In less than two years since its Mainnet launch, Sui has achieved a remarkable milestone, reaching $1 billion in Total Value Locked (TVL) across its decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem.

Some of the leading DeFi protocols on the Sui network include:
– Navi Protocol: $371M+ TVL
– Cetus Protocol: $174M+ TVL
– SuiLend Protocol: $170M+ TVL
– Scallop: $170M+ TVL
– Aftermath Finance: $99M+ TVL

Additionally, DeepBook v2, Sui’s decentralized order book, has been utilized by over 736,000 wallets, processing more than 100 million transaction blocks and generating over $5 billion in trading volume. Its upgraded DeepBook v3 testnet saw engagement from 120,000 wallets, processing 1.3 million transaction blocks within just two weeks.

Launched in May 2023, Sui’s native token, $SUI, powers the layer-1 blockchain that uses its own consensus and validation mechanisms to handle transactions on the network. Sui’s standout features include:

– Parallel transaction processing, enabling high throughput.
– An object-centric data model tailored for ownership and asset management.
– Instant transaction finality, minimizing uncertainty.
– Horizontally scalable architecture without performance bottlenecks.
– Built-in support for NFTs, Web3 applications, and DeFi.
– Developer-friendly tools and modular architecture for easier development.

Sui’s recent integration of Circle’s USDC has further fueled community excitement, as it allows developers to create seamless cross-chain transactions with networks like Ethereum and Solana, positioning Sui as a competitive player in the blockchain space.
