zkSync Era to Sui: object and account boundary

A zkSync Era source executes in EraVM with native account-abstraction behavior and ETH fees before proof settlement to Ethereum. A Sui receipt creates or updates Move coin objects at a Sui address; later object operations require SUI gas rather than an EVM allowance. zkSync Era and Sui use different network identities, gas assets, wallet support, confirmation behavior, and destination conventions. Validate each side independently in the current route.

Sui coin-object and SUI gas requirements

SUI is the native gas asset for Sui. Sui hexadecimal account address with an object-based asset model Coin objects and Move types are not EVM token contracts.

WBTC input versus WBTC output representation

WBTC leaves through a custodial wrapper contract with token approval and source-chain gas; no native Bitcoin UTXO is spent by that transfer. WBTC arrives as a wrapper-contract token and must not be sent onward to a native Bitcoin address without an explicit unwrap or bridge path.

WBTC keeps its ticker while changing ledgers

Wrapped Bitcoin is classified as a wrapped asset for this route. WBTC uses a wrapped contract asset on zkSync Era. The recorded zkSync Era representation uses 8 decimal places. The zkSync Era side is contract-tracked rather than a native gas balance. Wrapped Bitcoin is classified as a wrapped asset for this route. WBTC uses a wrapped contract asset on Sui. The recorded Sui representation uses 8 decimal places. The Sui side is contract-tracked rather than a native gas balance. WBTC leaves as a wrapped contract asset.

Private Route for WBTC → WBTC

For this WBTC on ZKsync Era to WBTC on Sui path, Private Route is intended to reduce the direct visible relationship between activity around the source-side EVM 0x account address and destination-side Sui hexadecimal account address with an object-based asset model; it does not hide either chain's public records.
