What you need to know

POL input identity and handling

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. Native POL can pay Polygon PoS gas, while a POL-labelled contract on another network uses that chain’s gas and token-transfer rules.

Leaving Arbitrum L2 for BNB Chain L1

Arbitrum inclusion and its ethereum settlement are distinct from final receipt on BNB Chain. The live route, rather than a generic rollup withdrawal assumption, determines the provider path and timing for this direction.

BNB Chain destination execution

BNB Chain is a L1 EVM network in the BNB Chain ecosystem. BNB pays destination-side network gas on BNB Chain. EVM 0x account address A BNB Smart Chain receipt uses the BEP-20 contract or native BNB balance selected by the route; later token movement needs BNB gas.

SOL output identity and receiving

Solana is classified as a native asset for this route. SOL uses a network-specific contract asset on BNB Chain. The recorded BNB Chain representation uses 18 decimal places. Native SOL receipt uses a Solana address and can fund later fees; wrapped SOL uses an SPL token account and tokenized SOL elsewhere is not native.

Arbitrum source execution

Arbitrum is a L2 EVM network in the Ethereum ecosystem. ETH pays source-side network gas on Arbitrum. EVM 0x account address On an Arbitrum source, the Nitro sequencer records L2 execution before Ethereum settlement completes; ETH funds gas and ERC-20 inputs can need approval.

EVM-to-EVM execution boundary

Arbitrum and BNB Chain 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.

Mistakes specific to POL Arbitrum to SOL BNB Chain

Route-specific mistakes include sending on a network other than Arbitrum; using a destination that is not valid for BNB Chain; running out of ETH before the source transaction is submitted. On an Arbitrum source, the Nitro sequencer records L2 execution before Ethereum settlement completes; ETH funds gas and ERC-20 inputs can need approval. Native POL can pay Polygon PoS gas, while a POL-labelled contract on another network uses that chain’s gas and token-transfer rules. 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 SOL receipt uses a Solana address and can fund later fees; wrapped SOL uses an SPL token account and tokenized SOL elsewhere is not native.

Private Route for POL → SOL

Arbitrum wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public, and BNB Chain wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public. For this POL on Arbitrum to SOL on BNB Chain path, Private Route is intended to reduce the direct visible relationship between activity around the source-side EVM 0x account address and destination-side EVM 0x account address; it does not hide either chain's public records.

Swap POL on Arbitrum to SOL on BNB Chain FAQs

What exactly leaves Arbitrum as POL?

POL is a contract representation on Arbitrum with 18 decimals at 0x044d8e7F3A17751D521efEa8CCf9282268fE08CC. ETH, not POL, pays gas unless both symbols are the same. On an Arbitrum source, the Nitro sequencer records L2 execution before Ethereum settlement completes; ETH funds gas and ERC-20 inputs can need approval. Native POL can pay Polygon PoS gas, while a POL-labelled contract on another network uses that chain’s gas and token-transfer rules.

What exactly arrives on BNB Chain as SOL?

SOL is a contract representation on BNB Chain with 18 decimals at 0x570A5D26f7765Ecb712C0924E4De545B89fD43dF. BNB, not SOL, 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 SOL receipt uses a Solana address and can fund later fees; wrapped SOL uses an SPL token account and tokenized SOL elsewhere is not native.

Why does the POL to SOL direction matter?

Native POL can pay Polygon PoS gas, while a POL-labelled contract on another network uses that chain’s gas and token-transfer rules. On receipt, Native SOL receipt uses a Solana address and can fund later fees; wrapped SOL uses an SPL token account and tokenized SOL elsewhere is not native.

What changes between the source and destination asset roles?

POL is the deposited token input; SOL 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 POL?

Native POL can pay Polygon PoS gas, while a POL-labelled contract on another network uses that chain’s gas and token-transfer rules. On an Arbitrum source, the Nitro sequencer records L2 execution before Ethereum settlement completes; ETH funds gas and ERC-20 inputs can need approval. 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 SOL receipt uses a Solana address and can fund later fees; wrapped SOL uses an SPL token account and tokenized SOL elsewhere is not native.

What funds the Arbitrum source transaction?

ETH is the native gas asset for Arbitrum. On an Arbitrum source, the Nitro sequencer records L2 execution before Ethereum settlement completes; ETH funds gas and ERC-20 inputs can need approval. POL is token-tracked and can need approval before transfer.

What is the most dangerous wrong-network mistake here?

Sending POL on a network other than Arbitrum, 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 POL on Arbitrum to SOL on BSC without KYC?

Requirements are checked for the live POL Arbitrum to SOL 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.
