- Coinbase adopted the Sui token standard, adding Sui alongside Ethereum and Solana as supported token standards on its platform.
- Sui said Coinbase Institutional will expand custody and treasury management services to the Sui Foundation as the partnership deepens.
Sui Network and Coinbase announced a partnership under which Coinbase will adopt the Sui token standard across its platform, adding Sui to the exchange’s list of supported standards alongside Ethereum and Solana. The companies said the integration will simplify how Sui-based tokens are handled for trading, custody, and developer workflows on Coinbase services.

A token standard is often supported to take into account the creation, indexing, and transfer of assets through an exchange stack, which may impact deposits and withdrawals, custody operations, and application tooling compatibility.
In the latest news, CNF outlined that Sui positioned itself as the blockchain of autonomous AI agents, claiming that agents require shared, verifiable state and atomic workflows to prevent partially conflicting actions across services.
Sui’s Custody and Treasury Services Expand With Coinbase Institutional
Additionally, Coinbase Institutional and Sui are extending their relationship through custody and treasury management services for the Sui Foundation. This positions Coinbase Custody for broader operational support tied to Sui-related assets, including storage and balance management, which are required by regulated funds and corporate treasury teams.
The partnership follows Coinbase’s move in December 2025 to allow SUI trading for New York residents. With New York access in place, the token-standard adoption adds an infrastructure layer that can support the issuance and movement of Sui-based tokens through Coinbase products used by both individuals and institutions.
Institutional interest has also been building through proposed investment vehicles tied to SUI. Bitwise filed a registration statement in December 2025 for a spot SUI exchange-traded product that names Coinbase Custody Trust Company as the custodian for the trust’s Sui holdings, according to the SEC filing.
The document describes Coinbase Custody’s role in safeguarding the assets held by the trust under a custody agreement. Elsewhere, Sui’s recent ecosystem updates revolved around new exchange access and DeFi tooling releases. They included support for SUI on HashKey Exchange and the launch of automated vault products on Sui by Full Sail.
SUI trades at $0.9746 at the time of reporting, gaining about **14% **in the past day after rebounding from roughly **$0.78 **during a market pullback.

ETH drops 0.56% in 15 minutes: Institutions’ ETF in-and-out flows and tightened on-chain liquidity dominate the market
From 17:45 to 18:00 (UTC) on 2026-04-19, the ETH price recorded a return of -0.56% within 15 minutes, closing in the 2294.03 - 2311.0 USDT range, with an amplitude of 0.73%. Heightened market volatility triggered increased short-term trading activity and boosted attention, while overall liquidity performance tightened.
The main driving force behind this unusual move is institutions’ short-term in-and-out flows of ETF funds and a lull in on-chain stablecoin activity. In early April, after the ETH spot ETF recorded a net inflow of $120.24 million over a short period, it quickly reversed to a net outflow of $64.61 million, indicating that institutional capital became more short-term and there was no signal of sustained accumulation. Meanwhile, on-chain USDT and USDC activity fell in tandem to an annual low; ETH’s short-term buying power was clearly insufficient, putting pressure on liquidity.
In addition, high-win-rate whales have been frequently shorting ETH and BTC since April 14, with related position sizes exceeding $25 million, further intensifying downward pressure in the short term. On the macro front, the Federal Reserve maintains high interest rates, the U.S. dollar remains strong, risk appetite has shifted to cautious, and some funds have flowed into traditional assets such as U.S. stocks. On-chain data shows that exchange reserves for ETH have fallen to the lowest level in nearly a decade, suggesting that long-term holders are actively shifting away from self-custody, further reducing market liquidity supply and amplifying price anomalies. Network conditions are stable; gas fees are operating at low levels, and on-chain transactions have not shown extreme spikes.
The risk of near-term fluctuations remains high. ETF fund flows, large on-chain transfers, stablecoin activity, and changes in whale positions will be key indicators to watch. If institutions step up selling or stablecoin outflows expand further, ETH price volatility may intensify. Please continue to monitor macro developments and on-chain liquidity changes, stay alert to the risk of sharp short-term volatility, and get more real-time updates.
