Cross-chain guides

Look beyond the send button when the destination uses a different ledger.

Cross-chain sending adds a route between independent networks. That route introduces questions an ordinary same-network send does not answer: which mechanism moves value, which parties or contracts it depends on, and what exact asset becomes available at the destination. These two guides approach that decision from complementary directions.

The concept guide explains network-specific balances, representations and completion evidence. The comparison guide evaluates bridge and exchange journeys as complete sequences, including entry requirements, custody, minimums, total fees and the final withdrawal or claim. Neither assumes that a route is appropriate just because its interface accepts your address.

Read the cross-chain altcoin send overview first for a concise framework, and revisit the wallet send checks before approving a route. The useful comparison is the one that ends with the right asset on the right network, under conditions you understand.
