Sui to Optimism: 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 OP Mainnet receipt belongs to the OP Stack L2 and needs ETH on that network for later activity; it is not an Ethereum L1 balance. Sui and Optimism 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 OP 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. OP receipt is a governance-token balance, not destination gas. Verify the destination contract and keep ETH available for OP Mainnet activity.

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.

Mistakes specific to WBTC Sui to OP Optimism

Route-specific mistakes include sending on a network other than Sui; using a destination that is not valid for Optimism; running out of SUI before the source transaction is submitted; assuming other and evm addresses are interchangeable; treating a wrapped token as the native gas asset. A Sui source consumes or mutates Move coin objects, uses a Sui address, and spends SUI for gas and storage-related execution. WBTC leaves through a custodial wrapper contract with token approval and source-chain gas; no native Bitcoin UTXO is spent by that transfer. An OP Mainnet receipt belongs to the OP Stack L2 and needs ETH on that network for later activity; it is not an Ethereum L1 balance. OP receipt is a governance-token balance, not destination gas. Verify the destination contract and keep ETH available for OP Mainnet activity.

WBTC input identity and handling

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. WBTC leaves through a custodial wrapper contract with token approval and source-chain gas; no native Bitcoin UTXO is spent by that transfer.

OP output identity and receiving

Optimism is classified as a governance or utility token for this route. OP uses a network-specific contract asset on Optimism. The Optimism side is contract-tracked rather than a native gas balance. OP receipt is a governance-token balance, not destination gas. Verify the destination contract and keep ETH available for OP Mainnet activity.

Private Route for WBTC → OP

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