Tron to Base: TRC-20 and EVM boundary

A Tron source uses a T-address plus bandwidth and energy accounting; TRX covers resource or fee needs for native or TRC-20 transfer execution. A Base receipt belongs to the Base L2 balance and token contract, not Ethereum L1; later activity needs ETH specifically on Base. Tron and Base use different network identities, gas assets, wallet support, confirmation behavior, and destination conventions. Validate each side independently in the current route.
