Base to Tron: TRC-20 and EVM boundary

A Base source transaction is sequenced on the OP Stack rollup and later settles to Ethereum; Base ETH and Base token approvals remain on the L2 ledger. A Tron receipt belongs to a T-address as native TRX or the quoted TRC-20 contract; later activity consumes Tron resources or TRX fees. Base and Tron use different network identities, gas assets, wallet support, confirmation behavior, and destination conventions. Validate each side independently in the current route.

TRX resources and Tron address check

TRX is the native gas asset for Tron. Tron Base58Check address, commonly beginning with T A TRC-20 token transfer is not an ERC-20 transfer even when an asset ticker exists on both sides.

ETH to TRX representation change

Native TRX receipt belongs to a Tron address and can support network resources; tokenized TRX on another ledger cannot supply Tron bandwidth or energy. Verify the exact TRC-20 contract and the Base representation independently.
