SUI (SUI) rebounded forcefully Thursday morning after a steep overnight drop, rising from $3.52 to $3.78 in just five hours, according to CoinDesk Analytics.

What to know:

  • SUI dropped 8% overnight before recovering to near previous highs.
  • Trading volume surged at the $3.52 level, indicating strong support during volatile conditions.
  • Spot ETF filings for SUI point to growing institutional and regulatory interest in the token.

SUI (SUI) rebounded forcefully on Thursday, rising to $3.78 from $3.52 in just five hours, after slumping 8% during the U.S. night.

The token had dropped from $3.82 starting around 11 p.m. ET before bottoming out at 3 a.m. ET. At that point, trading volume swelled to 35.4 million. That's more than double its 24-hour average turnover, hinting at concentrated buying interest.

That bounce carried the token close to its previous high, suggesting large market participants were accumulating during dips, though price action remains choppy.

The comeback follows movement on the regulatory front. On Wednesday, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission moved Canary Capital’s spot SUI exchange-traded fund proposal to the “institution of proceedings” phase. The same day, 21Shares submitted paperwork for its own SUI ETF product.

These developments mark tentative but real steps toward mainstreaming the token, potentially widening access to investors who prefer regulated vehicles.

Still, traders may want to watch whether this latest price action turns into a sustained trend. The $3.82 mark now looks like a resistance level, according to CoinDesk Research's technical analysis model. Early sellers have stepped in and the token is still caught in a broader consolidation range.

SUI was recently down 0.42% in the past 24 hours. The broader market, measured by the CoinDesk 20 Index, is off by roughly 1%.

KuCoin Hits Record Market Share as 2025 Volumes Outpace Crypto Market

16:9 Image

KuCoin captured a record share of centralised exchange volume in 2025, with more than $1.25tn traded as its volumes grew faster than the wider crypto market.

What to know:

  • KuCoin recorded over $1.25 trillion in total trading volume in 2025, equivalent to an average of roughly $114 billion per month, marking its strongest year on record.
  • This performance translated into an all-time high share of centralised exchange volume, as KuCoin’s activity expanded faster than aggregate CEX volumes, which slowed during periods of lower market volatility.
  • Spot and derivatives volumes were evenly split, each exceeding $500 billion for the year, signalling broad-based usage rather than reliance on a single product line.
  • Altcoins accounted for the majority of trading activity, reinforcing KuCoin’s role as a primary liquidity venue beyond BTC and ETH at a time when majors saw more muted turnover.
  • Even as overall crypto volumes softened mid-year, KuCoin maintained elevated baseline activity, indicating structurally higher user engagement rather than short-lived volume spikes.
