SUI plummeted 9.25% from $3.72 to $3.38, with heaviest selling during midnight hours UTC on volume 78% higher than daily average

The recent correction comes amid broader geopolitical tensions affecting cryptocurrency markets globally.

While Bitcoin has shown resilience above critical resistance zones, SUI has faced downward pressure despite strong fundamentals.

The Cetus Protocol exploit that resulted in $223 million in stolen assets (with $162 million frozen) has created uncertainty, though the Sui community appears poised to approve a recovery plan with 71% of validators already voting “yes” to return the frozen funds.
