LINK on Ethereum to HYPE on Solana path, Private Route is intended to reduce the direct visible relationship between activity around the source-side EVM 0x account address and destination-side Base58-encoded Solana account address; it does not hide either chain's public records.
