Network guides
Understand what changes when you send on Bitcoin, Ethereum or Solana.
The word “send” appears in many wallets, but the transaction underneath it depends on the network. Bitcoin spends transaction outputs. Ethereum distinguishes its native asset from contract-based tokens. Solana has its own transaction and token-account model. These guides explain the differences that matter when you prepare a payment or investigate its status.
Each network guide follows a concrete question: what are you sending, what pays the fee, what can the recipient accept, and what evidence shows progress? The examples illustrate the mechanics without pretending that a quoted fee or confirmation estimate stays current. Use the amount and transaction details shown by your wallet when you make a real decision.
Start with the relevant overview for Bitcoin sends, Ethereum sends or Solana sends, then read its deeper article below. If your destination is on another network, continue to the cross-chain collection before treating the transfer as an ordinary wallet send.
