TLDR
- Sui users can now move supported stablecoins without holding SUI tokens for network gas payments.
- Fireblocks support brings institutional access to Sui’s zero-gas stablecoin transfer system on Mainnet from launch.
- Seven stablecoins are listed at launch, including USDC, USDY, AUSD, FDUSD, and USDsui for transfers.
- The feature removes gas pre-funding, which can reduce friction for payment builders and users alike.
- Sui says stablecoin transfer volume has passed $1 trillion since the network’s August 2025 launch.
Sui has launched zero-gas stablecoin transfers on Mainnet, with Fireblocks supporting the rollout. The update lets users send supported stablecoins without holding SUI for gas.
The launch focuses on digital dollar payments for wallets, businesses, payment apps, and automated agents. It also adds a protocol-level route for stablecoin transfers with no user-paid network fee.
Sui Removes Gas From Stablecoin Transfers
For many users, gas tokens add a basic barrier to onchain payments. A person may hold stablecoins but still need another asset to move them. Sui’s new system removes that step for supported stablecoin transfers.
The feature applies to single and batch peer-to-peer stablecoin transfers on Sui Mainnet. It is not described as a subsidy or a temporary campaign. Instead, Sui presents it as a network-level change for payment transfers.
The supported list includes USDsui, SuiUSDe, AUSD, FDUSD, USDB, USDC, and USDY. These assets can move without users holding or spending SUI for gas. The rollout is gradual as validation nodes adopt the feature across Mainnet.
Fireblocks Supports Sui Stablecoin Payment Rails
Fireblocks is among the first institutional platforms supporting the launch. The company provides digital asset infrastructure for enterprises and payment firms. Its support gives payment builders a direct path to Sui stablecoin rails.
Fireblocks says its platform has secured over $14 trillion in digital asset transactions. That record makes its role useful for enterprises reviewing stablecoin payment tools. It also supports custody and payments for companies handling regulated digital assets.
Adeniyi Abiodun, Co-Founder and CPO of Mysten Labs, linked the update to easier payment access. “Stablecoins are becoming a core part of global finance, but the infrastructure around them still creates unnecessary complexity,” he said. He added that payments should feel simple, predictable, and accessible for onchain dollar users.
Ran Goldi, SVP Payments and Network at Fireblocks, also addressed enterprise payment needs. “The future of payments will run on stablecoin rails, but the experience for institutions still needs to catch up,” he said. He said gasless transfers remove a major friction point for onchain payment flows.
Sui Builds Its Stablecoin Payment Network
Sui said its stablecoin transfer volume has crossed $1 trillion since August 2025. That figure places the launch within a wider push into stablecoin payments. The network is also building around tokenized assets and business finance tools.
The update uses Address Balances, a new account-style balance system on Sui Mainnet. This system aims to make value easier to store and move onchain. It also keeps the network focused on speed and predictable costs.
Market activity also followed the Mainnet launch. SUI rose about 8% in 24 hours, while the broader crypto market gained less. The move came as traders watched support near $1.00 and the network’s payments narrative.
Sui also cited new exchange-traded products launched globally in 2026. These products came from firms including 21Shares, Grayscale, and Canary Capital. Together with Fireblocks support, they expand access to Sui for payment and market users.
