WBTC input identity and handling

Wrapped Bitcoin is classified as a wrapped asset for this route. WBTC uses a quote-selected representation. WBTC leaves through a custodial wrapper contract with token approval and source-chain gas; no native Bitcoin UTXO is spent by that transfer.

ETH output identity and receiving

Ethereum is classified as a native asset for this route. ETH uses a quote-selected representation. Native ETH exists on multiple recorded origin networks; other network forms require representation checks. Determine whether ETH arrives as native destination gas or as a tokenized representation. Only the native balance can directly pay that network’s fees.

WBTC unwrap or exchange input check

WBTC is a custodial tokenized Bitcoin representation on smart-contract networks. Its transfers use token contracts and approvals rather than native Bitcoin inputs and outputs. On this route WBTC is the source token. Its token balance, approvals, and contract transfer behavior are separate from the native coin used for network gas.
