BlockBeats News, May 21st. According to official sources, Sui has announced the launch of the "Gas-Free Stablecoin Transfer" feature. Users and businesses can now engage in stablecoin peer-to-peer transfers on the network without paying any Gas fees or holding additional SUI token balances. This means that on the Sui network, the stablecoin transfer fee has officially dropped to $0. This feature is supported by Fireblocks and has been gradually rolled out on the Sui mainnet.
This upgrade supports various stablecoins including USDsui, SuiUSDe, AUSD, FDUSD, USDB, USDC, and USDY. Sui's co-founder and Mysten Labs CPO, Adeniyi Abiodun, stated that stablecoins are becoming a critical global financial infrastructure. However, users still need to manage Gas tokens separately, which adds complexity to their usage. The Gas-Free Transfer feature will remove this barrier, making on-chain payments simpler, more predictable, and easier to adopt.
This feature is built on the Address Balances, the new account balance system synchronized by Sui. It simplifies 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 surpassed $1 trillion. The officials stated that this upgrade will further propel Sui to become a core stablecoin infrastructure for enterprise payments, fintech, and AI Agent automated payment scenarios.
