Summary

Adeniyi Abiodun, co-founder of Mysten Labs, discusses Sui’s growth, zero-fee payments, privacy, and agentic finance. He argues that Sui’s architecture makes it the leading network for stablecoin and AI-driven money movement, and touches on quantum resistance. The conversation highlights Sui’s divergence from memecoins toward value-added DeFi and payments.

  • Sui has seen 200% year-on-year developer growth and over $1 trillion in stablecoin volume since August 2024.
  • Zero-fee and private payments are key differentiators for Sui, aiming to make money movement as frictionless as messaging.
  • Agentic finance (AI agents executing transactions) is predicted to become crypto's largest use case.
  • Sui is already testing quantum-resistant signatures and expects to deploy them soon.
  • Bitcoin will likely adopt quantum resistance slowly, putting large value at risk.
  • The speaker believes charging for money movement is no longer viable and that Sui is architecturally ahead.
