Sui Blockchain DeFi TVL Skyrockets to $2.1 Billion
As per the data from DeFiLlama, the total value locked (TVL) on the Sui blockchain has surged all the way to $2.19 billion. Sui-based lending protocols have experienced a 78.86% surge in TVL over the past month, fueled by heightened liquidity incentives, attractive yields, and growing interest from both retail and institutional DeFi participants.
A key contributor to this growth is NAVI Protocol, the flagship lending and borrowing platform on Sui.

According to a recent announcement on X, the team highlighted the token’s growing momentum and emphasized NAVI’s expanding DeFi offerings on Sui, including lending, borrowing, liquid staking, and trading.

In addition to DeFi, Sui is also gaining prominence for real-world applications, especially in the loyalty and commerce sectors. Web3 commerce infrastructure provider Mojito, recently launched Mojito Loyalty, a gamified loyalty platform built entirely on Sui.
Mojito Loyalty allows brands to seamlessly integrate on-chain missions, rewards, and engagement features directly into their platforms, removing the need for additional wallets or external dashboards.
Mojito CEO Neil Mullins highlighted that the loyalty market is likely to reach $155 billion by 2029, and primed for major transformation. Leveraging Sui’s fast and cost-efficient infrastructure, Mojito delivers real-time, scalable user engagement while maintaining a seamless user experience.
“Golden Cross” Pattern Can Push SUI Price to $10
Over the past week, SUI price surged 16.7% to $4.0 levels and is currently the 11th largest cryptocurrency with a market cap of $13.1 billion. Speculation is mounting about the possibility of a third-ever golden cross for SUI this month, which can set the stage for bullish price action ahead.
The last two golden crosses on SUI’s 1D chart, where the 50-day moving average (MA50) crossed above the 200-day moving average (MA200), delivered impressive gains. Each instance resulted in over 200% price increases from the golden cross to the local cycle top.
