Recently, the SUI ecosystem has developed rapidly, with its market value entering the top 20, and the total locked value ( TVL ) surpassing 1 billion USD. This remarkable performance is the result of the combined effect of multiple factors.

• The price is overall on an upward trend, reaching a historical high of $2.18 on March 27.
