KuCoin Web3 Wallet Adds Sui Mainnet Support
cryptobriefing.com reports that KuCoin’s Web3 wallet has added support for Sui mainnet assets. This move allows users to manage tokens on the Move-based layer-1 blockchain directly from the platform’s self-custodial interface. KuCoin first listed SUI for spot trading in May 2023 and enabled USDC deposits on the network in October 2024.
The new integration enables users to hold, send, receive, and interact with Sui network tokens without leaving the wallet. Users can also access decentralized applications and cross-chain swaps for Sui assets. Sui utilizes an object-centric data model rather than Ethereum’s account-based approach.
This architecture allows the network to handle transactions with notably high throughput. The blockchain positions itself around the idea that “money moves as freely as messages.” KuCoin has been adding support for other networks like Robinhood Chain, 0G, Monad, and HyperEVM. The integration deepens Sui’s relationship with a major exchange ecosystem.
