Points to check
What our data shows that a holder should know. Each point is a measurement, not a rating.
- Supply still to come
142% more than today's circulating supply can still enter circulation (5.861 billion SUI), so the fully diluted value is 2.42x the market cap.
- Supply we cannot count
We do not run a Sui node: the supply is the project's or network's published figure, read every hour and labelled as such.
- Price swings
Its daily moves were 1.9x as large as bitcoin's over the past year (volatility 84% against 44%).
- Distance from the high
It trades 84% below its all-time high daily close of $5.29 (4 Jan 2025).
- Moves with bitcoin
Its daily returns had a correlation of 0.77 with bitcoin's over the past year, so it has added little diversification to a bitcoin holding.
