Highlights
- Sui's removal of protocol fees drove stablecoin transaction volume to $65 billion, reducing costs and boosting network activity.
- Private transaction pilot programs and inclusion in T. Rowe Price's multi-asset crypto ETF position Sui for greater institutional and future adoption.

Transaction spike as protocol fee cut and institutional entry boost demand
Sui's recent elimination of protocol fees has led to a substantial surge in stablecoin transaction volume, reaching $65 billion and making network use more cost-effective. This operational change increases transactional activity and liquidity on the blockchain, translating directly into heightened demand for Sui's ecosystem. Complementing this, ongoing pilot tests for private transaction features are positioning Sui for future adoption momentum, while its inclusion in T. Rowe Price's new multi-asset crypto ETF offers an avenue for increased institutional exposure.
Technical gains face caution as oscillators diverge on momentum
SUI/USD is trading above the MA-20 at $0.7810 and the MA-50 at $0.7712 on the hourly chart, while remaining below the longer-term MA-200 at $1.1507. The Ichimoku Kijun serves as immediate support at $0.7748. MACD shows a Strong Buy reading and the ADX gives a Buy signal, with RSI in Buy territory at 60.16. Stochastic RSI signals Oversold, CCI reads Neutral, Bull/Bear Power (BBP) reflects buyer dominance, and the Awesome Oscillator remains Neutral. Price is hovering near the day's high on moderate volatility. Divergence between upward momentum and Stoch RSI's Oversold condition suggests some caution may be warranted.
Consolidation range likely as high upside risk tempers selling scenario
Over the next two to three trading days, SUI/USD is expected to consolidate within the $0.7833 to $0.8319 band as typical volatility. The probability of further upside movement remains very high, while a downward break through support at $0.7748 would introduce renewed selling pressure. A bullish scenario would see the price breaking out above resistance for further gains, while a bearish scenario could occur only if immediate support is breached decisively.
Earlier, analysts noted that Sui was facing persistent bearish momentum with sellers maintaining control amid continued downside risk. The recent shift in technicals and strong ecosystem developments signal a potential turning point, making the integrity of the $0.7748 support level a crucial indicator for the next directional move.
