Sui ($SUI ) Eyes $4 Breakout as Institutional Demand, zkTunnels, and DeFi Growth Fuel Momentum

The Sui Network ($SUI) is emerging as one of the most promising Layer-1 blockchains in the crypto space, fueled by a surge in institutional adoption, breakthrough innovations like #zkTunnels , and rapid #DeFi ecosystem expansion. Trading at $3.73—up 8.7% on the day—#SUI is pushing toward a critical resistance level near $4, buoyed by fresh investor confidence and rising on-chain activity.

With a market capitalization of over $13 billion, Sui is rapidly shedding its image as a speculative altcoin and positioning itself as a serious infrastructure layer for #Web3 , real-world industries, and institutional-grade decentralized finance.

zkTunnels: Transforming IoT and Real-Time Blockchain Communication

A standout feature drawing both investor and developer interest is zkTunnels, Sui’s proprietary zero-knowledge communication layer that enables fee-free, real-time operations across smart devices. Built with scalability and efficiency in mind, zkTunnels aim to bridge blockchain and the Internet of Things (#IoT ), unlocking a new frontier where machines can transact trustlessly without latency or gas fees.

This positions Sui uniquely for industries such as robotics, autonomous systems, and supply chain automation—use cases that require high-frequency, low-cost transactions at scale.

Massive Institutional Inflows Highlight Long-Term Confidence

The surge in SUI’s price is supported by an extraordinary wave of institutional investment. In a notable move, Mill City Ventures, a publicly traded investment firm, acquired $450 million worth of SUI tokens, adding the asset to its treasury.

This is one of the largest single-token treasury purchases by a regulated entity this year, reflecting a strong vote of confidence in Sui’s roadmap, performance, and use-case potential.
