Umi Network also has reserved addresses that are used to identify standard packages and objects. Reserved addresses are typically simple values that are easy to remember and type. For example, the address of the Standard Library is 0x1. Addresses, shorter than 32 bytes, are padded with zeros to the left.

0x1 = 0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001

Here are some examples of reserved addresses:

• 0x1 - address of the Umi Network Standard Library (alias std)
• 0x2 - address of the Umi Network Framework (alias sui)
• 0x6 - address of the system Clock object
