SUI has reached a delicate point in its current phase. Over 60% of circulating tokens are still locked, and subsequent releases could create pressure; at the same time, some have raised concerns about centralization in certain infrastructure within the ecosystem. However, these worries seem to be unable to stop the flow of smart money—recently, SUI ecosystem development has noticeably accelerated.

DeepBook, as the core liquidity support, demonstrates market attractiveness through its daily clearing volume. Interestingly, discussions around the SUI ETF application are growing louder; once approved, institutional investment entering the market could be a high-probability event.

The current market presents an intriguing contrast: retail investors are still panicking, while large investors continue to accumulate. Many see this divergence as a sign of a deep shakeout. For investors optimistic about long-term value, deploying capital during the lowest emotional point might be the last chance before SUI enters its next growth cycle.

From a technical perspective, the price is trading around 1.815, with support at 1.8016 (which can serve as a reference for buying the dip), and the support zone is between 1.756-1.8018. Resistance is at 1.8566, with medium-term resistance between 1.8252-1.8566. When approaching support levels, consider long positions; if the support is broken, stop-loss promptly.

Once again, the same rhetoric: big players accumulating, retail investors panicking, washout signals... how many times have I heard this🙃 Locking 60% of the position? Will the unlock later just cause a dump? Can we trust DeepBook data? I have no idea how accurate it is. ETF approval is a good thing, no doubt, but saying that institutions are likely to enter now... isn't that just encouraging people to bet? Still, as I said, the technical support levels are just unbelievable.

The locking pressure is indeed a trap, but I believe big players are bottom-fishing. Once the ETF shoe drops, retail investors will regret not getting on board.

Smart money is buying in, retail investors are running out. I've seen this script too many times. It should be a buy at 1.8, or you'll regret it again.

Smart money is absorbing, retail investors are selling, it looks like this shakeout is really coming --- The lock-up issue is indeed concerning, but the attraction of institutional funds is even more worrying --- Around 1.8, it’s time to make a decisive move. Missing this wave and you'll regret it no matter what --- DeepBook data doesn’t lie; the ecosystem’s heat is right there --- Once the ETF is approved, the current price looks cheap no matter how you see it --- Centralization concerns? Major players are already bottom-fishing, why are you still hesitating about this --- If it drops below 1.756, just leave. Don’t give yourself a chance to suffer

Smart money is accumulating, retail investors are cutting losses. This round of shakeout is quite intense. The big players are all lurking; around 1.8 is the bottom-fishing zone. If it drops a bit more, the harvesting machine will start. The acceleration of the SUI ecosystem is definitely visible, but the real question is when will that 60% of locked positions be released—it's a bit uncertain. Once the ETF passes, it will explode. By then, it will be too late to regret. Those who are entering now are tough players, waiting for the next surge.

The locking pressure is indeed incredible. Retail investors are scared, which is just the right opportunity for the big players to accumulate. --- DeepBook liquidity has been supported, and that's the real highlight. Don't always focus on technical lines. --- Once the ETF passes, institutional investors will follow suit, and it will be bullish. --- As long as it holds at 1.8, it's fine. Breaking below that is the real trouble. --- Who still cares about concerns over centralization? Everyone just wants to make quick money. --- People who are positioning now will be the happiest in half a year, including me. --- With such a strong liquidation scale, it shows the ecosystem is still alive. --- Signal of a shakeout? I think it's just a timetable for cutting leeks. --- If the support level is broken, cut losses decisively. Don't think about bottom-fishing and ending up with nothing. --- Smart money has already entered. Can retail investors still make money now? Uh... just gamble. --- Lock-in at 60%, then release... this is a ticking time bomb. --- Is around 1.8016 really a good buy-in point? If you believe it, you deserve to be trapped. --- Ecosystem acceleration sounds high-end, but in reality, it's still those projects spinning in circles. --- Institutional funds are needed for the price to move. No matter how loud the hype, it's all talk.
