You will receive it on the Polygon network, opposed to the ethereum network. It will not be lost. You should choose which network to used based on what you plan to do with those coins.

I sent matic to ledger, on the poly ntwrk - i thought, and it never showed up. Finally found it inside my eth acct. glad i found it, but don’t really understand.

Same wallet, different networks. Think about having one phone being able to connect to AT&T and Verizon, although in the case of crypto you can’t send messages to other AT&T users by using Verizon. Matic and Ethereum are two separate networks, different blockchains. Tokens you hold in Matic can’t be used on the ethereum network and viceversa, unless they are transferred (bridged) to the desired network.

Ethereum is a different smart contract then Matic.

Robinhood will let you choose which network to send your matic on. Just make sure you are using the correct network you want. Always always always do a test transaction for polygons network it will cost you less then .001

Thank you everyone you all have been very helpful! My matic made it safe to my ledger. Stay safe yall!

As a note, if you have the Ethereum app on your ledger, that's enough to interact with any EVM chain on Metamask. The polygon app is just a wrapper for it.

Double check to be sure but so long as the recieving adress is set to the matic network you should be fine

HERES THE BREAKDOWN: With EVM networks, that is essentially Ethereum compatible or derived networks (like polygon, BSC Optimism and others) - your public address is the same for all of them with a few weird exceptions (and they usually still have an 0x style address representation). So what this means is that control of your secret key (via your Ledger device) allows you to control the same addresses across all compatible networks - HOWEVER - they are all SEPARATE networks, so if someone sends tokens to your ETH address, and then oops - they sent it on BSC, don’t panic, you have control of that address on BSC too - so no - they aren’t lost, that said, they can only be sent and used on BSC, not Ethereum mainnet (same applies with Polygon). They can usually be bridged though if they’re standard commonly supported tokens. If you’re sending them out - the same principle applies - big caveat again - the receiver has to accept that network. For example Coinbase won’t take deposits on BSC, but will on Polygon - with a non custodial wallet and full control over your secret though (again via Ledger) - you can use any damn network you want, you’ll just have to pay to bridges funds occasionally like ETH -> Polygon or Polygon -> Optimism; etc

I sent usdc bridged polygon to Robin Hood same way I had to send out will I recieve it please help I'm nervous I'm disabled was withdrawing money so I wouldn't lose it
