Bridge Slippage and Minimum Received Explained on Celestia
Understand price impact, slippage, and minimum received amounts in cross-chain transactions.
Why this matters on Celestia
Slippage is about execution price, while minimum received is the protection shown to the user. Understanding both helps avoid surprises in volatile or low-liquidity routes.
Celestia uses a modular blockchain design, so asset and application context can differ from EVM networks.
Celestia does not follow standard EVM conventions. Address formats, token identifiers and approval mechanics differ, so EVM-oriented checklists and tools should only be applied to Celestia after confirming they are supported.
Celestia: what to pay attention to
- Costs: Check the exact network and route mechanics before estimating transfer costs.
- Security: Do not assume EVM wallet behavior or contract conventions apply directly.
- Assets and tokens: Verify the supported asset representation for the route you are using.
A Celestia checklist for this topic
- Confirm both the source and destination network, including whether Celestia is one of them.
- Compare the quote, the minimum received amount and the total fees before signing.
- Check that the token you hold on Celestia is supported for the route you are considering.
- Allow for a delay between sending and receiving; do not repeat a transfer while one is pending.
