Robinhood Lists SUI for U.S. and EU Traders as Token Slides on Heavy Volume

Fresh supply from a $171 million unlock collides with elevated derivatives interest, keeping sentiment cautious.

Overview

  • Robinhood confirmed SUI spot trading for users in the United States and Europe, with platform liquidity supported via Bitstamp.
  • An official Sui blog post revealing the listing went live early and was removed, a leak that preceded sharp intraday swings.
  • SUI traded near $3.5 with more than $1.4 billion in daily volume, extending a multi-day decline alongside broader market weakness.
  • A roughly $171 million token unlock on Aug. 19 increased circulating supply by about 5%, raising near-term sell-pressure risks.
  • Derivatives open interest hovered around $1.9 billion and technical signals were mixed, leaving traders positioned for potential volatility.
