Supporting $500 million TVL, a list of Sui ecosystem DeFi projects
In this round of bull market, many DeFi projects have ushered in a stage of rapid business development, and indicators such as transaction volume and TVL have increased significantly. As the most "Degen" track, the new dynamics of the DeFi market are worthy of attention. For the community, in addition to paying attention to specific protocols, you can also pay attention to DeFi at the public chain level. As the first permissionless L1 blockchain with POS (Proof of Stake) consensus, Sui's DeFi projects are the absolute force supporting the development of Sui. This article summarizes the various types of DeFi projects in the Sui ecosystem.
Liquidity Pledge Agreement
In the Sui DeFi ecosystem, liquidity pledge is one of the core mechanisms. It allows users to lock tokens into the Sui network and obtain annualized returns by participating in the verification and maintenance of the network. Liquidity pledge tokens (such as HaSUI, vSUI, and afSUI) not only represent the user's ownership of the underlying pledged token, but can also be used as liquid assets in the DeFi ecosystem, providing users with investment opportunities that go beyond traditional pledge returns.
Aftermath
The Aftermath project is committed to providing a comprehensive decentralized financial experience on the Sui chain. It is not just a liquidity pledge protocol, but also a comprehensive DeFi platform that provides a variety of financial services such as spot trading and perpetual contracts.
Aftermath's full-chain operation mode ensures the transparency and security of transactions without relying on any external components such as sequencers or matching engines. Its core products include multi-asset pools and stable exchange mechanisms that support portfolio management, spot exchanges, and liquidity mining.
Aftermath's liquid pledge derivative is afSUI, allowing users to use SUI tokens for both pledge and liquidity. Aftermath's design has also attracted crypto members from different communities including NFTFi and GameFi, and its perpetual market provides an order book execution layer that supports leveraged trading of cryptocurrencies, foreign exchange, commodities, and GameFi assets.
As of writing, Aftermath's TVL is $49.76 million.
Haedal
Haedal is a liquidity staking protocol focused on the Sui network. Haedal allows users to stake SUI Tokens into the protocol and participate in asset management and liquidity provision in the Sui ecosystem as a liquidity provider.
The SUI Token pledged by users will be converted into haSUI, which can be used as a pledge certificate, and users can earn income through staking. These incomes are automatically reinvested every 24 hours, further increasing the efficiency of users' assets. Users can exchange haSUI for other assets at any time by unstaking or through decentralized trading platforms. haSUI will be deeply integrated throughout the Sui ecosystem. It will be available in multiple fields such as decentralized trading platforms, lending protocols, stablecoin protocols, NFT markets, etc.
As of writing, Haedal's TVL is $22.51 million.
Volo
The Volo protocol is a liquidity staking solution on Sui.
Through Volo, users can stake SUI tokens and receive vSUI (staked SUI) tokens. Unlike the original assets, vSUI tokens have no lock-up period and can be freely transferred and generate income in partnered DeFi protocols such as Bucket Protocol, NAVI Protocol, Scallop and WispSwap, or traded on decentralized exchanges such as Cetus, FlowX, Turbos and Kriya Dex.
As of writing, Volo's TVL is $43.52 million.
Decentralized Exchanges (DEX)
Decentralized exchanges are an important part of the Sui DeFi ecosystem. They facilitate the exchange of value between assets by providing liquidity. Most of the DEXs in the Sui ecosystem are based on the automated market maker (AMM) model, but they are also constantly innovating. For example, Cetus and Turbos use the Uniswap V3 model to improve capital efficiency, reduce slippage, and enhance the trading experience. DeepBook in the Sui ecosystem is a DEX based on an on-chain centralized limit order book, which provides traders with a trading experience similar to traditional trading platforms while maintaining decentralization and transparency.
Cetus

This new product enables users to trade with unprecedented precision and control, easily setting buy and sell orders at specific price points. The total trading volume of the Cetus protocol has increased by more than 66% in the past three months and has now reached more than $880 million. In the second quarter, Cetus's average daily trading volume exceeded $39 million.
