What LINK represents
Chainlink (LINK) is available in network-specific native or token forms. LINK is an oracle-network utility token represented by network-specific contracts. It is not the gas asset on Ethereum or EVM rollups, and bridged LINK contracts require separate verification.
LINK contract-token identity
LINK is an oracle-network utility token represented by network-specific contracts. It is not the gas asset on Ethereum or EVM rollups, and bridged LINK contracts require separate verification. Recorded contract networks include Ethereum, Kaia, Monad, Subtensor EVM, XDC Network, Mode, Hydration, Moonriver, Metal L2, Metis, Merlin, Ronin, Fantom, Moonbeam, TAC Turin, Base, Lens, Linea, Henesys, Huobi ECO Chain, Tuxappcoin, Taiko, BOB, Mantle, Pharos, Rootstock, Unichain, opBNB, NEO, Polygon zkEVM, Shibarium Beta, WEMIX3.0, X Layer, Sonic, Soneium, Superseed, Plume, Botanix, ApeChain, Berachain Bepolia, Astar, Lisk, Bitlayer, Abstract, BSquared, Celo, Core Blockchain, Fraxtal, Etherlink, Cronos, Cronos zkEVM, Corn, Hemi, Ink, Kroma, Hyperliquid (HyperEVM), Stable, Solana, Osmosis, HashKey Chain, Plasma, Harmony Mainnet Shard 0, Energi, Sora, MegaETH, BNB Chain, Arbitrum, Blast Mainnet (OWCT), World Chain, Starknet, Optimism, zkSync Era, Avalanche, katana, Mint, Scroll, Zircuit, Zora, Polygon; network gas remains a separate native balance.

LINK recorded token precision
The contract representations currently share one recorded decimal format, but contract identity and network still require independent verification.
Receiving LINK without a network mismatch
Confirm the LINK network, contract or native label, and receiving address before using a route. Do not identify LINK solely by ticker; verify the asset and network representation. LINK can use different contracts on different networks.
Routes arriving as LINK
ARB → LINK, AVAX → LINK, BNB → LINK, BTC → LINK, DAI → LINK, DOGE → LINK, ETH → LINK, HYPE → LINK, OP → LINK, POL → LINK
Routes spending LINK
LINK → ARB, LINK → AVAX, LINK → BNB, LINK → BTC, LINK → DAI, LINK → DOGE, LINK → ETH, LINK → HYPE, LINK → OP, LINK → POL
LINK privacy and wallet linking
Approvals, token transfers, wallet reuse, amounts, timing, and later consolidation can remain visible. Private Route availability and identity requirements must be checked separately.
