What you need to know

Convert the Linea 0x input into a Solana-account receipt

Linea uses EVM account addresses and ETH for source gas. Solana uses Solana accounts, transaction signatures, and SOL for destination activity. A 0x address is not a valid substitute for the Solana receiving address shown by the route. USDC uses USDC contract token on the source; USDT uses USDT contract token on Solana.

Solana token-account check for USDT

Base58-encoded Solana account address A Solana receipt uses a native SOL balance or SPL token account identified by mint; later token movement and account creation use SOL fees. Confirm whether the output is ERC-20, TRC-20, SPL, or another USDT standard; a wallet supporting one standard may not credit another. A compatible wallet may create or use an associated token account, and SOL—not USDT unless it is SOL—pays later Solana fees.

Linea approval and gas before the handoff

ETH is the native gas asset for Linea. USDC is contract-tracked and can require an allowance before transfer. A Linea source is executed on the zkEVM rollup and later proven to Ethereum; L2 inclusion and proof settlement are distinct source milestones.

USDC and USDT: two stablecoin ledgers

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. USDT is issued through ERC-20, TRC-20, SPL, and other network-specific contracts. The ticker does not determine the token standard, contract, issuer controls, or destination address model. The route changes both asset identity and network representation; dollar-oriented pricing does not remove issuer controls, liquidity spread, contract, or receiving-network checks.
