A private bridge requires exact source and destination verification before any privacy consideration: wrong networks, contracts, or addresses can cause irreversible loss.
Source checks
Confirm the wallet network, input token contract or native asset, source gas, amount, provider, and current deposit instructions.
Destination checks
Confirm the receiving address format, destination token representation, expected output, likely destination gas, and wallet support.
Route checks
Review fees, minimum received, quote expiry, estimated timing, privacy status, and provider requirements. Save the receipt privately.
Failure response
Do not send a second deposit when a route is delayed. Check the source hash and receipt, then use the official support process with no secrets.
How to read the evidence
Security takes precedence over privacy optimization. A wrong contract, incompatible address, expired deposit instruction, malicious approval, or fake support message can cause loss that no privacy feature can repair. Verify the route from the official interface, keep receipts out of public channels, and never disclose signing secrets. When a transaction is delayed, investigate the existing receipt before sending anything else.
