The burgeoning world of Decentralized Finance (DeFi) has witnessed a rollercoaster ride for newcomer Sui, a Layer 1 blockchain designed to scale DeFi applications. After a stellar start to 2024, Sui’s Total Value Locked (TVL) – a metric reflecting the total value of crypto assets deposited in its DeFi protocols – surged to a record $724 million in late March. However, this celebratory moment proved fleeting, as the platform has since experienced a downward trend.

Despite the recent decline, Sui’s<a href="https://defillama.com/chain/Sui" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow"> TVL currently sits at a healthy $654</a> million, according to DeFiLlama. This translates to a 12% drop from its peak, showcasing a correction following its initial surge. However, it’s important to note that Sui remains in a positive light compared to some established players.

While the recent dip might raise concerns, Sui boasts a more optimistic outlook when considering a broader timeframe. Compared to its New Year’s Day value, the current TVL represents a significant 25.5% increase. 
This upward trajectory extends further back, with a staggering 68% growth since the beginning of the year. This impressive background performance fuels optimism for Sui’s potential to regain its momentum, potentially propelling it towards a coveted spot amongst the top 10 DeFi chains.

The price of Sui’s native token (SUI) reflects a similar pattern to its TVL. <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/sui/" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Currently trading at $1.65</a>, SUI has shed nearly 30% of its value compared to its all-time high of $2.20 reached in late March. Despite the recent slump, SUI has managed a modest 2% daily increase. However, zooming out reveals a 11% loss over the past week.

Regaining the lost TVL will be a key test for Sui’s development team. Identifying the reasons behind the user exodus is essential. Were there any security concerns or technical glitches that caused users to pull their funds? Transparency and addressing these issues head-on will be critical for rebuilding user confidence.

Meanwhile, a vibrant DEX ecosystem is another pillar for Sui’s future. Decentralized Exchanges allow users to trade cryptocurrencies directly with each other, without the need for a centralized intermediary. 
Fostering a healthy DEX landscape will attract more users and liquidity to the Sui blockchain, ultimately boosting its TVL. Enticing established DEX protocols to migrate to Sui or supporting the development of native DEX solutions could be effective strategies.
