Sui Network Disrupts Payments & DeFi with USDsui Stablecoin Launch

Sui just dropped a financial grenade in the crypto space—USDsui, its native stablecoin designed to turbocharge payments and DeFi protocols. Move over USDT, there's a new sheriff in town.

Why this matters: Stablecoins are the backbone of crypto's financial ecosystem, and Sui's move signals a direct play for market dominance. Traders get instant settlements; DeFi apps gain a fresh liquidity pipeline.

The cynical twist? Another 'algorithmic stablecoin' enters the arena—just what we needed after the last three collapsed spectacularly. But hey, maybe fourth time's the charm?

USDsui for everyday use and DeFi

According to the press release, the stablecoin supports yield-sharing and real-world use cases, including e-commerce, gaming, and traditional payments. It is built to follow the GENIUS Act, a bill passed into law this year to regulate stablecoins, so it can work with automated systems and AI transactions on the network. 

USDsui is already made available across wallets, DeFi platforms, and apps built on Sui. It can also work with other stablecoins supported by Bridge, including tokens on Phantom, Hyperliquid, and MetaMask.

Built for developers and global payments

Bridge’s Open Issuance platform allows USDsui to launch quickly with strong infrastructure and provides developers with immediate access so they can use it to create apps and services without extra technical work. The platform also makes it possible to send money across countries, make peer-to-peer transfers, and use the token in real-world payments.

“This landmark product launch on Bridge connects Sui’s native assets directly to global commerce, fintech, and traditional financial rails,” said Adeniyi Abiodun, Co-Founder and Chief Product Officer at Mysten Labs. “We are building a self-sustaining ecosystem where stablecoin economics fuels real-world adoption.”

USDsui is connected to Sui’s native liquidity layer, Deepbook, and can support in-game economies like EVE Frontier.

Why it matters

The USDsui stablecoin provides a native and compliant environment for Sui’s blockchain ecosystem. Its structure gives developers on the network a ready-to-use, high-performance platform that can help them build applications, while users can send funds across wallets and platforms seamlessly.

The launch also comes months after President Donald TRUMP passed the GENIUS Act into law, which makes it regulated and a trustworthy option for investors. With Sui already processing over $412 billion in stablecoin transactions, USDsui is expected to strengthen the network’s economy while competing with other stablecoins like USDC, USDT, and the rest.
