What is it?

The Sui network is an under-development Layer-1 blockchain network designed for decentralized applications (dApps) by offering high transaction throughput, security and scalability.

Why

The Sui network aims to overcome the limitations of existing blockchain networks such as slow transaction speeds and scalability issues. It aims to provide a platform for dApps that is fast, secure and focuses on usability and developer experience.

How (How)

The Sui network uses several technical features to achieve its goals:

  • Proof-of-Stake (PoS): Ensures network security and efficiency by delegating coins instead of mining.

  • Object Capacity Model: Increases security and flexibility by granting users precise controlled access to their digital assets.

  • Transaction Parallelization: Increases transaction throughput by allowing transactions to be processed simultaneously.

  • Light Clients: Enables active participation in the network without downloading the entire blockchain.
