Grayscale Sui Staking ETF (GSUI) Launches on NYSE Arca

Main Takeaways

• Grayscale’s Sui Staking ETF (GSUI) is now live as a U.S.-listed exchange-traded product tied to SUI, with staking reflected in the fund’s net asset value.
• Investors can gain exposure to SUI, including potential staking returns, directly through traditional brokerages, without needing a crypto wallet or exchange account.
• Grayscale's GSUI marks its fourth Sui-focused investment vehicle, reflecting sustained institutional conviction in Sui as a foundational blockchain for real-world financial applications.

Overview

Sui’s institutional momentum continues with the launch of the Grayscale Sui Staking ETF (GSUI), a U.S.-based exchange-traded fund (ETF) providing direct exposure to SUI, the native token of the Sui network. Staking rewards will be reflected in the ETF’s net asset value, offering investors an additional source of return beyond price appreciation. As Grayscale expands its lineup of regulated crypto products, GSUI reaffirms Sui as a core pillar of its business strategy.

The product marks Grayscale’s fourth Sui-focused vehicle after previously launching investment trusts backed by SUI, WAL (the native token of the decentralized data layer Walrus), and DEEP (Sui’s powerful, decentralized central limit order book, DeepBook). After establishing itself as an early supporter of the Sui Stack, a suite of leading primitives built on Sui that include Walrus, DeepBook, Nautilus, Seal, and others, today’s ETF launch is the latest signal of strong institutional interest in next-generation blockchains like Sui, with GSUI providing compliant, cost-efficient access to the network through a familiar investment structure.

“This milestone further cements Sui’s growing role in the institutional adoption of digital assets, as Sui is backed with both the infrastructure required to support real-world applications at scale and the trust of leading financial partners,” said Adeniyi Abiodun, Chief Product Officer and Co-Founder at Mysten Labs, the original contributors to Sui. “GSUI provides traditional investors with a streamlined way to access the SUI token and participate in its network activity through a familiar exchange-traded structure.”

A New Era of Access for Investors

GSUI brings together Grayscale’s legacy in crypto asset management with Sui’s breakthrough technology. Developed by Mysten Labs, founded by the core team behind Meta’s Diem and Novi initiatives, Sui’s object-centric architecture and parallel transaction processing deliver industry-defining speed, scalability, and reliability, making it uniquely suited for building real-world financial applications.

Sui provides a frictionless user experience that simplifies the onboarding process for new users through intuitive login flows that mirror familiar legacy applications while maintaining the benefits of being on blockchain rails. These features are helping developers launch apps across sectors such as payments, tokenization, AI, and DeFi, with lower barriers to entry and faster time-to-market.

Institutional Confidence

“GSUI’s launch on NYSE Arca marks an important milestone in expanding the range of exchange-traded products tied to the Sui ecosystem, including exposure to potential staking rewards,” said Krista Lynch, Senior Vice President, ETF Capital Markets, at Grayscale. “GSUI is structured to provide investors with exposure to SUI and its staking activity through an ETP, offering a convenient way to gain exposure to a network designed for scalable, real-world applications, and the next generation of digital experiences.”
