What exactly leaves Base as USDT?
USDT is a contract representation on Base with 6 decimals at 0xfde4C96c8593536E31F229EA8f37b2ADa2699bb2. ETH, not USDT, pays gas unless both symbols are the same. A Base source transaction is sequenced on the OP Stack rollup and later settles to Ethereum; Base ETH and Base token approvals remain on the L2 ledger. The input must match the selected ERC-20, TRC-20, SPL, or other USDT representation; each standard has different address, approval, and fee behavior.
What exactly arrives on BNB Chain as SOL?
SOL is a contract representation on BNB Chain with 18 decimals at 0x570A5D26f7765Ecb712C0924E4De545B89fD43dF. BNB, not SOL, pays gas unless both symbols are the same. A BNB Smart Chain receipt uses the BEP-20 contract or native BNB balance selected by the route; later token movement needs BNB gas. Native SOL receipt uses a Solana address and can fund later fees; wrapped SOL uses an SPL token account and tokenized SOL elsewhere is not native.
Why does the USDT to SOL direction matter?
The input must match the selected ERC-20, TRC-20, SPL, or other USDT representation; each standard has different address, approval, and fee behavior. On receipt, Native SOL receipt uses a Solana address and can fund later fees; wrapped SOL uses an SPL token account and tokenized SOL elsewhere is not native.
What changes between the source and destination asset roles?
USDT is the deposited stablecoin input; SOL is the quoted native-asset output. Source allowance or native-spend rules and destination wallet/representation checks are evaluated separately.
What should be matched before sending USDT?

A Base source transaction is sequenced on the OP Stack rollup and later settles to Ethereum; Base ETH and Base token approvals remain on the L2 ledger. A BNB Smart Chain receipt uses the BEP-20 contract or native BNB balance selected by the route; later token movement needs BNB gas. Native SOL receipt uses a Solana address and can fund later fees; wrapped SOL uses an SPL token account and tokenized SOL elsewhere is not native.
Which stablecoin contract must this route match?
USDT must match its Base representation. A ticker or target price is not enough to identify a token contract.
What funds the Base source transaction?
ETH is the native gas asset for Base. A Base source transaction is sequenced on the OP Stack rollup and later settles to Ethereum; Base ETH and Base token approvals remain on the L2 ledger. USDT is token-tracked and can need approval before transfer.
