- Sui traded around $2.67 on Tuesday as the token slipped amid a broadly weaker market.
- The Sui team and Figure Technology Solutions are partnering to boost on-chain liquidity, with plans to integrate SUI as possible collateral in lending protocols.
- YLDS will power DeepBook’s separate stablecoin lending pools, optimizing yields for margin trading and native exchange use.
Sui’s price plunged amid last week’s market-wide downturn, falling to a low near $2.67.
But can overall confidence recover and turn bullish as the Sui blockchain welcomes YLDS — an SEC-registered, yield-bearing security token designed to connect traditional finance with on-chain innovation — and potentially support the altcoin’s value?
Sui Partners with Figure Technology Solutions
Investors have welcomed the strategic partnership between Sui and Figure Technology Solutions, which aims to bring compliant, high-throughput financial infrastructure to the Sui network.
YLDS, Figure’s SEC-registered, yield-bearing stablecoin, will be issued natively on Sui.

This collaboration underscores Sui’s commitment to fostering compliant financial infrastructure and the potential for stablecoin adoption on its chain.
By deploying YLDS on Sui, Figure aims to reduce intermediaries and increase efficiency in capital markets.
“Issuing YLDS on Sui marks the beginning of a broader effort to deploy SEC-registered, yield-bearing security tokens across multiple blockchain networks,” said Mike Cagney, co‑founder and CEO of Figure. “We’re proud to take this first step with Sui to remove traditional intermediaries, level the playing field, and democratize institutional-grade financial products.”
For Sui, the partnership with Figure accelerates its positioning within the real-world assets (RWA) and DeFi landscape in the United States.
Evan Cheng, co‑founder and CEO of Mysten Labs, emphasized the network impact: “Bringing YLDS to Sui is a major upgrade for regulated DeFi, enabling institutions to access compliant, dynamic assets with the speed and security only Sui can provide. Integrating a regulated yield-bearing security token with seamless composability further reinforces Sui as a leading platform for on‑boarding real‑world assets and institutional financial infrastructure.”
Yield and Regulated DeFi on Sui
YLDS redefines stablecoin utility by embedding yield directly into a regulatory-compliant framework.
That distinguishes it from traditional stablecoins, which typically do not carry built-in yield.
YLDS functions as a dynamic debt security that tokenizes real-world instruments to enable on-chain composability.
DeepBook’s upcoming margin trading system will incorporate separate stablecoin lending pools.
Fees from trading, lending, and settlement are expected to compound returns, optimizing capital efficiency for native exchange flows and other use cases.
Sui Price Outlook
YLDS will provide native on‑ and off‑ramps for USD on Sui, allowing users to transact without relying on centralized exchanges and reducing counterparty risk.
For developers, the integration opens opportunities to build yield-optimized protocols and products.
Broader adoption could help drive network effects across the ecosystem, potentially benefiting the native SUI token.
Key technical price levels to watch for SUI are roughly $3.75 on the upside and $2.50 on the downside.
The altcoin reached a peak near $4.00 in mid‑September.
