SUI is attempting a recovery from months of heavy selling pressure, with the token trading near $0.69 after finding support at $0.65. The immediate challenge lies in the $0.72 – $0.75 resistance zone, marked by a descending trendline. A decisive breakout above this area could put the $0.83 target in focus — roughly a 20% upside from current levels — with some analysts eyeing $0.85 as well.
Despite weak momentum indicators (RSI at 44, CMF at -0.09), bullish MACD divergence is emerging across daily, three-day, and weekly timeframes. Crypto analyst Michaël van de Poppe noted this pattern signals weakening selling pressure. However, low trading volume still raises caution, and a drop below $0.60 could invalidate the recovery setup, exposing support near $0.40–$0.50.
Adding to the long-term narrative, Sui is advancing its quantum-resistant infrastructure. The network confirmed plans to integrate two NIST-approved signature schemes: one for regular user accounts and everyday transactions, and another for high-value Move-based vaults. Quantum-safe vaults are expected to reach mainnet later in 2026, with native quantum-safe accounts following in 2027. The Sui Foundation also increased buyback activity, purchasing 9,000 SUI on August 8 — its second-largest single-day buyback, according to analyst ToreroRomero. These developments are strengthening the project’s security and institutional appeal.
