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.

The wallet must support the destination USDC native label or contract. Receipt does not automatically supply the destination network’s gas asset. Verify the exact TRC-20 contract and the Base representation independently.
