I’ve seen this before. $SUI is front-running the next rotation.
Crypto capital usually flows in phases:
$BTC → $ETH → Majors → Alt-L1s → Small caps
$SUI is my bet for the Alts. It's one of the best performing L1 and it's not yet overexposed.
➤ TVL Has Quietly 10x’d Since January
@SuiNetwork's TVL has surged past $1.94B, per DeFiLlama.
What stands out isn’t just the growth — it’s the quality.
We’re seeing usage across:
• @Scallop_io (lending)
• @CetusProtocol / @DeepBookonSui (DEX infrastructure)
• @moledefi (yield farm)
• @navi_protocol and @AftermathFi (ecosystem banking)
This isn’t yield-chasing capital. It’s sticky liquidity.
➤ $SUI’s Narrative Lag = Potential Upside
Unlike #Solana or #AVAX, #SUI hasn’t had a breakout moment in the narrative cycle.
That’s a double-edged sword — but in current conditions, it’s a strength.
- SUI isn’t overcrowded.
- It’s not on every thread.
- And yet its core advantages (MoveVM, parallel execution, venture backing) remain intact.
If congestion or fee pressures increase on other chains, performant L1s like SUI become increasingly attractive.
➤ Relative Valuation Is Still Low
From a market cap perspective, SUI is trading below chains like $APTOS and $AVAX — despite outpacing them in:
• TVL growth
• Developer activity
• App-level traction
It hasn’t had a true cycle repricing.
That sets up a favorable asymmetry — particularly if broader alt rotation picks up steam.
➤ Conclusion
The signs are subtle — but they’re adding up.
TVL up. Active usage up. Capital flowing in. Narrative still underplayed.
If we are, in fact, entering a new altcoin rotation phase, SUI looks well-positioned to be among the early beneficiaries.
No hype. Just relative strength.
