What you need to know

Convert the Scroll 0x input into a Solana-account receipt

Scroll uses EVM account addresses and ETH for source gas. Solana uses Solana accounts, transaction signatures, and SOL for destination activity. A 0x address is not a valid substitute for the Solana receiving address shown by the route. DAI uses DAI contract token on the source; WETH uses WETH wrapped token on Solana.

Solana token-account check for WETH

Base58-encoded Solana account address A Solana receipt uses a native SOL balance or SPL token account identified by mint; later token movement and account creation use SOL fees. WETH arrives as a token contract balance. It may need an explicit unwrap before becoming native ETH and cannot itself pay transaction gas. A compatible wallet may create or use an associated token account, and SOL—not WETH unless it is SOL—pays later Solana fees.

Scroll approval and gas before the handoff

ETH is the native gas asset for Scroll. DAI is contract-tracked and can require an allowance before transfer. A Scroll source executes in the zkEVM and is later included in a proof batch to Ethereum; Scroll contract identity must be verified independently.

Converting stablecoin DAI into WETH

DAI is a crypto-backed dollar-oriented stablecoin whose canonical and bridged contracts vary by network. Its peg design does not make two network representations interchangeable. The source is a stablecoin contract or recorded native representation, while WETH is classified as token. Check the quoted output rather than assuming a one-dollar source unit fixes the destination amount.

WETH wrapped-token output check

WETH is a contract wrapper for ETH. It can be transferred as a token but cannot replace the native gas balance required by the network. On this route WETH is the destination token on Solana. Its token balance, approvals, and contract transfer behavior are separate from the native coin used for network gas.

Mistakes specific to DAI Scroll to WETH Solana

Route-specific mistakes include sending on a network other than Scroll; using a destination that is not valid for Solana; running out of ETH before the source transaction is submitted; assuming evm and solana addresses are interchangeable; selecting a stablecoin by ticker without checking its network contract; treating a wrapped token as the native gas asset. A Scroll source executes in the zkEVM and is later included in a proof batch to Ethereum; Scroll contract identity must be verified independently. DAI leaves through its network-specific stablecoin contract and can require approval; the collateral design does not make a bridged DAI contract canonical. A Solana receipt uses a native SOL balance or SPL token account identified by mint; later token movement and account creation use SOL fees. WETH arrives as a token contract balance. It may need an explicit unwrap before becoming native ETH and cannot itself pay transaction gas.

DAI input identity and handling

Dai is classified as a stablecoin for this route. DAI uses a network-specific contract asset on Scroll. The recorded Scroll representation uses 18 decimal places. DAI leaves through its network-specific stablecoin contract and can require approval; the collateral design does not make a bridged DAI contract canonical.

WETH output identity and receiving

WETH is classified as a wrapped asset for this route. WETH uses a wrapped contract asset on Solana. The recorded Solana representation uses 9 decimal places. WETH arrives as a token contract balance. It may need an explicit unwrap before becoming native ETH and cannot itself pay transaction gas.

Private Route for DAI → WETH

Scroll wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public, and Solana account, token, program, signature, and fee activity remain public. For this DAI on Scroll to WETH on Solana path, Private Route is intended to reduce the direct visible relationship between activity around the source-side EVM 0x account address and destination-side Base58-encoded Solana account address; it does not hide either chain's public records.

On receipt, WETH arrives as a token contract balance. It may need an explicit unwrap before becoming native ETH and cannot itself pay transaction gas.

What changes between the source and destination asset roles?

DAI is the deposited stablecoin input; WETH is the quoted token output. Source allowance or native-spend rules and destination wallet/representation checks are evaluated separately.

What should be matched before sending DAI?
