Sui to Arbitrum: 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. An Arbitrum receipt appears on the Nitro L2 ledger under an Arbitrum token contract or native ETH balance; later spending needs Arbitrum ETH while L1 settlement continues separately. Sui and Arbitrum 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 ARB 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. A receiving wallet should show the exact ARB contract on the destination. Receipt does not fund ETH gas for later token movement.

WBTC unwrap or exchange input check

WBTC is a custodial tokenized Bitcoin representation on smart-contract networks. Its transfers use token contracts and approvals rather than native Bitcoin inputs and outputs. On this route WBTC is the source token on Sui. Its token balance, approvals, and contract transfer behavior are separate from the native coin used for network gas.
