What exactly leaves Polygon as LINK?
LINK is a contract representation on Polygon with 18 decimals at 0x53E0bca35eC356BD5ddDFebbD1Fc0fD03FaBad39. POL, not LINK, pays gas unless both symbols are the same. A Polygon PoS source uses its validator/checkpoint system and POL gas; its token contracts and checkpoints are separate from Ethereum L1. 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.
What exactly arrives on BNB Chain as XRP?
XRP is a contract representation on BNB Chain with 18 decimals at 0x1D2F0da169ceB9fC7B3144628dB156f3F6c60dBE. BNB, not XRP, pays gas unless both symbols are the same. A BNB Smart Chain receipt uses the BEP-20 contract or native BNB balance selected by the route; later token movement needs BNB gas. Native XRP Ledger receipt can require a destination tag at a shared account; a tokenized XRP output instead follows the destination contract.
Why does the LINK to XRP direction matter?
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, Native XRP Ledger receipt can require a destination tag at a shared account; a tokenized XRP output instead follows the destination contract.
What changes between the source and destination asset roles?
LINK is the deposited token input; XRP is the quoted native-asset output. Source allowance or native-spend rules and destination wallet/representation checks are evaluated separately.
What should be matched before sending LINK?
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 Polygon PoS source uses its validator/checkpoint system and POL gas; its token contracts and checkpoints are separate from Ethereum L1. A BNB Smart Chain receipt uses the BEP-20 contract or native BNB balance selected by the route; later token movement needs BNB gas. Native XRP Ledger receipt can require a destination tag at a shared account; a tokenized XRP output instead follows the destination contract.
What funds the Polygon source transaction?
POL is the native gas asset for Polygon. A Polygon PoS source uses its validator/checkpoint system and POL gas; its token contracts and checkpoints are separate from Ethereum L1. LINK is token-tracked and can need approval before transfer.
What is the most dangerous wrong-network mistake here?
Sending LINK on a network other than Polygon, or using an address that is not valid for BNB Chain, can prevent detection or delivery. Match both network labels and representations to the active route.
Can I swap LINK on Polygon to XRP on BSC without KYC?
Requirements are checked for the live LINK Polygon to XRP BSC 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.
