SUI Price to See Bullish Momentum Ahead?

Will $SUI hit $10 this bull run?
Our first entry was at $0.60 — and the trend still looks strong! 🔥
If price dips into the $3.10–$2.50 demand zone, I’ll be accumulating more.Structure still bullish. Momentum intact.

He noted a key demand zone between $3.10 and $2.50, where he plans to accumulate more if prices retrace to that level. “Just waiting for a clean retest before the next leg up,” Patel stated, maintaining confidence in SUI’s upward trajectory.
Sui Foundation Comes to the Rescue
In a major announcement on May 27, the Sui Foundation provided a secured loan to Cetus to compensate for the user losses in full.
The Cetus team plans to use the loan proceeds, combined with treasury assets, to offset losses from stolen funds bridged out of the Sui network. This loan enables Cetus to cover losses beyond its internal funding capacity.
Moreover, the funds will exclusively address the bridged assets and are distinct from the frozen funds currently subject to an on-chain community vote. This development has led to a positive market sentiment around the altcoin.
Nasdaq Submits 21Shares SUI ETF Filing to US SEC
Nasdaq filed a proposal for 21Shares to list a spot Sui exchange-traded fund (ETF) with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on May 27. The May 23 filing, a 19b-4 request, comes after 21Shares submitted its S-1 registration statement on April 30, seeking SEC approval for trading the ETF.
21Shares has proposed BitGo and Coinbase Custody as custodians to securely hold SUI on behalf of the trust. Before this, Canary Capital has submitted both 19b-4 and S-1 filings for a spot Sui ETF.
