Short answer

Sui and Avalanche work differently, so their wallets and addresses differ. To receive on Avalanche you need a regular Ethereum address: 0x plus 40 characters, for example from MetaMask or Rabby.

on Sui is paid in SUI, and on Avalanche in AVAX. Keep some SUI to send and plan how you will get AVAX on Avalanche.

The SUI coin exists only on Sui. If you SUI, on Avalanche you get either another token after a swap or a wrapped version.

Why this route is difficult

Sui is a separate blockchain with its own virtual machine, while Avalanche C-Chain is an Ethereum-compatible network. They share no .

Sui Bridge connects Sui only to Ethereum. Direct transfers therefore use CCTP, Wormhole and .

Possible approaches

1Burn and mint (CCTP)

USDC is burned on Sui, Circle confirms it, and native USDC is minted on Avalanche.

Trade-offUSDC only, but no wrapped versions.

2Solvers

A third party pays you on Avalanche right away and later receives your funds on Sui.

Trade-offFast and can pay out AVAX, but not available for every token.

3Lock and wrap

How to move Sui to Avalanche

Moving USDC or SUI to Avalanche

  1. 1

    Prepare the address

    Copy your Ethereum wallet address, for example from MetaMask. It is the same on Avalanche as on Ethereum.

  2. 2

    Open the bridge

    Go to the official site of Mayan, an app with CCTP, or an aggregator and connect your Sui wallet. Pick Sui as the source and Avalanche as the destination.

  3. 3

    Compare the quote

    Check which token will arrive. If you have no AVAX for gas on Avalanche, pick a route that pays out a little AVAX.

  4. 4

    Confirm and check the balance

    Sign the transaction in your Sui wallet. When it completes, check your balance on Avalanche C-Chain.

Fees and timing

Gas on Sui is tiny and paid in SUI. The main difference between options is the bridge fee and the swap rate.

If you send SUI and receive AVAX or USDC, the price includes a swap, so compare the final amount.

Common mistakes

  • Pasting a Sui address instead of an Ethereum address in the recipient field.
  • Sending your last SUI and leaving nothing for fees.
  • Expecting native SUI on Avalanche. It does not exist there, only a swap or a wrapper.
  • Entering an X-Chain or P-Chain address. You need a C-Chain address, which starts with 0x.

Before you transfer

  • Send a small amount first if you are using the route for the first time.
  • Check the recipient address: it must be in Ethereum format.
  • Open bridges only from their official addresses.
