So what exactly is SUI? Can you earn SUI tokens. Should you buy SUI tokens after its listing? Let’s find answer to all these questions.
What is SUI?
SUI is a decentralized, permissionless smart contract platform (DPoS layer 1 blockchain) that uses the Move programming language to manage assets with low latency. It defines assets as objects that can be owned by an address and allows for custom rules for their creation and transfer, as well as operations that mutate assets.
It is maintained by a permissionless set of authorities who use a Byzantine consistent broadcast protocol for the safety of common operations and relies only on Byzantine agreement for the safety of shared objects. SUI supports both light and full clients and has a native asset, SUI, used for gas payments and stake delegation to authorities.
What are the usecases of SUI token?
SUI token serves as the native utility token for the Sui blockchain and has several use cases, which include:
- Network fees: SUI can be used to pay for transaction fees on the Sui network.
- Validator staking: SUI holders can delegate their holdings to validators who manage transaction processing and execution on the Sui platform.
- Native liquidity: SUI provides liquidity to on-chain applications deployed on the Sui blockchain.
- Governance: SUI token holders have a claim on future governance of the Sui platform.

SUI Token Binance Launchpool Details

The farming period for both pools is two days, starting from May 1st, 2023 at 00:00 UTC and ending on May 2nd, 2023 at 23:59 UTC. Users who participate in the Launchpool can earn SUI tokens as a reward for staking their BNB or TUSD during this period.
Should You Participate in the Binance Launchpool SUI token offering?
I do not think there is any reason for you not to participate in the Binance launchpool offering of SUI tokens and here is why. First of all, you are not required to buy these SUI tokens. You can get them for free. All you need to do is to stake BNB or TUSD on Binance to get SUI tokens for free.
0.4% of the total token supply, which is 40 million tokens, are allocated for token rewards through the Launchpool program. This is going to be a great chance for those who could not get into early SUI token sale on Bybit, OkX or Kucoin.

You should be able to buy SUI tokens from Kucoin, OKX, Bybit and Binance. You should also be able to buy from Coinbase and other crypto exchanges (though listing news is not confirmed yet).
