Solana uses Solana accounts and SOL for source fees, while Optimism uses an EVM 0x account and ETH for destination gas. Confirm the destination token contract and do not paste a Solana address into the EVM destination field. SOL is read from its Solana mint or native account, while OP arrives at the quoted Optimism native or contract representation.
Base58-encoded Solana account address SOL is the native gas asset for Solana. A Solana source signs over accounts or token accounts, identifies SPL assets by mint, and spends SOL for transaction fees. 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. The mint/account selected by the quote must match the source wallet balance.
EVM 0x account address ETH is the native gas asset for Optimism. An OP Mainnet receipt belongs to the OP Stack L2 and needs ETH on that network for later activity; it is not an Ethereum L1 balance. OP receipt is a governance-token balance, not destination gas. Verify the destination contract and keep ETH available for OP Mainnet activity. A Solana address cannot receive this EVM-side output.
Route-specific mistakes include sending on a network other than Solana; using a destination that is not valid for Optimism; running out of SOL before the source transaction is submitted; assuming solana and evm addresses are interchangeable. A Solana source signs over accounts or token accounts, identifies SPL assets by mint, and spends SOL for transaction fees. 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. An OP Mainnet receipt belongs to the OP Stack L2 and needs ETH on that network for later activity; it is not an Ethereum L1 balance. OP receipt is a governance-token balance, not destination gas. Verify the destination contract and keep ETH available for OP Mainnet activity.
Solana is classified as a native asset for this route. SOL uses a native asset on Solana. Native SOL exists on one recorded origin network; other network forms require representation checks. 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.
Optimism is classified as a governance or utility token for this route. OP uses a network-specific contract asset on Optimism. The Optimism side is contract-tracked rather than a native gas balance. OP receipt is a governance-token balance, not destination gas. Verify the destination contract and keep ETH available for OP Mainnet activity.
Solana account, token, program, signature, and fee activity remain public, and Optimism wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public. For this SOL on Solana to OP on Optimism path, Private Route is intended to reduce the direct visible relationship between activity around the source-side Base58-encoded Solana account address and destination-side EVM 0x account address; it does not hide either chain's public records.
No. EVM 0x account address The OP output belongs to the quoted EVM representation.
SOL pays source fees on Solana. ETH pays later transactions on Optimism; the delivered OP does not replace that gas balance unless it is the native asset.
SOL is listed as the native representation on Solana; SOL is used for network gas. A Solana source signs over accounts or token accounts, identifies SPL assets by mint, and spends SOL for transaction fees. 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.
OP is a contract representation on Optimism at 0x4200000000000000000000000000000000000042. ETH, not OP, pays gas unless both symbols are the same. An OP Mainnet receipt belongs to the OP Stack L2 and needs ETH on that network for later activity; it is not an Ethereum L1 balance. OP receipt is a governance-token balance, not destination gas. Verify the destination contract and keep ETH available for OP Mainnet activity.
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, OP receipt is a governance-token balance, not destination gas. Verify the destination contract and keep ETH available for OP Mainnet activity.
SOL is the deposited native-asset input; OP is the quoted token output. Source allowance or native-spend rules and destination wallet/representation checks are evaluated separately.
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 Solana source signs over accounts or token accounts, identifies SPL assets by mint, and spends SOL for transaction fees. An OP Mainnet receipt belongs to the OP Stack L2 and needs ETH on that network for later activity; it is not an Ethereum L1 balance. OP receipt is a governance-token balance, not destination gas. Verify the destination contract and keep ETH available for OP Mainnet activity.
Requirements are checked for the live SOL Solana to OP OP Mainnet 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.
