Sui has announced the launch of gasless stablecoin transfers — a new protocol-level feature that enables users and businesses to send supported stablecoins on Sui without paying gas fees or managing a separate SUI token balance. With the feature now rolling out to validators, stablecoin transfer fees on the Sui network are $0.00.
Supported stablecoins at launch include USDsui, suiUSDe, AUSD, FDUSD, USDB, USDC, and USDY. The feature is designed to simplify payment workflows and eliminate one of the most persistent friction points in stablecoin mass adoption: the requirement to hold a separate token just to complete a transaction.
Fireblocks — the enterprise platform securing more than $14 trillion in digital asset transactions — has integrated the new solution ahead of its rollout as part of Sui’s broader expansion of its payments ecosystem. A range of institutional custodians and retail-facing wallets will also support gasless transactions at launch, enabling users to send select stablecoins without ever touching SUI for transaction fees.
“Stablecoins are becoming a core part of global finance, but the infrastructure around them still creates unnecessary complexity,” said Adeniyi Abiodun, Co-Founder and CPO of Mysten Labs, the original contributor to Sui. “From the start, we’ve said it should not cost individuals fees to move their own money. With gasless stablecoin transfers, we are one step closer to making Sui the global rail for payments, whether they are for businesses, AI agents, and consumers.”
 
Fireblocks’ integration strengthens the institutional accessibility of Sui’s payments infrastructure, giving enterprises and financial service providers a trusted, secure pathway to manage stablecoin activity on the network through established digital asset infrastructure.
“The future of payments will run on stablecoin rails, but the experience for institutions still needs to catch up,” said Ran Goldi, SVP Payments & Network at Fireblocks. “Sui is making all the right moves, with gasless stablecoin transfers that removes a major point of friction for enterprises building onchain payment flows and customer experiences.”
Gasless stablecoin transfers represent a structural change to how single and batched peer-to-peer transfers operate on Sui Mainnet — not a subsidy, sponsorship program, or temporary promotion. The economics are permanent by design.
In a market where margins are everything, the launch positions Sui as the default stablecoin infrastructure for three distinct audiences: businesses looking to cut complexity and overhead costs, traders tired of failed transactions and fee friction, and AI agents — which will objectively route to the cheapest, most frictionless path available for autonomous payments.
The Numbers Behind the Network
Since August 2025, Sui has surpassed $1 trillion in stablecoin transfer volume, while its stablecoin ecosystem has continued expanding rapidly across institutional, retail, and developer use cases. Sui’s horizontally scalable architecture and object-centric design support high-frequency payment activity with predictable performance and low operational overhead — making it well-suited for emerging payment applications, agentic commerce, and enterprise-grade financial systems.
By dramatically cutting processing costs and eliminating gas pre-funding and volatile treasury management entirely, gasless transfers simplify infrastructure for institutions and make autonomous systems operationally viable. Free transfers mean gas fees can never rival or exceed the value of the payment itself — making micropayments viable at any scale.
Growing Institutional Momentum
Recent ecosystem momentum underscores rising demand for scalable stablecoin infrastructure. In 2026 alone, four SUI exchange-traded products from 21Shares, Grayscale, and Canary Capital launched globally, expanding institutional access to the Sui ecosystem. Marquee stablecoin initiatives — including the Bridge-issued Sui Dollar (USDSui) and Ethena-issued eSui Dollar (SuiUSDe) — have further strengthened Sui’s position as infrastructure for internet-scale finance.
