Analysis of On-chain Coin Holders on the One-month Anniversary of Sui Mainnet Launch

On May 3rd, the Sui mainnet was officially launched, with a funding amount exceeding $300 million and a valuation of $2 billion. Instead of conducting an airdrop, Sui opted for an Initial Exchange Offering (IEO) or Initial DEX Offering (IDO). Based on the on-chain security analysis platform ChainAegis, the SharkTeam conducted a comprehensive analysis of Sui's IEO/IDO, trading volume, and coin holders over the course of one month. The details are as follows.

1. IEO/IDO Analysis

On April 15th, three major exchanges, OKX, Bybit, and KuCoin, announced the listing of Sui Token and introduced a whitelist subscription mechanism for Sui Token.

Taking OKX as an example, Sui Token sales were divided into two categories: public sales and whitelist sales. The total supply for public sales was 225,000,000 SUI, with a sale price of 1 SUI = $0.1. Individuals were allowed to purchase a maximum of 10,000 SUI. After the SUI mainnet went live, users could unlock the first batch of 1/13 of the new coins, and the remaining 12 batches would be unlocked at the same time each month, completing the full unlocking process within a year. The unlocked new coins would be automatically released to the funding account. Whitelist sales were only open to contributors to the Sui ecosystem. Users who completed the Sui Foundation's whitelist verification enjoyed the benefit of purchasing 25,000,000 SUI at $0.03 each. The maximum individual purchase limit was 1,500 SUI, with no locking period. The sales rules for KuCoin were the same as OKX. Bybit conducted sales in the form of a whitelist, with a total supply of 94,000,000 SUI and a sale price of 1 SUI = $0.03. The individual purchase limit ranged from $10 to $45.

Cetus is a decentralized trading platform and centralized liquidity protocol built on the Sui and Aptos blockchains. On June 9th, Cetus TVL (Total Value Locked) ranked first on the Sui network with a value of $10.34 million, accounting for 62.59% of the total TVL. On May 3rd, Cetus released the details of its Initial DEX Offering (IDO). The IDO had a hard cap of 800,000 SUI, with each CETUS token priced at 0.04 SUI, representing 2% of the total token supply being made available to the market. 70% of the raised funds in SUI would be used for initial liquidity, while 30% would be allocated for xCETUS staking rewards. Cetus exceeded its fundraising target by 13,530.88%, raising a total of 108,247,043.828 SUI.

Suia is a social dApp built on the Sui network and currently has over 300,000 users. It is the first IDO project on Cetus, apart from its native platform token, $CETUS. The IDO takes place simultaneously in two launch pools, offering 4,000,000 SUIA tokens (4% of the total token supply) to the market.

The SUIA-SUI launch pool supplies 3,000,000 SUIA tokens, with a hard cap of 900,000 SUI. The price per SUIA token is 0.3 SUI. The SUIA-CETUS launch pool supplies 1,000,000 SUIA tokens, with a hard cap of 2,500,000 CETUS. The price per SUIA token is 2.5 CETUS.

The SUIA-SUI launch pool has 2,000 whitelist participants, with each user having a protected allocation of 300 SUI. On the other hand, the SUIA-CETUS launch pool does not have whitelist participants.

The SUI pool has exceeded its fundraising target by 4,476.35%, raising a total of 40,287,207.8588 SUI. The CETUS pool has exceeded its fundraising target by 1,895.72%, raising a total of 47,393,093.3465 CETUS.

2. Trading Volume Analysis

Below are the trading statistics for the top 10 Sui trading pairs on various exchanges. On May 18th, the SUI/USD pair was listed on Coinbase, and on June 5th, it reached its highest trading volume in history, with 1.906 million SUI traded. The maximum trading volumes for the other trading pairs were reached on May 3rd.

The average trading volume for the SUI/USDT pair on Binance is 69,652,324.32 SUI, while on KuCoin, the average trading volume for the SUI/USDT pair is 7,509,972.97 SUI.

  • Apple Plunges Nearly 10%, Q4 Revenue Guidance Misses Expectations

    On July 31, Apple (AAPL.US) plunged nearly 10% to $300.33, marking its biggest drop since April 2025. In terms of fundamentals, Apple's third-fiscal-quarter revenue rose approximately 16% year-over-year to $109.42 billion, slightly above analyst expectations. Among the details, product revenue came in at $78.68 billion, beating the expected $77.25 billion. However, services revenue—a key driver of its valuation re-rating in recent years—totaled $30.74 billion, missing the consensus estimate of $31.36 billion. Additionally, Greater China revenue reached $18.82 billion, with year-over-year growth slowing to 22%, also below analysts' forecast of $19.58 billion. During the earnings call, Apple guided fourth-fiscal-quarter revenue growth in the range of 9% to 11%, overall below the 12.1% analysts had expected. CFO Parekh noted that component supply constraints would impact iPhone, Mac, and iPad businesses in the fourth fiscal quarter, with currency fluctuations also constraining growth.

  • Three Fed Officials Back Rate Hike, Hawkish Pressure Builds

    On July 31, three Federal Reserve policymakers said that dissenting votes in favor of a rate hike this week stemmed from stubborn inflationary pressures, highlighting rising internal pressure on Fed Chair Warsh to act. In statements released Friday morning, Hammack and Kashkari said they worry that although the current round of price increases may stem from short-term factors such as President Trump's tariff policies and the Iran war, the inflation situation already warrants Fed action. Logan also joined in, saying that even if inflation cools, if the Fed does not raise rates, inflation is unlikely to fully fall back to the Fed's 2% target; without any policy constraints, inflation could continue to run above target until an unexpected shock occurs. Kashkari said that if inflation remains persistently stubborn, he might support a series of rate hikes, not just a single increase, to prevent inflation from becoming further entrenched. He said: "A series of small policy adjustments may be preferable to waiting for developments to unfold and ultimately having to take more forceful action." Hammack said that if the Fed does not tighten policy, price increases could continue to accelerate. She said: "Inflation has been stubbornly above 2% for more than five years, and I have no confidence that it will return to our target on its own." (Jin Shi)
