Sui Emerges As Top 10 Blockchain By Total Value Locked
Sui is a decentralized smart contract platform that prioritizes efficient asset management with low latency. It adopts the Move programming language to categorize assets as objects owned by specific addresses. Move programs outline operations on these categorized objects, encompassing custom regulations for their creation, transfer to new owners, and other asset-altering actions.
Launched less than a year ago by ex-members of Facebook’s Libra initiative, Sui has swiftly entered the arena alongside high-performing blockchains such as Solana, Aptos, and Sei. Last May, the platform officially launched its mainnet.
Recently, Sui has climbed the ranks to become one of the top 10 blockchains in terms of total value locked (TVL), as per data from DefiLlama, with TVL exceeding $402 million. As of the current writing, Sui’s TVL stands at $588.38 million.
