SUI Gains 115% in September After USDC Integration, Memecoins Surge

SUI, a popular cryptocurrency, saw a massive 115% rise in value in September 2024 following its integration with USDC, a leading stablecoin. This integration spiked user activity and boosted the network, leading to significant gains for SUI and its associated memecoins.

SUI Price Surges to Six-Month High

As of October 4, SUI has climbed from $0.74 on September 2 to nearly $2, reaching its highest point in six months. This surge, just shy of its all-time high of $2.18, makes SUI one of the best-performing cryptocurrencies among the top 100 by market cap.

While the overall crypto market saw a 4.4% growth, and Bitcoin rose by 7.3%, SUI outpaced them significantly with its 115% rise, making it the second-highest gainer in the last 30 days.

Memecoins Boost SUI Ecosystem Growth

SUI’s rise in value was driven by the popularity of memecoins within its ecosystem. Memecoins like Aaa cat (AAA) and Suiba Inu (SUIB) have surged, with AAA gaining 430% in just a week. Suiba Inu followed with a 108% increase over the same period.

The largest meme token on SUI, Sudeng (HIPPO), also saw a 35% increase in its value, contributing to nearly half of the total memecoin market cap on the SUI blockchain. The total market cap of SUI memecoins rose by 15% to $256.3 million on October 4.

Rising Network Activity and DeFi Growth

SUI’s ecosystem is expanding beyond memecoins. Data from DefiLlama shows that SUI’s transaction volume grew by 661%, from $26.1 million on September 4 to $198.7 million on October 3. Total transactions on the network also saw a massive increase, with over 16.7 million new transactions in just 24 hours.

With increased user activity, higher transaction volumes, and more value locked in DeFi applications, SUI is positioning itself as a major player in the crypto world.
