We are not slowing down. Today, confidential transfer is going live on Sui Devnet.
Sui is not your grandpa's blockchain. It's a coordination layer, settlement layer, a programmable platform where all the tools you need to create/exchange/manage assets of value. Confidential transfers is the latest building block added to the stack. A lot more to come.
Confidential transfers are live in public beta on Sui Devnet.
Transfer amounts and balances are private, with controlled visibility for compliance and auditability.
What this means for finance workflows: 🧵
Bear markets separate the teams who build from the teams who tweet. We chose building. Heads down, every day, on infrastructure most people won't appreciate until the moment they suddenly need it.
That moment is coming faster than the market thinks.
$SUI alpha: Team out of Hong Kong are releasing a tokenized equity app on @SuiNetwork - focus on stocks from Japan, S Korea and HK not available on tradfi in the US but now accessible via SUI. Ill have the scoop on release.
Trade Asian stocks on chain.
Solana Foundation has announced native subscriptions and allowances on #Solana mainnet, enabling recurring billing and delegated spending for agent budgets, payroll, subscriptions, API billing and stablecoin invoices.
✨ 2 very unique Mysten / Sui papers made it at the prestigious Science of Blockchain Conference (SBC 2026) this year, jointly coauthored with Stanford, IBM, and a16z:
“Partial Fraction Techniques for Cryptography” https://t.co/hLXCcUf7mw, also presented at EuroCrypt ‘26. In the paper we developed key-value commitment schemes using the familiar product linearization property of fractions and dynamic threshold encryption using a novel linear independence of products property.
“Efficient Batch Threshold Encryption using Partial Fraction Techniques” https://t.co/jMlKQkx0RF, will also appear at CRYPTO ‘26. Our updated paper gets inspiration from, as well as outperforms many state-of-the-art solutions in this frenzied research topic.
Mysten Labs, Sui & Walrus continue to be an amazing place where abstract ideas turn into powerful tools
Public blockchains reward transparency
AI agents do not
Agents managing capital, data, and execution at machine speed do not fit permanently public systems
That's where SEAL and @WalrusProtocol step in:
> Client-side encryption
> Onchain access policies
> Decentralized key servers
> Secrets management at scale
Data stays encrypted
Access becomes programmable
That fits AI far better than fully public or fully opaque systems
Walrus also solves one of the biggest problems LLMs face: Memory
Imagine ChatGPT or Claude not having recall issues when you are trying to utilize it for work or personal
Imagine if all your agentic chat history was stored on Walrus immutably and securely
Memory is both data and experience for LLMs and values accrues as memory builds
Of course, @kostascrypto is on top of this and I am sure @GDanezis and @RJ_Simmonds are too
We're live.
Following last week's outages related to the 1.72 release, join @EmanAbio and @b1ackd0g as they walk through what happened and the steps taken to restore the network.
@technicaldebtor from the Sui Core Team is also joining to add technical context.

I deleted my previous post to avoid it come across as FUD
Piling on Sui during a tough moment was not my intention
That said I’d like to invite @EmanAbio and @EvanWeb3 to join me, @0xd34th and @eyezenhour at Sui Roundtable on Tuesday to discuss where Sui stands and what’s next
Following last week’s outages related to the 1.72 release, the Sui Core Team has completed an investigation and incident review, detailing what happened and the steps taken by validators to restart the network.
Sui mainnet is back online and transactions are flowing normally.
The end of epoch halt was triggered during the rollout of yesterday's long-term fix. As validators restarted to deploy the new binary, the randomness initialization that runs at the start of each epoch was unable to complete because it has a higher quorum threshold than Sui consensus. A latent bug in how that failure state is preserved across validator restarts then prevented the network from completing its transition to the next epoch.
Validators have implemented a fix that addresses both the underlying bug and the affected epoch, and network activity has resumed.
A more detailed incident review is forthcoming.
Sui mainnet stopped accepting user transactions due to an issue during the epoch change beginning at ~1:30PT. Validators are up and creating system transactions, but user transactions are not currently being accepted. The Sui Core Team is investigating, and updates will be shared as soon as available.
Activity on Sui mainnet has resumed, and transactions are flowing normally.
Both today’s and yesterday’s halts are due to the interaction of the 1.72 release, which introduced Address Balances, and gas charging logic. Yesterday’s implemented fix was an interim measure designed to restore functionality to the network while the Sui Core Team worked on a long-term solution.
The interim fix had a known issue with a low probability of causing a halt. This morning, the network hit a variant of the known issue and halted.
As of now, the long-term solution has been implemented by validators, fully addressing known issues caused by the original bug, and network activity has resumed.
A more detailed incident review is forthcoming. Thank you for your patience.
Activity on Sui mainnet has resumed after a halt due to a crash bug in the gas charging logic introduced by the 1.72 release. A full incident review will be shared in the coming days.
