XRP input identity and handling

XRP is classified as a native asset for this route. XRP uses a quote-selected representation. Native XRP exists on one recorded origin network; other network forms require representation checks. Native XRP sending can require XRP Ledger address and destination-tag handling, while tokenized XRP uses the selected smart-contract network.

WETH output identity and receiving

WETH is classified as a wrapped asset for this route. WETH uses a quote-selected representation. WETH arrives as a token contract balance. It may need an explicit unwrap before becoming native ETH and cannot itself pay transaction gas.

WETH wrapped-token output 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 destination token. Its token balance, approvals, and contract transfer behavior are separate from the native coin used for network gas.
