According to CryptoPotato, the Sui Foundation, the organization behind the development of Sui Network, has announced the launch of zkLogin, a Web3 authentication solution that allows end users to log in to decentralized applications (dApps) using their familiar social accounts. zkLogin will enable developers to let users authenticate themselves on their preferred dApps through their pre-existing accounts on platforms like Google, Facebook, Twitch, and various other third-party providers.

Upcoming developments include integrating similar options with Microsoft, Apple, WeChat, and Amazon. Sui's new network primitive is expected to provide users with privacy and ownership features offered by blockchain-based applications, a level of security and control not found in traditional web applications. Sui's zkLogin combines zk-SNARKs and JSON Web Tokens to allow users to prove their identity or the ownership of a wallet without disclosing the actual credentials necessary to access the account.

Sui Network is a low-cost blockchain that gained prominence largely due to its founding members comprising ex-Meta Platforms employees. Its native token, SUI, experienced a remarkable surge of 2,000% in value after its listing in May, following its presale. The distribution of SUI tokens is scheduled to take place over the course of the next seven years, with allocations for early contributors and investors planned to commence in April 2024, while SUI tokens held in the treasury for the creator of the Sui network, Mysten Labs, will be unlocked in 2025.
