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. LINK uses LINK contract token on the source; DAI uses DAI contract token on Solana.

Solana token-account check for DAI

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. The receiving wallet must recognize the exact destination DAI contract. Peg intent does not guarantee that a bridged representation has the same liquidity or issuer path. A compatible wallet may create or use an associated token account, and SOL—not DAI unless it is SOL—pays later Solana fees.

Scroll approval and gas before the handoff

ETH is the native gas asset for Scroll. LINK 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.

Receiving stablecoin DAI

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 destination wallet must support the exact Solana representation. The route converts a token source into a stablecoin balance; the destination ticker alone is not a contract check.
