SUI Token Drops Nearly 6% After Brief Spike as Stronger U.S. Dollar Pressures Crypto Market
SUI reversed gains from an overnight rally amid a broader crypto sell-off and rising U.S. Dollar Index.
Jul 28, 2025, 5:59 p.m.
What to know:
- SUI fell nearly 6% to $4.04 after a sharp overnight spike, as heavy trading volume gave way to intensified selling.
- The token broke below key support levels, with resistance now forming around $4.20 and signs of a double-bottom near $4.08.
- Broader market weakness and a stronger U.S. dollar added pressure, though SUI remains up 46% over the past month.
SUI, the native token of the Sui blockchain, is down nearly 6% over the past 24 hours, retreating to $4.04 after briefly jumping to $4.44 overnight. The move came on the back of a 32.37 million token volume spike, well above daily norms, before selling intensified and dragged prices lower, CoinDesk Analytics data shows.

Bulls initially held the line at $4.32, but bears seized momentum as SUI slipped through key technical levels. The token closed the session at $4.11, a 5.25% drop. CoinDesk Analytics shows resistance now forming between $4.20 and $4.24, while a double-bottom appears to be developing at $4.08 to $4.09.
Broader weakness in crypto markets may have added to the pressure. The CoinDesk 20 Index is down 1.4% over the past day. A nearly 1% rise in the U.S. Dollar Index today — often a headwind for risk assets like cryptocurrencies — coincided with the market-wide decline, including SUI’s slide.
Still, SUI is up 46% in the past month, outperforming the CD20’s 33% gain. That growth tracks rising interest in the Sui ecosystem, which saw total value locked surpass $2 billion earlier this month, according to DeFiLlama.
