AVAX input identity and handling

Avalanche is classified as a native asset for this route. AVAX uses a quote-selected representation. Native AVAX exists on one recorded origin network; other network forms require representation checks. On Avalanche C-Chain, native AVAX funds both the transfer value and gas; on another chain, an AVAX-labelled contract behaves as a token input instead.

POL output identity and receiving

POL (ex-MATIC) is classified as a governance or utility token for this route. POL uses a quote-selected representation. Native POL exists on one recorded origin network; other network forms require representation checks. On Polygon PoS, native POL can support later gas; a POL contract on another network does not inherit that native function.
