DAI input identity and handling

Dai is classified as a stablecoin for this route. DAI uses a quote-selected representation. Native DAI exists on one recorded origin network; other network forms require representation checks. DAI leaves through its network-specific stablecoin contract and can require approval; the collateral design does not make a bridged DAI contract canonical.

Converting stablecoin DAI into LINK

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 LINK is classified as token. Check the quoted output rather than assuming a one-dollar source unit fixes the destination amount.

LINK output identity and receiving

Chainlink is classified as a governance or utility token for this route. LINK uses a quote-selected representation. LINK arrives as a network-specific contract balance. The wallet still needs the destination native asset before it can transfer or approve LINK later.

Mistakes specific to DAI to LINK

Verify both asset identities, the selected network, current deposit instructions, and the receiving representation.

DAI source handling versus LINK receipt

Private Route for DAI → LINK

the selected source network addresses, transfers, amounts, fees, and timing remain public, and the selected destination network addresses, transfers, amounts, fees, and timing remain public. For this DAI on the selected source network to LINK on the selected destination network path, Private Route is intended to reduce the direct visible relationship between activity around the source-side the selected source network address and destination-side the selected destination network address; it does not hide either chain's public records.

  • Reduces the obvious link between the DAI deposit and LINK receipt
  • Compare standard and Private Route options for the selected source network → the selected destination network
  • Shows what remains public on the selected source network and the selected destination network before you deposit
