SOL input identity and handling

Solana is classified as a native asset for this route. SOL uses a network-specific contract asset on Polygon. The recorded Polygon representation uses 9 decimal places. Native SOL leaves a Solana account through a signed transaction and pays the fee; wrapped or tokenized SOL uses a token account or external contract instead.

POL output identity and receiving

POL (ex-MATIC) is classified as a governance or utility token for this route. POL uses a native asset on Polygon. The recorded Polygon representation uses 18 decimal places. On Polygon PoS, native POL can support later gas; a POL contract on another network does not inherit that native function.

Polygon source execution

Polygon is a L1 EVM network in the Polygon ecosystem. POL pays source-side network gas on Polygon. EVM 0x account address A Polygon PoS source uses its validator/checkpoint system and POL gas; its token contracts and checkpoints are separate from Ethereum L1.

Mistakes specific to SOL Polygon to POL Polygon

Route-specific mistakes include sending on a network other than Polygon; using a destination that is not valid for Polygon; running out of POL before the source transaction is submitted. A Polygon PoS source uses its validator/checkpoint system and POL gas; its token contracts and checkpoints are separate from Ethereum L1. Native SOL leaves a Solana account through a signed transaction and pays the fee; wrapped or tokenized SOL uses a token account or external contract instead. A Polygon PoS receipt follows Polygon token contracts and checkpointed execution; later movement uses POL gas rather than Ethereum L1 gas. On Polygon PoS, native POL can support later gas; a POL contract on another network does not inherit that native function.

SOL source handling versus POL receipt

Native SOL leaves a Solana account through a signed transaction and pays the fee; wrapped or tokenized SOL uses a token account or external contract instead. On Polygon PoS, native POL can support later gas; a POL contract on another network does not inherit that native function.

Private Route for SOL → POL

Polygon wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public. For this SOL on Polygon to POL on Polygon 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.

What exactly leaves Polygon as SOL?

SOL is a contract representation on Polygon with 9 decimals at 0xd93f7E271cB87c23AaA73edC008A79646d1F9912. POL, not SOL, pays gas unless both symbols are the same. A Polygon PoS source uses its validator/checkpoint system and POL gas; its token contracts and checkpoints are separate from Ethereum L1. Native SOL leaves a Solana account through a signed transaction and pays the fee; wrapped or tokenized SOL uses a token account or external contract instead.

What exactly arrives on Polygon as POL?

POL is listed as the native representation on Polygon; POL is used for network gas. A Polygon PoS receipt follows Polygon token contracts and checkpointed execution; later movement uses POL gas rather than Ethereum L1 gas. On Polygon PoS, native POL can support later gas; a POL contract on another network does not inherit that native function.

Why does the SOL to POL direction matter?

Native SOL leaves a Solana account through a signed transaction and pays the fee; wrapped or tokenized SOL uses a token account or external contract instead. On receipt, On Polygon PoS, native POL can support later gas; a POL contract on another network does not inherit that native function.

What changes between the source and destination asset roles?

SOL is the deposited native-asset input; POL is the quoted token output. Source allowance or native-spend rules and destination wallet/representation checks are evaluated separately.

What should be matched before sending SOL?

Native SOL leaves a Solana account through a signed transaction and pays the fee; wrapped or tokenized SOL uses a token account or external contract instead. A Polygon PoS source uses its validator/checkpoint system and POL gas; its token contracts and checkpoints are separate from Ethereum L1. A Polygon PoS receipt follows Polygon token contracts and checkpointed execution; later movement uses POL gas rather than Ethereum L1 gas. On Polygon PoS, native POL can support later gas; a POL contract on another network does not inherit that native function.

What funds the Polygon source transaction?

POL is the native gas asset for Polygon. A Polygon PoS source uses its validator/checkpoint system and POL gas; its token contracts and checkpoints are separate from Ethereum L1. SOL is token-tracked and can need approval before transfer.

Can I swap SOL on Polygon to POL on Polygon without KYC?

Requirements are checked for the live SOL Polygon to POL Polygon 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.
