Sui Token Debuts on Korea’s Top Five Crypto Exchanges
The native token of Sui, a layer 1 blockchain platform, has debuted on South Korea’s five leading cryptocurrency exchanges — Upbit, Bithumb, Coinone, Korbit, and Gopax. This marks the first time a token has been listed simultaneously on all five exchanges, according to Korean news agency Newsis.

Aptos’ success
The decision by these exchanges to list Sui may have been influenced by the success of the APT token, which belongs to Aptos, another scalable layer 1 blockchain platform also developed by former Meta employees. APT was listed on Binance two days after the launch of the Aptos’ mainnet on October 17 last year, and its price skyrocketed to $100 on the first day, a hundred times its listing price. Within a week, the trading volume of APT reached $1.3 billion.
Sui’s mainnet launch
With the launch of its mainnet on May 3, Sui is garnering significant interest in the crypto sphere. An official from a notable Korean venture capital firm told Newsis that Sui and Aptos, both developed with the Move programming language, involve many top-tier investors and are highly anticipated by ecosystem participants.
