Volume Builds Over Time
Sui’s DEX activity remained limited through most of 2023. That changed in early 2024, when volume began to rise. By the end of that year, monthly trading had passed $10 billion, continuing to grow through 2025.
Between July and September 2025, Sui held steady with monthly volumes around $15–16 billion. The move to over $18 billion in October broke that range. This shift may point to rising user activity, better liquidity, or protocol updates. The reason behind the spike has not been confirmed.
Price Holds Key Levels
As of October 20, SUI was priced at $2.63, showing a small gain of 1% in the last 24 hours. Over the past week, the price is down 8.5%. Trading volume stands at $917 million for the same 24-hour period.
Chart data shared by CryptoZee shows SUI bouncing from a support zone between $2.00 and $2.20. This level has supported past price action. The next zone of interest is the $2.90 to $3.20 range, where previous moves have stalled. A break above this range could open the way toward $3.98, which matches price levels last seen in August.
CryptoZee posted, “The $SUI chart is setting up the ultimate ‘Buy the Dip’ opportunity,” referring to the $2.00 area as a possible entry zone.
Current Market Watch
SUI was showing early signs of recovery from its recent pullback. Traders are now watching to see if price can move above the resistance zone. Until that happens, short-term direction remains uncertain.
The jump in DEX volume and technical setup has drawn attention as the Sui network moves into the final months of the year.
