Optimism to Sui: object and account boundary

An OP Mainnet source uses sequenced OP Stack execution and ETH gas; ordinary route processing is not the same as the canonical L2 withdrawal delay. A Sui receipt creates or updates Move coin objects at a Sui address; later object operations require SUI gas rather than an EVM allowance. Optimism 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.

OP input versus SUI output representation

OP is transferred as a governance token; ETH remains required for OP Mainnet gas and the outbound contract must match the source network. Native SUI receipt creates Sui coin objects that can fund later gas. A smart-contract token outside Sui does not become a native object.

Mistakes specific to OP Optimism to SUI Sui

An OP Mainnet source uses sequenced OP Stack execution and ETH gas; ordinary route processing is not the same as the canonical L2 withdrawal delay. OP is transferred as a governance token; ETH remains required for OP Mainnet gas and the outbound contract must match the source network. A Sui receipt creates or updates Move coin objects at a Sui address; later object operations require SUI gas rather than an EVM allowance.

Sui is classified as a native asset for this route. SUI uses a native asset on Sui. The Sui side is contract-tracked rather than a native gas balance. Native SUI receipt creates Sui coin objects that can fund later gas. A smart-contract token outside Sui does not become a native object.

Private Route for OP → SUI

Optimism wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public, and Sui account, object, transaction-effect, and fee activity remain public. For this OP on Optimism to SUI 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.
