BTC input identity and handling
Bitcoin is classified as a UTXO-native asset for this route. BTC uses a quote-selected representation. Native BTC exists on one recorded origin network; other network forms require representation checks. A native BTC deposit spends selected UTXOs, pays a BTC miner fee, can create change, and advances through Bitcoin confirmations.
WBTC output identity and receiving
Wrapped Bitcoin is classified as a wrapped asset for this route. WBTC uses a quote-selected representation. WBTC arrives as a wrapper-contract token and must not be sent onward to a native Bitcoin address without an explicit unwrap or bridge path.
WBTC wrapped-token output check
WBTC is a custodial tokenized Bitcoin representation on smart-contract networks. Its transfers use token contracts and approvals rather than native Bitcoin inputs and outputs. On this route WBTC is the destination token. Its token balance, approvals, and contract transfer behavior are separate from the native coin used for network gas.

BTC source handling versus WBTC receipt
A native BTC deposit spends selected UTXOs, pays a BTC miner fee, can create change, and advances through Bitcoin confirmations. WBTC arrives as a wrapper-contract token and must not be sent onward to a native Bitcoin address without an explicit unwrap or bridge path.
