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 Hyperliquid (HyperEVM) as HYPE?
HYPE is listed as the native representation on Hyperliquid (HyperEVM); HYPE is used for network gas. A HyperEVM receipt belongs to its EVM execution state and uses HYPE for later gas; it should not be interpreted as a HyperCore position or vault balance. Confirm receipt in HyperEVM rather than HyperCore or another Hyperliquid environment; the destination context determines whether HYPE is spendable gas.
Why does the POL to HYPE 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, Confirm receipt in HyperEVM rather than HyperCore or another Hyperliquid environment; the destination context determines whether HYPE is spendable gas.
What changes between the source and destination asset roles?
POL is the deposited token input; HYPE 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 HyperEVM receipt belongs to its EVM execution state and uses HYPE for later gas; it should not be interpreted as a HyperCore position or vault balance. Confirm receipt in HyperEVM rather than HyperCore or another Hyperliquid environment; the destination context determines whether HYPE is spendable gas.
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 Hyperliquid (HyperEVM), can prevent detection or delivery. Match both network labels and representations to the active route.
Can I swap POL on Ethereum to HYPE on Hyperliquid without KYC?
Requirements are checked for the live POL Ethereum to HYPE Hyperliquid 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.
