Simply Explained: Sui

In Japanese philosophy, Sui is the water element; its power lies in its fluidity. Its goal is to provide a flexible network that builders can leverage to “shape the Web3 landscape.”

What is Sui?

Sui is a Layer 1 blockchain. It was designed by former Meta (Facebook) employees to allow creators and developers to build on-chain assets.

Let’s dive in.

Solving Web3 pain points?

Due to limited throughput and scalability, poor user experiences are common in Web3. Games and services are slow and expensive. 

“Existing technology suffers from restrictive storage methods and inherently unsafe programmability models, which force developers to compromise on functionality and user experience,” said Sui creator Even Cheng. 

It aims to solve that by offering a secure and scalable platform that delivers a simplified user experience at a low cost. 

How? By scaling horizontally. 

It uses what’s known as “parallel agreement” on independent transactions. 

For some context, most blockchains (e.g., Ethereum) execute smart contracts and transactions sequentially. This means that all submitted transactions that are awaiting confirmation by validators are verified individually and in a particular (sequential) order. 

Instead, Sui allows for parallel agreements across independent transactions. This means that a large number of transactions can be processed at the same time.

Designed for builders

Sui is designed to offer a simple user experience that is accessible to mainstream builders and developers. It promises that builders will “spend less time fixing smart contracts, more time building cool sh*t.”

Move programming language

The platform is built on Sui Move, an upgraded version of the Move smart contract programming language. Currently, the main blockchain programming language is Solidity. It was designed to implement basic programming concepts. 

However, as blockchain technology has developed, it has become clear that the main role of blockchain languages is to work with digital assets and ensure security, for which Move was specifically designed. 

It takes advantage of Move’s flexibility and security and enhances it to improve performance and make programming easier.

Is Sui live? 

Sui launched its Sui Devnet in May 2022. It is currently working on its Testnet. 

Testnet, as the word suggests, refers to a blockchain or protocol that is currently not fully developed, or requires trialling before going live, with large amounts of user funds at risk.

Does Sui have a token?

It plans to have a public token, called SUI, for the Sui Mainnet. However, it is not yet available, and according to Sui’s website, there is currently no timeline either.

It uses the proof of stake (PoS) consensus mechanism. SUI token holders will be able to stake their tokens to participate in the PoS mechanism in return for rewards paid in gas fees. 

Holders will also be able to participate in Sui’s governance.

Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.

We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.
