A LITTLE CONTEXT GOES A LONG WAY
Understand the bridge.
How PRL becomes PEARL, what it costs, and what to verify.
What is wrapped Pearl (PEARL)?
PRL is Pearl’s native currency. PEARL is its token representation on Solana. Bridge PRL to Solana to receive PEARL, or bridge PEARL back to receive native PRL at your Pearl address.
Use a Solana wallet to interact with the bridge and a Pearl wallet to send or receive native PRL. You need SOL for Solana transaction costs.
Deposit PRL. Receive PEARL.
- Connect your Solana wallet. Create your reusable Pearl deposit address. Approve the account creation transaction in your wallet.
- Send native PRL to that address. Each deposit must meet the 0.1 PRL minimum. Keep your sender’s transaction record.
- Wait for 10 Pearl confirmations. Confirmation time depends on block production. Once eligible, the bridge processes the mint.
- Receive PEARL in your Solana wallet. The contract mints 99.9% to you and 0.1% to the fee treasury. If tokens are waiting in your deposit account, the bridge shows a claim action.
Your reusable address accepts different eligible amounts without creating a new address. Deposits below 0.1 PRL are not minted; transfers or individual inputs below 0.01 PRL are ignored as dust.
Return to native PRL.
- Choose the Solana → Pearl direction. Enter your PEARL amount, or enable exact receive to specify the PRL you want to get.
- Enter your Pearl destination. Check the complete address in the review before signing.
- Approve the withdrawal request. Your Solana wallet displays the transaction for approval. The bridge fee is charged in PEARL.
- Follow the request status. The bridge processes the native PRL payment. You can refresh pending requests or load earlier wallet requests in transfer activity.
A pending request can be canceled after the on-chain waiting period if it remains eligible. The interface shows when cancellation becomes available. Canceling returns the refundable PEARL amount; the original bridge fee is retained.
Clear fees. Both directions.
For a 1 PRL deposit, the contract mints 0.999 PEARL to you and 0.001 PEARL to the existing fee treasury. For a 1 PEARL withdrawal in “You send” mode, the bridge fee is 0.001 PEARL and the requested native payment is 0.999 PRL.
Solana transaction and account creation costs are separate and shown by your wallet. Sending native PRL from your own wallet also incurs the Pearl network fee shown by that wallet.
Verify using your own tools.
The heartbeat publishes the operator's wallet snapshot and pending deposit queue. It is an authenticated report, not an independent reserve proof.
Use your synchronized Pearl node to inspect withdrawal outputs with prlctl getrawtransaction TXID 1. Check destination, amount, and confirmations. Reserve snapshots are reported by the bridge operator.
Know what becomes public.
On Solana. PEARL balances and token transfers are visible on the public ledger. Pearl transaction outputs are also public.
At the bridge. Public bridge records can associate your Solana wallet with a Pearl deposit address, withdrawal destination, transfer amount, and timing. Consider these connections when choosing which wallets and addresses to use. The public heartbeat also lists pending deposit amounts, confirmation progress, and their Solana accounts.
Native Pearl. Pearl uses public transaction outputs. Bridge records can associate those outputs with your Solana account.
