Sui Launches Zero-Gas Stablecoin Transfers

Huo Xing Finance reports that on May 21, according to official announcements, Sui has launched its "Gas-Free Stablecoin Transfers" feature, enabling users and businesses to conduct peer-to-peer stablecoin transfers on the network without paying gas fees or requiring additional SUI token balances. This means that transaction fees for stablecoin transfers on the Sui network have officially been reduced to $0. The feature is powered by Fireblocks and is being gradually rolled out on the Sui mainnet. This upgrade supports multiple stablecoins, including USDsui, SuiUSDe, AUSD, FDUSD, USDB, USDC, and USDY. Adeniyi Abiodun, Co-founder of Sui and CPO of Mysten Labs, stated that stablecoins are becoming the core infrastructure of global finance, yet users still need to separately manage gas tokens, adding complexity to usage. The gas-free transfer feature removes this barrier, making on-chain payments simpler, more predictable, and easier to adopt. The feature is built on Sui’s newly introduced Address Balances system, which streamlines on-chain fund storage and transfer processes while maintaining high performance and scalability. Since August 2025, the total volume of stablecoin transfers on the Sui network has exceeded $1 trillion. The official team stated that this upgrade will further establish Sui as the foundational stablecoin infrastructure for enterprise payments, fintech, and AI agent-driven automated payment scenarios.
