Sui to Base: object and account boundary

A Sui source consumes or mutates Move coin objects, uses a Sui address, and spends SUI for gas and storage-related execution. A Base receipt belongs to the Base L2 balance and token contract, not Ethereum L1; later activity needs ETH specifically on Base. Sui and Base 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.

USDT input versus LINK output representation

The input must match the selected ERC-20, TRC-20, SPL, or other USDT representation; each standard has different address, approval, and fee behavior. LINK arrives as a network-specific contract balance. The wallet still needs the destination native asset before it can transfer or approve LINK later.

Converting stablecoin USDT into LINK

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 source is a stablecoin contract or recorded native representation, while LINK is classified as token. Check the quoted output rather than assuming a one-dollar source unit fixes the destination amount.

Mistakes specific to USDT Sui to LINK Base

Route-specific mistakes include sending on a network other than Sui; using a destination that is not valid for Base; running out of SUI before the source transaction is submitted; assuming other and evm addresses are interchangeable; selecting a stablecoin by ticker without checking its network contract. A Sui source consumes or mutates Move coin objects, uses a Sui address, and spends SUI for gas and storage-related execution. The input must match the selected ERC-20, TRC-20, SPL, or other USDT representation; each standard has different address, approval, and fee behavior. A Base receipt belongs to the Base L2 balance and token contract, not Ethereum L1; later activity needs ETH specifically on Base. LINK arrives as a network-specific contract balance. The wallet still needs the destination native asset before it can transfer or approve LINK later.

USDT input identity and handling

The input must match the selected ERC-20, TRC-20, SPL, or other USDT representation; each standard has different address, approval, and fee behavior.

LINK output identity and receiving

Chainlink is classified as a governance or utility token for this route. LINK uses a network-specific contract asset on Base. The Base side is contract-tracked rather than a native gas balance. LINK arrives as a network-specific contract balance. The wallet still needs the destination native asset before it can transfer or approve LINK later.

Private Route for USDT → LINK

Sui account, object, transaction-effect, and fee activity remain public, and Base wallet, token-transfer, contract, log, and gas activity remain public. For this USDT on Sui to LINK on Base path, Private Route is intended to reduce the direct visible relationship between activity around the source-side Sui hexadecimal account address with an object-based asset model and destination-side EVM 0x account address; it does not hide either chain's public records.
