The bears, though, quickly stepped in and trimmed part of the gains, bringing the price back to around $1.27 \u2013 still an impressive 35% jump on the week. SUI\u2019s market capitalization surged past the $5 billion milestone, making it the 23rd-biggest cryptocurrency.<\/p>\n<p>The main catalyst behind the upswing seems to be Sui Group Holdings\u2019 decision to <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/suintern_\/status\/2053745662588547089\" target=\"_blank\">stake<\/a> 108.7 million SUI tokens (worth over $140 million), thus removing almost 3% of the coin\u2019s circulating supply from the market.<\/p>\n<p>The analytics platform Santiment Intelligence <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/SantimentData\/status\/2053791474525888679\" target=\"_blank\">added<\/a> two more factors that could have also positively impacted the valuation. The first is the upcoming launch of CME Group SUI futures (scheduled for May 29) and the partnership with Paga, which focuses on cross-border African payments.<\/p>\n<p>Paga is a leading settlement platform that allows millions of people to send, receive, and manage money across Africa. The collaboration with Sui <a href=\"https:\/\/paga.blog\/2026\/05\/08\/paga-partners-with-sui-to-bring-sui-dollar-to-africa\/\" target=\"_blank\">aims<\/a> to bring the Sui Dollar (USDsui) to the continent, giving users access to faster, cheaper, and more reliable digital payments.<\/p>\n<p>Numerous analysts believe the asset\u2019s valuation may reach new peaks soon. X user OxNeena <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/hami8040\/status\/2053718874827510126\" target=\"_blank\">noted<\/a> the \u201cmassive breakout attempt\u201d on the daily chart, envisioning an explosion above $2.50 should the price make a \u201cclean flip\u201d of the $1.30 zone.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"you-may-also-like\" class=\"heading-4\">You may also like:<\/h3>\n<p>For their part, CoinForge said they dismiss 98% of altcoins, but SUI isn\u2019t among those. They <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Realcoinforge\/status\/2053792239441068526\" target=\"_blank\">argued<\/a> that the asset\u2019s price trajectory repeats the pattern seen last cycle, suggesting it could be gearing up for a major bull run in the coming months.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"the-pre-correction-signs\">The Pre-Correction Signs<\/h2>\n<p>Contrary to the prevailing optimism among market observers, SUI\u2019s Relative Strength Index (RSI) suggests a pullback may be the next move in the short term. The technical analysis tool measures the speed and magnitude of recent price changes and is used by traders to spot potential price reversal points.<\/p>\n<p>It ranges from 0 to 100, where anything above 70 signals that the valuation has risen too much in a short period, which could be a precursor to a cool-off. Conversely, ratios below 30 hint that the asset is oversold and could be on the verge of a pump. Currently, SUI\u2019s RSI stands at nearly 75.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1436765\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1436765\" style=\"width: 2216px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/SUI-RSI.png\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1436765\" src=\"https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/a8b2e65f-45de-41e3-5851-95e3d229f700\/w=9999\" alt=\"SUI RSI\" width=\"2216\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/a8b2e65f-45de-41e3-5851-95e3d229f700\/w=1097 1097w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/a8b2e65f-45de-41e3-5851-95e3d229f700\/w=300,h=54 300w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/a8b2e65f-45de-41e3-5851-95e3d229f700\/w=1024,h=185 1024w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/a8b2e65f-45de-41e3-5851-95e3d229f700\/w=768,h=139 768w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/a8b2e65f-45de-41e3-5851-95e3d229f700\/w=90,h=16 90w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/a8b2e65f-45de-41e3-5851-95e3d229f700\/w=150,h=27 150w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/a8b2e65f-45de-41e3-5851-95e3d229f700\/w=1000,h=180 1000w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/a8b2e65f-45de-41e3-5851-95e3d229f700\/w=900,h=162 900w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/a8b2e65f-45de-41e3-5851-95e3d229f700\/w=800,h=144 800w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/a8b2e65f-45de-41e3-5851-95e3d229f700\/w=700,h=126 700w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/a8b2e65f-45de-41e3-5851-95e3d229f700\/w=600,h=108 600w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/a8b2e65f-45de-41e3-5851-95e3d229f700\/w=500,h=90 500w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/a8b2e65f-45de-41e3-5851-95e3d229f700\/w=400,h=72 400w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/a8b2e65f-45de-41e3-5851-95e3d229f700\/w=200,h=36 200w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/a8b2e65f-45de-41e3-5851-95e3d229f700\/w=100,h=18 100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2216px) 100vw, 2216px\"\/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1436765\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">SUI RSI, Source: CryptoWaves<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>In the meantime, exchange inflows have outpaced outflows over the past few days, indicating that investors have abandoned self-custody in favor of centralized platforms.
