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. Optimism 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

Native BTC must arrive at a provider-accepted Bitcoin address and becomes a UTXO after broadcast; an EVM address is not a native BTC destination. Verify the exact TRC-20 contract and the Optimism representation independently.
