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.
USDC is an issued dollar-oriented stablecoin with canonical, native, and bridged variants across networks. Contract events and issuer controls differ from a network-native gas asset. The destination wallet must support the exact Linea representation. The route converts a token source into a stablecoin balance; the destination ticker alone is not a contract check.
This route crosses two L2 execution environments. Arbitrum settles to ethereum, while Linea settles to ethereum; each side keeps its own gas balance, token contracts, transaction hash, and settlement progress.
USDC is classified as a stablecoin for this route. USDC uses a network-specific contract asset on Linea. The recorded Linea representation uses 6 decimal places. The wallet must support the destination USDC native label or contract. Receipt does not automatically supply the destination network’s gas asset.
Linea is a L2 EVM network in the Ethereum ecosystem. ETH pays destination-side network gas on Linea. EVM 0x account address A Linea receipt is recorded on the zkEVM L2 before the related proof settles to Ethereum; later activity needs ETH on Linea and the Linea token contract.
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.
Route-specific mistakes include sending on a network other than Arbitrum; using a destination that is not valid for Linea; running out of ETH before the source transaction is submitted; selecting a stablecoin by ticker without checking its network contract. 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 Linea receipt is recorded on the zkEVM L2 before the related proof settles to Ethereum; later activity needs ETH on Linea and the Linea token contract. The wallet must support the destination USDC native label or contract. Receipt does not automatically supply the destination network’s gas asset.
Arbitrum wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public, and Linea wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public. For this POL on Arbitrum to USDC on Linea 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.
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.
USDC is a contract representation on Linea with 6 decimals at 0x176211869cA2b568f2A7D4EE941E073a821EE1ff. ETH, not USDC, pays gas unless both symbols are the same. A Linea receipt is recorded on the zkEVM L2 before the related proof settles to Ethereum; later activity needs ETH on Linea and the Linea token contract. The wallet must support the destination USDC native label or contract. Receipt does not automatically supply the destination network’s gas asset.
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, The wallet must support the destination USDC native label or contract. Receipt does not automatically supply the destination network’s gas asset.
POL is the deposited token input; USDC is the quoted stablecoin output. Source allowance or native-spend rules and destination wallet/representation checks are evaluated separately.
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 Linea receipt is recorded on the zkEVM L2 before the related proof settles to Ethereum; later activity needs ETH on Linea and the Linea token contract. The wallet must support the destination USDC native label or contract. Receipt does not automatically supply the destination network’s gas asset.
USDC must match the quoted Linea representation. A ticker or target price is not enough to identify a token contract.
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.
Requirements are checked for the live POL Arbitrum to USDC Linea 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.
