SUI Sets Records with Market Cap Surpassing $8 Billion: What’s Driving the Surge?
The SUI ecosystem is gaining significant traction this October, breaking records and attracting investor interest. While many altcoins struggle, SUI has reached a new peak of $2.16.
The total market cap for the SUI ecosystem has soared to $8.54 billion, with SUI itself accounting for about $5.38 billion. First Digital USD (FDUSD) makes up nearly $3 billion, and daily trading volumes have surpassed $6 billion, driven mainly by SUI and FDUSD.
Meme coins in the SUI ecosystem have also seen notable growth, now valued at over $296 million—up 170% since the start of the month. Investors in SUI frequently reinvest in other projects within the ecosystem, echoing trends seen with Solana’s rise last year.

Recent data highlights SUI’s strong performance, ranking third in altcoin netflow behind Ethereum and Solana. Additionally, SUI has captured more than 9% of capital flowing from Ethereum, indicating heightened activity in its network.
SUI’s market dominance has risen dramatically, increasing 270% to reach 0.27%, before settling slightly lower at 0.26%. This growth reflects growing investor interest, especially as Bitcoin’s dominance remains above 56%.
While some analysts, including CryptoGoos, see parallels between SUI’s current performance and Solana’s past surges, there are concerns about potential price corrections. With SUI’s price having jumped nearly 120% in the last month, profit-taking from early investors could impact its future trajectory.
