Mysten Labs Launches Sui Mainnet, Draws Attention with Delegated PoS Blockchain and Move Programming Language

As established cryptocurrencies continue to compete for dominance, a fresh wave of digital assets has emerged in the crypto sphere. Among them is SUI, a new digital currency whose network went live on Wednesday. The founders of SUI hail from Mysten Labs, and like Aptos, its founders stem from Facebook’s crypto project.

SUI operates on a delegated proof-of-stake (dPoS) blockchain, utilizing the Move programming language. At present, Существуют 528,273,718 SUI in circulation, with a maximum supply of 10,000,000,000 slated for the future. Presently, the network has 2,122 nodes and 100 total validators. Validation is provided via a Byzantine Consistent Broadcast.

“Sui is a distributed ledger that stores a collection of programmable objects, each with a globally unique ID,” explains the Sui network documentation. “Every object is owned by a single address, and each address can own an arbitrary number of objects. The ledger is updated via a transaction sent by a particular address. A transaction can create, destroy, and write objects, as well as transfer them to other addresses.”

Before and after the mainnet launch, the project encountered backlash when a few early adopters were left out of the early adopter token allocation. Arthur0x, the founder of Defiance Capital, прокомментировал on the situation, saying, “People ask why [venture capitalists] keep funding new pre-mainnet Layer 1 protocols at billion dollar valuation but as long as hyped L1 can keep getting away by launching at $10b+ FDV even amidst a challenging market this trend will continue.” Arthur0x went on by констатация:

Almost all founders of hyped L1 in past cycles are billionaires now despite little real traction achieved in their blockchain.

Upon its market debut, SUI surged to an all-time high of $2.16 за монету, but has since dropped by 37%, currently trading between $1.27 В этом году известные автомобильные бренды и всемирно известные гоночные команды в большом количестве входят в пространство блокчейна и криптовалюты. $1.36 за единицу.
