Compass

As SatsChain aims to facilitate seamless interoperability between Bitcoin and Ethereum blockchains, a robust address conversion mechanism is vital. This is achieved via SatsChain's Compass Module

This mechanism is designed to convert Bitcoin's native SegWit addresses (Bech32 format) into a format compatible with Ethereum's addressing system, enabling the efficient handling of cross-chain transactions.

Below are the highlevel Conversions or compatibleness that occurs in Compass Module
