Litecoin to POL, or Dogecoin to BNB.
On an exchange, each one is a deposit, two trades through USDT and a withdrawal to the right network.
On Pact, it's one swap from your own wallet. Native coin in, native coin out, across 7 networks.
You finally get your coins onto a new chain. Then you try to move them.
Zero gas.
Now you're hunting for a faucet, or buying $3 of the gas token on an exchange to send one transaction.
Pact swaps BTC straight into ETH, BNB or TRX. The coin you land with is the gas.
Your BTC sits on Bitcoin. Tron, where a big share of USDT moves, settled $2.21T in stablecoins in Q3 2026, about $24B a day, per its own report.
The two chains have no native link.
Pact swaps native BTC straight into USDT on Tron. One swap, from your own wallet.
$462. The average stablecoin payment in 2026, down from $544, per Allium's Q3 data. Total volume: $482B, up 45%.
Smaller tickets, many more of them.
Swaps have to work at that size. Pact's per-trade collateral keeps a $25 swap of native BTC, LTC or DOGE into USDT worth doing.
You hold BTC and want to make markets in LTC, ETH and BNB. Most venues make you split it three ways, or route through a stablecoin and eat the extra volatility.
Pact's upcoming multi-asset order will let one BTC allocation quote all three markets at once, each at its own price.
Nearly 100 Bitcoin vaults opened in Zest's first mainnet weeks. Deposit native BTC on L1, borrow USDC on Ethereum. No wrapping, no bridging.
BTCfi is building around native BTC.
Pact applies the same rule to swaps. BTC goes in as BTC and settles straight into ETH, BNB or TRX.
Every cross-chain degen knows the ritual.
Send. Open the explorer. Refresh. Check Discord. Refresh again. Ask if anyone else is stuck.
On Pact, your BTC settles directly into the asset you picked, native on both ends.
