2 weeks ago Moving the core contracts turned out to be a dead end. Transparent proxies don't work for the use case and moving the account to a new address will create a lot of breakage. Instead we're now aiming to handle the different addresses for alfajores in the client.
On Cel2, we expect core contracts to be at specific addresses: https://github.com/celo-org/optimism/blob/karlb/celo5/packages/contracts-bedrock/src/celo/CeloPredeploys.sol
The addresses are chosen to match the addresses on celo L1 mainnet. They are also correctly set when creating a new genesis. But when migrating state from a testnet, the contracts stay at their old addresses and the expected addresses remain empty.
One solution to this problem is adding a new step to the migration script that copies the proxies of all core contracts and their state to the new addresses.
