SUI has gained market attention after announcing a partnership with Ethena Labs for the release of two native stablecoins, announcing large-scale growth for its $12.97 billion network. Despite a slight dip to $3.57, analysts maintain a bullish outlook, projecting potential highs near $9.01 by 2026.
Sui is trading at $3.57, down 0.47% on a 24-hour range of $3.53–$3.69. With a market capitalization of $12.97 billion and a trading volume of $1.23 billion, Sui remains a darling of investor attention despite growing ecosystem activity.
Holding Above $2.20 Could Confirm Bullish Pattern
Crypto analyst Zeru highlighted that Sui recently launched two native stablecoins in collaboration with Ethena Labs, a project that has a $30-billion ecosystem valuation. In a single month, August 2025, Sui processed $229 billion worth of stablecoin transfers, reflecting the blockchain’s growing usage in terms of networking as well as scalability.
Coincheckup experts forecast a bullish trend, which means a new all-time high of $9.01 should be seen by 2026. Technical analysis also lends support towards optimism, staying above $2.20 might validate a W-reversal formation, seeking $6.90-$8.98 towards the end of 2025 or early 2026.
However, analysts caution that a breakdown below $2.20 might lead to a retest of the $1.44–$2.63 range in 2026. For October 2025, October trading for Sui should range between $2.48 and $3.55, indicating a consolidation period preceding a likely breakout, building momentum.
