VanEck has announced the launch of a new ETN related to the SUI blockchain on European exchanges, providing investors the opportunity to engage with the blockchain without directly acquiring tokens.
Launch of SUI ETN in Europe
Asset management firm VanEck has announced the listing of its SUI ETN on Euronext in Amsterdam and Paris. This new instrument allows European investors to gain exposure to the SUI blockchain without directly purchasing tokens. The ETN will be available in countries such as Germany, France, and Sweden.
Popularity of SUI Blockchain
The SUI blockchain is designed for rapid transaction processing, addressing a significant challenge faced by earlier blockchains like Bitcoin and Ethereum, where transactions are processed sequentially, often leading to delays and higher costs. SUI's structure enables simultaneous processing, making it ideal for applications demanding fast, real-time interactions, such as decentralized finance platforms and gaming applications.
SUI's Technology and Development Team
According to Martijn Rozemuller, CEO of VanEck Europe, SUI could significantly impact decentralized finance, where fast transaction times are crucial. He describes SUI as a “bridge” between traditional online systems and the evolving decentralized Web3, emphasizing its user-friendly design. The SUI blockchain was developed by Mysten Labs, founded by former developers from Microsoft, Apple, and Meta. The team uses a version of the Move programming language, initially created for Meta’s Diem project, which enhances SUI's capabilities and supports its scalability and ease of use.
The launch of SUI ETN by VanEck on European exchanges opens up new opportunities for investors to access a high-speed blockchain, corresponding to the needs of the time in decentralized finance and gaming, potentially transforming how traditional and new financial systems interact.
