What’s Sui?
Sui is a next-gen layer-1 blockchain built for global adoption, offering high performance, scalability and user-friendly Web3 experiences.
Developed by Mysten Labs, a team of former Meta blockchain experts, Sui introduces innovations like an object-centric data model, the Move programming language, and tools like zkLogin to streamline blockchain interaction and accessibility.
Why Did Sui Rally?
There’s some evidence that Sui rallied on an increase in memecoin activity on the blockchain. Memes like $LOFI and $BLUB have soared in the past week while the broader memecoin sector has received renewed attention with Donald Trump’s revelation of an exclusive dinner for top TRUMP holders.
Then there’s the ongoing buzz around Grayscale’s SUI Trust, now open to “eligible accredited investors”, which is driving positive sentiment.
