Over the past few years, most blockchains have offered developers a different experience. Essentially, the blockchain is a blockchain, storage is storage, identity is identity, and encryption is encryption; you have to figure out how to piece them together yourself!
Recently, while writing about @ferra_protocol on the @SuiNetwork ecosystem, I found it to be the same – it has swap, limited partners (LPs), and even social features!
I've noticed that the #sui ecosystem is developing increasingly well, and I'd like to summarize my understanding of $SUI's development plan for 2026!
➤ Sui is evolving from a high-performance public blockchain into a standardized, scalable development platform.
🌟 I'm also experiencing @ferra_protocol. Because I'm on @KaitoAI, I've started contributing through discussion, and after TGE, 0.25% of the tokens were given to the top 300!
🌟 My involvement on the Sui network might also be related to SUI's goals for 2026, as SUI aims to become a platform!
🌟 The new Sui Stack website clearly signals that @SuiNetworkCN is building a standardized development platform!
🌟 For developers, a single SDK covers storage, encryption, computation, authentication, and execution; all capabilities are designed from the outset with "collaborative work" as a premise.
Therefore, you no longer need to repeatedly consider "can this component be used with that component?" The blockchain becomes more like a platform!

➤ Experience DeepBook, so your funds are no longer just "lying down waiting to be traded"
🌟 In many DeFi systems, funds only have two states: either waiting to be traded in an AMM, or being used for leverage.
🌟 DeepBook's 2026 upgrade is breaking down this divide.
With the launch of margin trading, DeepBook will unlock two things simultaneously:
➟ Idle funds in the AMM can enter the wealth management system and earn returns.
➟ The same liquidity can also be used for leveraged trading.
🌟 The underlying change is crucial: funds are no longer locked in a single purpose, but become a layer of reusable financial infrastructure.
🌟 For users, this means higher capital efficiency; for builders, it's a complete set of trading and profit modules that don't need to be built from scratch.
🌟 DeepBook is no longer just "an order book," but a public foundation for financial applications on Sui.

➤ Stablecoin transfers go from "cheap" to "free"
🌟 If stablecoins are the product form closest to "real needs" in the crypto world, then what hinders their widespread adoption has never been consensus, but user experience.
🌟 In 2026, stablecoin transfers on Sui will take a crucial step: Transaction fees will approach zero, ultimately becoming free.
🌟 This sounds simple, but its significance is profound:
➟ Stablecoins will no longer resemble "on-chain assets" but rather real currency.
➟ Small payments, frequent transfers, and genuine commercial transactions will become essential for its success.
➟ Applications will finally no longer need to repeatedly "pay for gas" and "abstract" for users.
🌟 When transaction costs are no longer a parameter that needs explanation, stablecoins can truly transcend the crypto context and enter everyday financial scenarios.
➤ Privacy Transaction Functionality: From Optional Feature to Basic Capability
🌟 Sui plans to launch privacy transaction capabilities in 2026, and this is not an "external plugin" but protocol-level support.
🌟 This means enabling applications to use privacy by default, while still retaining room for compliance and selective disclosure.
🌟 This step determines whether Sui can support real-world financial activities, not just on-chain games.
Therefore, 2026 is a turning point for the Sui platform. This isn't about chasing a short-term narrative, but about preparing for a more certain future.
