Solana uses Solana accounts and SOL for source fees, while Arbitrum uses an EVM 0x account and ETH for destination gas. Confirm the destination token contract and do not paste a Solana address into the EVM destination field. LINK is read from its Solana mint or native account, while WBTC arrives at the quoted Arbitrum native or contract representation.
Base58-encoded Solana account address SOL is the native gas asset for Solana. A Solana source signs over accounts or token accounts, identifies SPL assets by mint, and spends SOL for transaction fees. 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. The mint/account selected by the quote must match the source wallet balance.
EVM 0x account address ETH is the native gas asset for Arbitrum. 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. WBTC arrives as a wrapper-contract token and must not be sent onward to a native Bitcoin address without an explicit unwrap or bridge path. A Solana address cannot receive this EVM-side output.
WBTC is a custodial tokenized Bitcoin representation on smart-contract networks. Its transfers use token contracts and approvals rather than native Bitcoin inputs and outputs. On this route WBTC is the destination token on Arbitrum. Its token balance, approvals, and contract transfer behavior are separate from the native coin used for network gas.
Route-specific mistakes include sending on a network other than Solana; using a destination that is not valid for Arbitrum; running out of SOL before the source transaction is submitted; assuming solana and evm addresses are interchangeable; treating a wrapped token as the native gas asset. A Solana source signs over accounts or token accounts, identifies SPL assets by mint, and spends SOL for transaction fees. 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. WBTC arrives as a wrapper-contract token and must not be sent onward to a native Bitcoin address without an explicit unwrap or bridge path.
Chainlink is classified as a governance or utility token for this route. LINK uses a network-specific contract asset on Solana. The Solana 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.
Wrapped Bitcoin is classified as a wrapped asset for this route. WBTC uses a wrapped contract asset on Arbitrum. The recorded Arbitrum representation uses 8 decimal places. WBTC arrives as a wrapper-contract token and must not be sent onward to a native Bitcoin address without an explicit unwrap or bridge path.
Solana account, token, program, signature, and fee activity remain public, and Arbitrum wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public. For this LINK on Solana to WBTC on Arbitrum path, Private Route is intended to reduce the direct visible relationship between activity around the source-side Base58-encoded Solana account address and destination-side EVM 0x account address; it does not hide either chain's public records.
No. EVM 0x account address The WBTC output belongs to the quoted EVM representation.
SOL pays source fees on Solana. ETH pays later transactions on Arbitrum; the delivered WBTC does not replace that gas balance unless it is the native asset.
LINK is a contract representation on Solana at LinkhB3afbBKb2EQQu7s7umdZceV3wcvAUJhQAfQ23L. SOL, not LINK, pays gas unless both symbols are the same. A Solana source signs over accounts or token accounts, identifies SPL assets by mint, and spends SOL for transaction fees. 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.
WBTC is a contract representation on Arbitrum with 8 decimals at 0x2f2a2543B76A4166549F7aaB2e75Bef0aefC5B0f. ETH, not WBTC, 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. WBTC arrives as a wrapper-contract token and must not be sent onward to a native Bitcoin address without an explicit unwrap or bridge path.
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, WBTC arrives as a wrapper-contract token and must not be sent onward to a native Bitcoin address without an explicit unwrap or bridge path.
LINK is the deposited token input; WBTC is the quoted wrapped-asset 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 Solana source signs over accounts or token accounts, identifies SPL assets by mint, and spends SOL for transaction fees. 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. WBTC arrives as a wrapper-contract token and must not be sent onward to a native Bitcoin address without an explicit unwrap or bridge path.
Requirements are checked for the live LINK Solana to WBTC 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.
