Sui has partnered with Token Terminal to make institutional-grade on-chain analytics for the Sui network available through Token Terminal’s dashboards and API. The collaboration aims to standardize key usage and financial metrics across the Sui ecosystem, providing investors, analysts, and builders with transparent data and comparable benchmarks.
What the partnership includes
- Standardized metrics: Token Terminal will track core indicators for Sui, including network and protocol-level activity such as transactions, active users, fees and revenue, and, where applicable, DeFi metrics like total value locked (TVL) and DEX volume.
- Institutional access: Data will be available through Token Terminal’s dashboards and API, enabling quantitative research, portfolio monitoring, and cross-chain comparisons using a consistent methodology.
- Ecosystem visibility: Protocols built on Sui can be assessed alongside peers from other Layer-1 and Layer-2 networks, supporting comparative analysis of user growth, capital efficiency, and incentive spending.
Why it matters
Reliable, standardized on-chain data has become a cornerstone for institutional participation in digital assets. By integrating Sui into Token Terminal’s framework, the partnership is designed to:
- Improve transparency around Sui’s network activity and protocol performance.
- Provide a common set of metrics for analysts and asset managers evaluating Sui-based applications.
- Support founders and developers with data-driven insights into user acquisition, retention, and unit economics.
About Sui and Token Terminal
- Sui: A Layer-1 blockchain developed by Mysten Labs, designed for high throughput and low-latency transactions, using Move-based smart contracts. SUI is the network’s native token.
- Token Terminal: An analytics platform that aggregates and standardizes on-chain and protocol data to produce comparable, fundamentals-style metrics for crypto networks and applications.
Risks and limitations
- Methodology differences: Definitions of metrics (e.g., “revenue,” “active users”) can vary across data providers and may be updated over time.
- Data coverage: On-chain analytics may not capture off-chain activity or all protocol-specific nuances, and historical figures can be revised as datasets are refined.
- No disclosed terms: Financial details, exclusivity, and timelines for full metric coverage were not provided.
