What exactly leaves Ethereum as POL?
POL is a contract representation on Ethereum at 0x455e53cbb86018ac2b8092fdcd39d8444affc3f6. ETH, not POL, pays gas unless both symbols are the same. An Ethereum source pays L1 base and priority fees in ETH, and an ERC-20 input can require a separate approval before the route deposit. 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 Linea as AVAX?
AVAX is a contract representation on Linea with 18 decimals at 0x5471ea8f739dd37E9B81Be9c5c77754D8AA953E4. ETH, not AVAX, 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. Native Avalanche receipt belongs on C-Chain and can fund later gas; an AVAX token on another chain remains a contract balance.
Why does the POL to AVAX 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 Avalanche receipt belongs on C-Chain and can fund later gas; an AVAX token on another chain remains a contract balance.
What changes between the source and destination asset roles?
POL is the deposited token input; AVAX 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. An Ethereum source pays L1 base and priority fees in ETH, and an ERC-20 input can require a separate approval before the route deposit. 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. Native Avalanche receipt belongs on C-Chain and can fund later gas; an AVAX token on another chain remains a contract balance.
What funds the Ethereum source transaction?
ETH is the native gas asset for Ethereum. An Ethereum source pays L1 base and priority fees in ETH, and an ERC-20 input can require a separate approval before the route deposit. 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 Ethereum, or using an address that is not valid for Linea, can prevent detection or delivery. Match both network labels and representations to the active route.
Can I swap POL on Ethereum to AVAX on Linea without KYC?
Requirements are checked for the live POL Ethereum to AVAX 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.
