What you need to know

WETH input identity and handling

WETH is classified as a wrapped asset for this route. WETH uses a wrapped contract asset on Linea. The recorded Linea representation uses 18 decimal places. WETH leaves through a wrapper contract and needs native chain gas. A WETH token balance cannot pay the gas required to submit its own transfer.

Linea to Optimism L2 handoff

This route crosses two L2 execution environments. Linea settles to ethereum, while Optimism settles to ethereum; each side keeps its own gas balance, token contracts, transaction hash, and settlement progress.

WETH unwrap or exchange input check

WETH is a contract wrapper for ETH. It can be transferred as a token but cannot replace the native gas balance required by the network. On this route WETH is the source token on Linea. Its token balance, approvals, and contract transfer behavior are separate from the native coin used for network gas.

Optimism destination execution

Optimism is a L2 EVM network in the Ethereum ecosystem. ETH pays destination-side network gas on Optimism. EVM 0x account address An OP Mainnet receipt belongs to the OP Stack L2 and needs ETH on that network for later activity; it is not an Ethereum L1 balance.

TRX output identity and receiving

TRON is classified as a native asset for this route. TRX uses a network-specific contract asset on Optimism. The recorded Optimism representation uses 6 decimal places. Native TRX receipt belongs to a Tron address and can support network resources; tokenized TRX on another ledger cannot supply Tron bandwidth or energy.

Linea source execution

Linea is a L2 EVM network in the Ethereum ecosystem. ETH pays source-side network gas on Linea. EVM 0x account address A Linea source is executed on the zkEVM rollup and later proven to Ethereum; L2 inclusion and proof settlement are distinct source milestones.

EVM-to-EVM execution boundary

Linea and Optimism can use the same 0x address syntax, but they are separate networks with different chain identifiers, gas balances, token contracts, and transaction histories. The recorded settlement context includes ethereum, so L1 and L2 confirmation behavior should not be assumed identical.

Mistakes specific to WETH Linea to TRX Optimism

Route-specific mistakes include sending on a network other than Linea; using a destination that is not valid for Optimism; running out of ETH before the source transaction is submitted; treating a wrapped token as the native gas asset. A Linea source is executed on the zkEVM rollup and later proven to Ethereum; L2 inclusion and proof settlement are distinct source milestones. WETH leaves through a wrapper contract and needs native chain gas. A WETH token balance cannot pay the gas required to submit its own transfer. An OP Mainnet receipt belongs to the OP Stack L2 and needs ETH on that network for later activity; it is not an Ethereum L1 balance. Native TRX receipt belongs to a Tron address and can support network resources; tokenized TRX on another ledger cannot supply Tron bandwidth or energy.

Private Route for WETH → TRX

Linea wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public, and Optimism wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public. For this WETH on Linea to TRX on Optimism path, Private Route is intended to reduce the direct visible relationship between activity around the source-side EVM 0x account address and destination-side EVM 0x account address; it does not hide either chain's public records.
