SUI to IOTA: Exchange Native Sui for IOTA, No Account

Sui and IOTA are separate layer-1 networks with their own coins, wallets and explorers. Nothing links them at the protocol level, so a direct send from one to the other is not possible. This pair does the conversion in one step: native SUI goes in on Sui, and IOTA is paid out on the IOTA network.

The reasons for this direction are usually practical. Some holders want a second network in their portfolio rather than everything on Sui. Others need IOTA for a project or an app that runs on the IOTA network, and have their balance sitting in SUI. Either way, you end up with coins on a chain that has different tools from the ones you use on Sui.

Because both sides are native coins, there is no token contract to pick and no wrapped version to worry about. The one thing to get right is the wallet on the receiving side, which is covered below.

SUI pays its own network fees. When you send the deposit from Slush (formerly Sui Wallet) or Nightly, the fee comes out of the same balance, so do not try to send every last SUI. Leave a small amount behind and the transaction goes through.

Staked SUI cannot be sent as it is. If your coins are delegated to a validator, withdraw the stake in your wallet first and wait until the balance shows as available. Only then does it count as a normal SUI balance you can move.

Sui confirms transfers in a few seconds, so the deposit is usually recognised almost as soon as you send it. You can follow it on Suiscan by searching your address.

Your own Sui address goes into the sender field. It is 0x followed by 64 hexadecimal characters, longer than an Ethereum address, so copy it from the wallet instead of typing it.

The payout address must come from a wallet that supports the IOTA network itself. Trust Wallet and Exodus are both options, and any other wallet will do as long as it lists IOTA as a network rather than as a token on some other chain. Check this before you start the swap, not after.

Open the receive tab for IOTA in that wallet and copy the address from there. Paste it into the payout field in one go and compare the first and last few characters. Do not reuse an address from Slush or Nightly here; a Sui address cannot receive IOTA.

IOTA is sent once your SUI deposit has been converted, and it arrives after a few confirmations on its own network. When the network is busy, that part takes longer. A fresh wallet with no balance can receive the payout without any setup beyond creating it.

Each row is a reminder that the two sides need their own setup. Plan for two wallets open at the same time: the Sui one to send from, and the IOTA one to copy the receive address. The Sui deposit is quick; most of the waiting, if there is any, comes from the IOTA side confirming the payout. If you are not sure your wallet supports IOTA, send a small swap first and confirm the coins show up.

Enter the SUI amount and the exchange box shows how much IOTA you get after fees, priced from aggregated liquidity from leading crypto markets. The rate floats with the market until the Sui deposit confirms, and the box also shows this pair's minimum and maximum.

Since Sui is fast, most swaps finish within minutes once the deposit is in. The status page linked to your swap ID shows the deposit, the conversion and the payout as separate steps. GhostSwap is a no-KYC crypto exchange: there is no sign-up, email or ID behind any of it.

If a swap cannot be completed, the coins are refunded to the sender address you entered. That is why the sender field should hold your own Sui address, not one belonging to an exchange account. If Suiscan shows the SUI arrived and the status has not moved for a long while, email support@ghostswap.io with the swap ID and the transaction digest.
