[PRESS RELEASE – New York, New York, February 24th, 2026]
U.S. spot ETF significantly expands regulated investor access to the Sui ecosystem in the world’s largest capital market
The Sui Foundation today announced that trading has officially commenced on the Nasdaq for TSUI, a spot SUI ETF issued by 21shares, a global leader in crypto exchange-traded products. The fund provides U.S. investors with a regulated, high-liquidity vehicle to gain direct exposure to Sui’s performance through their existing brokerage accounts following recent SEC approval.
The launch marks another major milestone in Sui’s continued growth as a payments platform and modern global finance layer. Sui is the full stack for a new global economy, founded by the tech leaders who spearheaded Meta’s Diem and Libra initiatives, and is advancing a vision of moving money as freely as messages. 21shares has long been at the forefront of bringing digital asset exposure into traditional financial markets, offering a broad suite of regulated crypto ETPs across Europe and beyond. Its expansion into a U.S. spot SUI ETF reflects accelerating institutional confidence in Sui’s infrastructure and ecosystem.
Spot ETFs provide exposure directly tied to the underlying SUI token, offering a straightforward structure for both institutional and retail investors seeking secure and compliant access to emerging blockchain ecosystems.
Sui’s traction with institutions is rooted in its unique technical design. Built using the Move programming language, Sui’s object-centric model enables parallel execution, sub-second finality, and horizontally scalable throughput. This architecture supports payments, tokenization, stablecoins, BTCfi, and decentralized finance at internet scale, eliminating many of the frictions found on earlier blockchains.
“TSUI marks yet another widely-available access point to Sui, leveraging the industry’s preeminent tech stack to support global payments use cases and financial applications at scale,” said Evan Cheng, Co-Founder and CEO of Mysten Labs, the original contributor to Sui. “In a little more than two years, Sui has made significant inroads into payments and cross-border settlement, which has transformed it into one of the world’s most robust onchain economies and attracted the interest of leading institutions like 21shares as a result.”
The ETF approval arrives amid surging institutional interest in Sui, joining a growing list of institutional-grade products or planned initiatives, including from Bitwise, Canary Capital, Franklin Templeton, Grayscale, and VanEck. In December 2025, 21shares also launched the first leveraged ETFin the U.S. tied to SUI. The introduction of TSUI expands access further through a straightforward, spot-based structure.
“Following our successful launch of a leveraged SUI product, the introduction of TSUI represents the next step in expanding access to Sui through a straightforward, spot-based structure,” said Duncan Moir, President of 21shares. “Sui’s rapid ecosystem growth, technical strength, and institutional relevance were clear to us early on. We are pleased to provide U.S. investors with transparent tools to access this next-generation blockchain.”
As institutional capital continues to enter digital assets and stablecoins gain traction as a global payments layer, Sui’s scalable, low-latency infrastructure is designed to meet the demands of modern finance. To learn more about Sui and explore the ecosystem, visit https://sui.io.
