Arbitrum to Sui: object and account boundary
On an Arbitrum source, the Nitro sequencer records L2 execution before Ethereum settlement completes; ETH funds gas and ERC-20 inputs can need approval. A Sui receipt creates or updates Move coin objects at a Sui address; later object operations require SUI gas rather than an EVM allowance. Arbitrum 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.
DAI input versus USDT output representation
DAI leaves through its network-specific stablecoin contract and can require approval; the collateral design does not make a bridged DAI contract canonical. Confirm whether the output is ERC-20, TRC-20, SPL, or another USDT standard; a wallet supporting one standard may not credit another.
DAI and USDT: two stablecoin ledgers
DAI is a crypto-backed dollar-oriented stablecoin whose canonical and bridged contracts vary by network. Its peg design does not make two network representations interchangeable. USDT is issued through ERC-20, TRC-20, SPL, and other network-specific contracts. The ticker does not determine the token standard, contract, issuer controls, or destination address model. The route changes both asset identity and network representation; dollar-oriented pricing does not remove issuer controls, liquidity spread, contract, or receiving-network checks.
Mistakes specific to DAI Arbitrum to USDT Sui
Route-specific mistakes include sending on a network other than Arbitrum; using a destination that is not valid for Sui; running out of ETH before the source transaction is submitted; assuming evm and other addresses are interchangeable; selecting a stablecoin by ticker without checking its network contract. On an Arbitrum source, the Nitro sequencer records L2 execution before Ethereum settlement completes; ETH funds gas and ERC-20 inputs can need approval.

DAI input identity and handling
Dai is classified as a stablecoin for this route. DAI uses a network-specific contract asset on Arbitrum. The recorded Arbitrum representation uses 18 decimal places. DAI leaves through its network-specific stablecoin contract and can require approval; the collateral design does not make a bridged DAI contract canonical.
USDT output identity and receiving
Tether is classified as a stablecoin for this route. USDT uses a network-specific contract asset on Sui. The recorded Sui representation uses 6 decimal places. Confirm whether the output is ERC-20, TRC-20, SPL, or another USDT standard; a wallet supporting one standard may not credit another.
