Grayscale’s Sui staking ETF debuts with institutional backing
This product emerged from Grayscale’s amended SEC filings, where the firm outlined plans to convert its existing Sui Trust into a fully regulated exchange-listed ETF that holds SUI tokens directly and reflects their market value.
The trust was originally formed as a Delaware Statutory Trust and now transitions into an ETF structure while retaining its focus on the Sui ecosystem.
The ETF is designed to track the price of SUI while also capturing any staking rewards that may be earned through eligible staking activities on the Sui blockchain. The structure aims to reduce the challenges of direct token custody by using institutional custodians and service providers.
Technical signals show weak momentum despite stabilization
Despite the positive headline, SUI’s price action remains cautious. On the daily chart, SUI is trading near $0.97 after a prolonged pullback from early January highs near $1.90. The broader structure shows a clear downtrend, with lower highs and lower lows dominating over the past six weeks.
SUI price analysis | Source: Crypto.NewsThe 50-day simple moving average sits at approximately $1.39 and continues to slope downward. Price remains well below this level, confirming that bearish momentum has not fully reversed.
Any sustained recovery would first need to reclaim the psychological $1.00 level and then break above $1.05, which has acted as short-term resistance during the recent consolidation.
On the downside, immediate support rests near $0.90. Below that, the early February swing low around $0.85 is the key level to watch. A break under $0.85 would likely open the door to deeper losses.
The Chaikin Money Flow indicator is currently around -0.02. This reflects slightly negative capital flows but shows improvement from the sharp outflows seen earlier this month. The gradual move toward the zero line suggests selling pressure is easing, though not yet replaced by strong accumulation.
If ETF-driven optimism attracts fresh inflows, SUI could attempt a move toward $1.20 in the coming weeks. However, confirmation requires stronger volume and a decisive break above short-term resistance.
