Learn how to swap SUI for other cryptocurrencies, and why you should do it on Balanced.

How to swap SUI cross-chain

You can exchange SUI for a variety of cryptoassets, and even move between blockchains in a single trade.

Go to the Trade page and sign in. Then, from the Swap tab:

1. Choose to swap SUI for another asset.
2. Choose which blockchains to send and receive on.
3. Enter an amount for one of the assets. The other will update to reflect the current rate, with fees factored in.
4. Adjust the slippage tolerance and recipient address (optional).
5. Click Swap and complete the transaction.

There’s a 0.3% fee for each step in the trade route, and a transfer fee that varies per chain. The transfer fee for Sui transactions costs 0.05 SUI.

How Balanced swaps crypto cross-chain

Balanced uses General Message Passing (GMP) to power its blockchain connections.

GMP is a cross-chain messaging service that can connect to any interoperability protocol or smart-contract capable blockchain. It relays transaction messages between connected chains, and includes multi-protocol verification to reduce dependency on a single bridge.

Balanced’s core contracts and liquidity reside on the ICON blockchain, which acts as the liquidity hub and settles all transactions from connected chains.

After you confirm your swap, the SUI gets locked in a contract on that blockchain. GMP routes the swap through ICON, and your new asset is unlocked on the destination chain and added to your wallet. If a transaction fails, it reverts.
