That was some weekend, huh? Did you see that pump? I know by now you did. Bitcoin hit all-time highs over $81,000. And it wasn’t only Bitcoin although it clearly is the leader. Many alts had a big weekend. Ethereum cracked $3000 for the first time in a long time. Cardano nearly got to 60c. And one of our favorites, Sui, hit a new all-time high.

Today, we get into some Sui updates and show you that the price increase is not hype. It’s great fundamentals that are driving Sui’s price movement.

More Liquidity = More $$

First, let’s look at the Sui chart for the last 7 days. See how great this looks? Just on Friday, it was slightly below $2 and now it’s above $3. A more than 50% move just over the weekend. Here’s the chart of the last 7 days.

Pretty, isn’t it?

But unlike many projects that pump like this, some great fundamentals are backing this price move.

The first fundamental is a big deal in terms of liquidity, utility, and growth in DeFi. Here we are talking about USDC issuance.

In a very short time, native USDC on Sui is now over $100 million in issuance. That’s $100 million in exactly 2 months when we reported on native USDC coming to the network. Plus, in further support of DeFi initiatives, there is a new liquid token standard available that all Sui Network tokens can use called SpringSui or $sSUI.

Another factor for increasing liquidity and better access to $SUI is the news that deposits and withdrawals are now live on Coinbase. This is particularly useful for our American friends.

This and the native USDC are very powerful together for ease of use for everyone but especially Americans. To go directly from CB to your Sui Wallet is one of the easiest transactions you can do.

Not Just DeFi

Other areas of Sui are growing, too. It’s not only DeFi. In the collectible NFT and memorabilia area, the new deal with Trace enables fans to capture some of their favorite sports moments and save them as an NFT. All things NFTs are smoother, more efficient, and with more options available since Sui’s programming language, Move, is an object-oriented language, and NFTs themselves are also objects. They work together seamlessly.

And lastly, a couple of months ago we covered the SuiPlay0X1 as the first and best-selling handheld Web3 gaming device. Sui is growing in gaming, too. The MMORPG game Samurai Shodown R is coming to the SuiPlay0X1 as the first non-mobile phone device where you can access the game. Pretty cool stuff for gamers.

The point of all this is that Sui is hitting on all cylinders. Adoption is through the roof and people are coming for DeFi, games, and even memecoins, which we have coming up in a YouTube Spotlight video later this week. So don’t miss that. Sui may have had a recent price explosion to get to its price of $3.27. But it’s no accident. And it’s not just hype. By every important measure and metric, Sui is growing and becoming a more important part of the industry.
