Sui Community pointed to $2.80 and $4.50 as targets, long-term aim set at $9 for SUI

SUI, the native token of the Sui ecosystem, has once again moved into the market’s spotlight. While the token’s price remains notably below its previous peaks, some market observers believe that conditions for a long-term recovery may be forming in this Layer 1 network. Chart analysts suggest that SUI may be moving from a correction phase to an accumulation period, signaling a possible shift in market sentiment.

Support and resistance levels shape SUI’s outlook

According to the Sui Community team, SUI may potentially reach $9 in the long run. They have also set interim price targets at $2.80 and $4.50. This perspective suggests the current price action may be more than just short-term volatility and could lay the groundwork for sustained gains.

On the weekly chart, SUI saw strong gains after forming a base for much of 2024, approaching $5 at one point in 2025. However, this surge was followed by a sharp pullback that erased much of those previous gains, sending the price back to previous support zones where buyers have historically been active.

Analysis highlights the $0.55–$0.65 range as a strong support region for SUI. The first key resistance is identified at $1.90, with further resistance bands at $2.70–$3.10 and $4.40–$4.70. Should SUI break through these resistance zones, a new movement towards the $8–$9 range could take shape.

Another analyst, known as Winner, suggests that SUI currently trades in a buy zone between $0.80 and $1.00. In this view, the $3.00, $5.50, and $6.00 bands stand as resistance. If SUI can secure a decisive break above these levels, the debate could shift towards ambitious targets around $15–$17.

Structural changes on the Sui network stand out

Beyond price projections, technical and institutional developments on the Sui network are drawing attention. OGAudit Web3 Research describes Sui as evolving into a value network that not only offers high-speed blockchain infrastructure but also aims to merge artificial intelligence-driven financial activities with institutional adoption. Known for its object-based architecture, Sui is recognized as a Layer 1 network capable of processing transactions in parallel.

Glossary: Transaction finality refers to the minimum time required for a transfer to become irreversible. The 500-millisecond finality cited in the article indicates that transactions on the network can be completed extremely quickly.

According to research, by May 2026, the majority of transactions on the Sui network will be generated by autonomous artificial intelligence agents. The report notes that an extremely quick transaction finality of roughly 500 milliseconds has played a key role in supporting this surge. On the institutional side, the network continues to pursue expansion through Sui Dollar and Ethena synthetic assets.

Risks include network outages and token unlocks

Despite these optimistic forecasts, some risks remain. Analysts point to the potential for repeated network outages and the impact of token unlocks, which could increase selling pressure. The circulating supply currently stands at 4.02 billion tokens, with a market capitalization of $2.76 billion. In the coming period, the protection of critical support levels and the ability to surpass resistance bands will be decisive in shaping SUI’s direction.
