Whale's $20M SUI Position in Jeopardy

A whale's $20M position in SUI is at risk of liquidation if the asset drops to $4.56. This situation may impact the market and price movements of other cryptocurrencies.

Whale's SUI Position Under Threat

A whale's leveraged position on SUI is at risk of liquidation if the asset's price falls to $4.56. The whale has already received a warning for exceeding the borrowing limit and approaching the liquidation threshold. The position was established when the whale deposited sSUI and SUI in separate pools to borrow USDC and wUSDT. As of January 8, SUI hovered around $4.60, with occasional dips. The crypto market remained in a sideways trend as Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) slid in price.

Impact of DeFi Lending on SUI

Despite the $20M position being at risk of liquidation, SUILend remains a key part of the SUI ecosystem. The chain's ability to handle such large loans shows the development of its DeFi liquidity. At the start of the year, more than $1.91B in total value was locked, allowing DeFi users to expand loans and move into stablecoin positions.

Prospects for Further SUI Expansion

SUI has shown rapid growth, but currently trades at a lower range compared to early year levels. The predictions of new peaks encounter resistance, despite forecasts from figures like WallStreetBets founder Jaime Rogozinski. In January, a new token, SUI AI Agents (SUIAI), also emerged, allowing for AI model deployment and featuring DeFi elements.

SUI's position in the crypto market remains unstable due to potential liquidation of large positions. However, the expansion of DeFi and new products like SUIAI may help reinforce the chain and promote its further growth.
