Deposit Lifecycle

The lifecycle of a deposit operation

1

SourceTxDiscovered

This is the initial state of an operation, which is created when a deposit is discovered in a block. A deposit is identified as follows:

• Bitcoin: A Bitcoin output - greater than the minimum 0.002 BTC - to a Unit deposit address.

• Ethereum: An ETH transfer from an EOA or contract - greater than the minimum 0.05 ETH - to a unit deposit address. Ethereum deposits uniquely correspond to a trace.

• Solana: A solana transfer to a Unit deposit address greater than 0.2 SOL

  • Fart: An SPL transfer of fart to a Unit deposit address greater than 20 FART

  • PUMP: An SPL transfer of pump to a Unit deposit address greater than 10000 PUMP

Once a sourceTx is discovered, the deposit operation goes through validation, which includes checks for sanctioned addresses.

WaitForSrcTxFinalization

A transaction is considered unconfirmed until it has been included in a block on the source blockchain, at which point it has one confirmation. Each additional block is another confirmation. Confirmation requirements per source-chain are defined below

• Bitcoin: 2 confirmations

• Ethereum: 14 confirmations

• Solana: 32 confirmations
