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.
Hyperliquid (HyperEVM) source execution occurs on L1, while Arbitrum 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.
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.
POL (ex-MATIC) is classified as a governance or utility token for this route. POL uses a network-specific contract asset on Arbitrum. The recorded Arbitrum representation uses 18 decimal places. On Polygon PoS, native POL can support later gas; a POL contract on another network does not inherit that native function.
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.
Hyperliquid (HyperEVM) 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.
Route-specific mistakes include sending on a network other than Hyperliquid (HyperEVM); using a destination that is not valid for Arbitrum; 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 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. On Polygon PoS, native POL can support later gas; a POL contract on another network does not inherit that native function.
Hyperliquid (HyperEVM) wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public, and Arbitrum wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public. For this LINK on Hyperliquid (HyperEVM) to POL on Arbitrum 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.
LINK is a contract representation on Hyperliquid (HyperEVM) at 0x1ac2ee68b8d038c982c1e1f73f596927dd70de59. HYPE, not LINK, 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. 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.
POL is a contract representation on Arbitrum with 18 decimals at 0x044d8e7F3A17751D521efEa8CCf9282268fE08CC. ETH, not POL, pays gas unless both symbols are the same. 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. On Polygon PoS, native POL can support later gas; a POL contract on another network does not inherit that native function.
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. On receipt, On Polygon PoS, native POL can support later gas; a POL contract on another network does not inherit that native function.
LINK is the deposited token input; POL is the quoted token output. Source allowance or native-spend rules and destination wallet/representation checks are evaluated separately.
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 HyperEVM source spends HYPE for EVM gas; HyperCore balances, vault positions, and other Hyperliquid account states are not interchangeable inputs. 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. On Polygon PoS, native POL can support later gas; a POL contract on another network does not inherit that native function.
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. LINK is token-tracked and can need approval before transfer.
Sending LINK on a network other than Hyperliquid (HyperEVM), or using an address that is not valid for Arbitrum, can prevent detection or delivery. Match both network labels and representations to the active route.
Requirements are checked for the live LINK Hyperliquid to POL Arbitrum 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.
