According to David Zimmerman, a DeFi analyst at research firm K33 Research, Sui (SUI) is rapidly advancing towards becoming a strong competitor to Solana (SOL). Zimmerman claimed that Sui’s architecture and upcoming game console could make it stand out among alternative Layer-1 solutions. Although Solana has recently managed to attract attention in the Layer-1 war, there has only been a 6 percent increase in the SOL/ETH transaction pair since August. In contrast, the SUI/SOL transaction pair has increased by 115 percent in the same period.
The Rise and Future of Sui
Zimmerman noted that Sui’s recent outperformance may have been largely due to “mispricing,” but the analyst also emphasized that Sui has the right factors supporting its price rally.
As a matter of fact, Sui's remarkable gain in value against Solana in such a short time has attracted the attention of investors to the altcoin.
One of the most important factors that increase Sui’s competitiveness against Solana is its technical architecture and upcoming product launches. Especially when the game console is launched, Sui is expected to further develop and expand its user experience and ecosystem. This could make Sui a more attractive option for investors.
Main Differences Between Solana and Sui
Solana has long held an important position among Layer-1 projects. It draws attention with its high transaction speed and low transaction costs. However, Sui is not limited to transaction speed and low transaction costs, and aims to offer innovative solutions in its ecosystem. Sui's focus on different areas such as the gaming industry proves that it can compete in areas where Solana is strong over time.
With current data, SUI coin is trading at $1.38 with a 15.54 percent increase in the last 24 hours, while SOL coin is trading at $138.05 with a 5.38 percent increase in the same time period.
