Sui SUI
Applications and digital assets.
Sui is a public blockchain for applications and digital assets. SUI is its native coin.
What is Sui?
Sui lets applications create and update digital assets through smart contracts. SUI pays for computation and stored data, and can be staked with validators that help operate the network.
Application risks are separate from the network’s design. Staking rules and validator performance affect participation; returns are not guaranteed.
