Why Sui?

Sui, pronounced “swē,” is a Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS) chain with its own consensus and validation mechanics. This Layer 1 blockchain doesn’t just ride on any consensus wave; it powers its network with a Move-based framework that prioritizes both transaction speed and security, building a versatile ecosystem that’s drawing increasing interest from developers and users alike.

Starting the year with around $200 million in TVL, Sui has achieved over 360% growth, reaching nearly $1 billion by November. This indicates a significant influx of capital and heightened user engagement, suggesting that more users are locking assets within Sui’s ecosystem!

In addition to its TVL growth, Sui has demonstrated impressive transaction volumes, even outside these surges, Sui maintains a steady baseline of daily transactions, reflecting a resilient core user base and ongoing engagement. This combination of rapid TVL growth and transaction volume highlights Sui’s readiness for cross-chain interoperability, making it an ideal candidate for Router Nitro’s bridging capabilities.

Router Nitro’s Cross-Chain Journey: Connecting to Sui

With this integration, Router Nitro is extending its powerful cross-chain capabilities to include Sui, joining a lineup that already includes Tron, Osmosis, Bitcoin, Solana, and more. Nitro has built a reputation as the fastest, most affordable bridge in the crypto space, and adding Sui brings a whole new dimension of connectivity and flexibility for users and developers.

One exciting part of this integration is Nitro’s ability to transfer any asset between Sui and any EVM chain–all while enjoying Nitro’s low transaction fees and industry-leading speed (over 1,166% faster than many alternatives).

Besides, to enable Cross-chain swaps on Sui, Router Nitro has partnered with Aftermath Finanace! Itone of the leading DeFi aggregators on Sui, brings the best of both worlds — combining the convenience of a centralized exchange with the transparency of a DEX.

By connecting Sui to a wider world of assets and dApps, Router Nitro is making cross-chain interaction smoother and more accessible than ever, moving us closer to a truly interconnected Web3.

What to Expect from This Integration

  • Earn $SUI on Every Transfer: As part of this integration, you’ll earn 0.015 $SUI for every cross-chain transaction to Sui. This incentive makes it easier to dive into the thriving Sui ecosystem while exploring the benefits of Nitro’s seamless bridging capabilities.
  • Industry-First Cross-Chain Path: For the first time in the industry, you can swap any token of your choice between EVM chains like Polygon, BNB, Ethereum, and Sui.
  • Fast, Low-Cost Transfers: Router Nitro’s cross-chain swaps deliver cost-effective transfers and completion times that outpace many existing bridges, providing a decentralized experience that’s both fast and affordable.
  • Effortless Multi-Chain Access: With Nitro’s intuitive single-click interface, the experience is crafted to expand access while minimizing the steps required to move assets and interact across multiple blockchains.
  • Complete Decentralization: As a bridge fully powered by the Router Chain, Nitro ensures that transactions remain decentralized end-to-end, securing assets and data for users across every integrated network.

The Future of Router and Sui

Router Nitro’s continued expansion is about more than just integrating blockchains; it’s about empowering users to seamlessly connect assets, dApps, and ecosystems in a truly decentralized manner. By onboarding Sui, Router Nitro strengthens its standing as a core bridge for the Web3 economy, providing builders and users with an interconnected ecosystem that brings the best of decentralized tech to everyone’s fingertips.

But the integration doesn’t stop there. Router is also developing an Intent Adapter specifically for Sui-based protocols, designed to deliver chain-abstracted experiences like never before. This means that soon, users will be able to perform complex actions — such as one-click liquidity provision, staking, and unstaking — right from any chain and with any asset. Imagine being able to manage your DeFi positions on Sui seamlessly, without having to move assets back and forth or deal with multiple interfaces. This Intent Adapter will simplify cross-chain interactions with a single, intuitive click, bringing a whole new level of accessibility to the Sui ecosystem.
