AMINA Bank Launches Institutional SUI Trading and Custody
AMINA Bank AG, a FINMA-regulated Swiss bank in Zug, has become the first regulated institution to offer institutional SUI trading and custody services. The platform provides compliant, no-volume-cap SUI trading, full deposit and withdrawal governance, and is set to launch staking in the coming months. SUI trading is live at $3.46 amid $1.35 billion 24-hour volume and 1.4% volatility, underlining growing market activity.
This move coincides with rising institutional conviction in the Sui blockchain. Total value locked has topped $2.2 billion, and ETF filings by Canary Capital, 21Shares and Bitwise are under SEC and Nasdaq review. Nasdaq-listed Mill City Ventures committed $450 million to a public SUI treasury, acquiring 76.8 million SUI at an average price of $3.64, backed by Pantera, Electric Capital and Galaxy Digital. As a fast, scalable Layer-1 solution, SUI trading and custody services reinforce the token’s appeal for enterprise settlement and broader market adoption.
Bullish
This news is bullish for SUI. The launch of regulated institutional SUI trading and custody by AMINA Bank reduces barriers for large capital inflows, enhances compliance, and signals stronger market infrastructure. High trading volume, low volatility and upcoming staking services further support short-term price momentum. Additionally, Mill City Ventures’ $450 million public SUI treasury and ETF filings by major asset managers demonstrate deepening institutional conviction. Over the long term, robust on-chain metrics—$2.2 billion TVL, increasing developer activity—and integration into regulated banking and potential ETFs position SUI for sustained adoption. Combined, these factors point to continued demand, tighter liquidity and upward price pressure.
