LINK input identity and handling
Chainlink is classified as a governance or utility token for this route. LINK uses a quote-selected representation. LINK is a contract-token input, so the source wallet needs the network’s native gas asset and may need to approve the exact LINK contract.

USDT is issued through ERC-20, TRC-20, SPL, and other network-specific contracts. The ticker does not determine the token standard, contract, issuer controls, or destination address model. The destination wallet must support the exact selected network representation. The route converts a token source into a stablecoin balance; the destination ticker alone is not a contract check.
