Coinbase Announces Infrastructure-Level Integration With Sui Network
The post Coinbase Announces Infrastructure-Level Integration With Sui Network appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Blockchain The Sui Network and Coinbase revealed a major strategic partnership on February 6-7, 2026, elevating Sui beyond a standard exchange listing. Key Takeaways Sui is being integrated into Coinbase’s core infrastructure, not just listed as a tradable token. The move strengthens Sui’s institutional and regulatory positioning, including ETF-related custody. SUI price moved higher after the announcement despite recent token unlock pressure. The agreement embeds the Sui Token Standard directly into Coinbase’s global infrastructure, effectively positioning Sui alongside core networks such as Ethereum and Solana within the exchange’s internal systems. This type of integration is rare and signals that Coinbase views Sui as foundational infrastructure rather than just another supported asset. More Than a Listing: What the Integration Means Unlike typical listings, Coinbase is adopting the Sui Token Standard across its wallets, custody solutions, and backend services. This allows SUI-based tokens to move seamlessly through the Coinbase ecosystem, reducing friction for developers launching new tokens and simplifying onboarding for users interacting with Sui applications. Excited to announce we’re partnering with @Coinbase as they adopt the Sui token standard, making it easier than ever for institutions, builders, and everyday users to participate in the Sui ecosystem. pic.twitter.com/nzPW2Pu1V1 — Sui (@SuiNetwork) February 6, 2026 For builders, this lowers technical barriers.

The two are expanding custody and treasury management services aimed at institutional investors, reinforcing Sui’s positioning as an institution-ready blockchain. Regulatory access plays a key role as well. The move builds on Coinbase’s decision in December 2025 to enable SUI trading for New York residents under the state’s strict BitLicense framework, a regulatory milestone that few digital assets achieve.
