Blockchain $SUI , a rapidly growing layer one network, set a new record, reaching a weekly trading volume on decentralized exchanges (DEX) of $3.649 billion for the period from April 20 to April 26, 2025, according to DeFiLlama. This is the highest figure in the network's history, highlighting its rapid growth in the decentralized finance (DeFi) sector.
The key drivers of success were the DEX platforms Cetus and DeepBook, which provided high liquidity and low transaction costs. DeepBook, the central order book of Sui, processed significant trading volumes in just a week, contributing to the scalability of the network. The total value locked (TVL) in Sui increased by 38% to $1.64 billion, and the 24-hour trading volume on DEX reached $599 million, which is 177% higher than the previous week.
The token price $SUI increased by 4.5–78% over the week, reflecting growing investor interest. Analysts attribute Sui's success to its unique architecture, the Move programming language, and the integration of stablecoins, which contribute to mass adoption. Sui surpassed Arbitrum in DEX volume, becoming the fifth largest chain, but still lags behind Solana and Ethereum.
