After the second-layer mapped asset M-BTC of Merlin Chain, the second-layer leader in Bitcoin, was released, various dapps were launched with great fanfare, and the enthusiasm for interaction remained high. But whether you receive it from Merlin pledge or from a layer of cross-chain, you cant avoid this problem: Particles stuck AA wallet must be automatically generated. This is also where most people get into trouble. Cant the money get out of the AA wallet? come! Transferring is troublesome. And the handling fee on the first floor is also very high.
Here is a cool operation: No matter whether your money is on the first layer or on an exchange: first transfer BTC to a cheap chain such as BNB, then use Meson to cross to Merlin, and then directly exchange it for M-BTC. Advantages of doing this:
Perfectly bypass AA wallet
Avoiding the expensive Bitcoin layer interaction
It can be said to save time and money. After all, time cost is also money.
Tutorial

Step 1: Transfer BTC or U from the exchange to a chain with lower gas. BNB Chain, Polygon, and Arbitrum are recommended here. (If you already have U in your little fox wallet, skip this step and go to step two!
