What you need to know

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 Hyperliquid (HyperEVM). The Hyperliquid (HyperEVM) 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.

Avalanche destination execution

Avalanche is a L1 EVM network in the Avalanche ecosystem. AVAX pays destination-side network gas on Avalanche. EVM 0x account address An Avalanche destination must be a C-Chain-compatible account; native AVAX can fund later C-Chain gas, while token receipt uses the quoted C-Chain contract.

AVAX output identity and receiving

Avalanche is classified as a native asset for this route. AVAX uses a native asset on Avalanche. The recorded Avalanche representation uses 18 decimal places. Native Avalanche receipt belongs on C-Chain and can fund later gas; an AVAX token on another chain remains a contract balance.

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 Avalanche can use the same 0x address syntax, but they are separate networks with different chain identifiers, gas balances, token contracts, and transaction histories.

Mistakes specific to LINK Hyperliquid (HyperEVM) to AVAX Avalanche

Route-specific mistakes include sending on a network other than Hyperliquid (HyperEVM); using a destination that is not valid for Avalanche; running out of HYPE before the source transaction is submitted. A HyperEVM source spends HYPE for EVM gas; HyperCore balances, vault positions, and other Hyperliquid account states are not interchangeable inputs. 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. An Avalanche destination must be a C-Chain-compatible account; native AVAX can fund later C-Chain gas, while token receipt uses the quoted C-Chain contract. Native Avalanche receipt belongs on C-Chain and can fund later gas; an AVAX token on another chain remains a contract balance.

Private Route for LINK → AVAX

Hyperliquid (HyperEVM) wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public, and Avalanche wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public. For this LINK on Hyperliquid (HyperEVM) to AVAX on Avalanche 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.
