Sui Solidifies Position Among Top 10 DeFi Ecosystems
Sui, one of the fastest-growing Layer 1 blockchains, has surpassed $500 million in Total Value Locked (TVL), marking a 1500% surge in TVL over the latter half of 2023 and doubling its value since early 2024. This achievement cements Sui’s place in the top 10 DeFi ecosystems globally.
Explosive On-Chain Activity
- Weekly DeFi Volume: $745M (63% increase from previous periods).
- Ecosystem Ranking: Top 5 most active ecosystems recently.
The growth highlights Sui’s underlying technology, enabling developers to build scalable solutions for real-world challenges and attracting leading projects to expand within its ecosystem.

Strategic Partnerships & Ecosystem Expansion
Sui has secured key collaborations with industry leaders:
- Ondo Finance: Integrating treasury-backed tokens, tokenized securities, and real-world assets—Sui’s first native stablecoin is imminent.

- Oracle Stork: Providing real-time pricing data for Sui’s developers, DEXs, and lending protocols.
Greg Siourounis, Managing Director of the Sui Foundation, stated:
"Sui’s rise reflects its ability to attract top-tier developers. These partnerships and metrics prove its long-term potential in driving adoption and innovation."

Two Sui-based protocols crossed $100M TVL for the first time:
- Navi Protocol: $114M TVL (+184% in 30 days).
Scallop Lend: $116M TVL (+258% in 30 days).
Other top projects:- Cetus ($72M)
- Aftermath Finance ($58M)
- FlowX Finance ($49M)
Why Sui Stands Out
Sui’s object-centric model, horizontal scalability, and Move Language position it as a hub for cutting-edge blockchain solutions. Its TVL growth stems from protocols leveraging Sui’s speed and efficiency.
