POL input identity and handling

POL (ex-MATIC) is classified as a governance or utility token for this route. POL uses a quote-selected representation. Native POL exists on one recorded origin network; other network forms require representation checks. Native POL can pay Polygon PoS gas, while a POL-labelled contract on another network uses that chain’s gas and token-transfer rules.

Native BTC exists on one recorded origin network; other network forms require representation checks. 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.
