SUI Up 54% Over Four Weeks, AVAX Up 49.7%, Both Outpacing Bitcoin and Ether

Crypto News reported SUI up about 54% over four weeks to Oct. 10, 2026 and AVAX up 49.7% to Oct. 11, while bitcoin and ether posted smaller gains or declines over matching windows.

Why it matters

Both reports come from a single outlet, and the evidence contains no regulatory, issuer or exchange response, so the wider significance is limited. Crypto News said the Sui liquidity growth does not establish what drove the token's move, leaving the cause of the rally unconfirmed.

What happened

Crypto News reported that SUI gained about 54% over the four weeks through Oct. 10, 2026, trading at roughly $1.11 at 6:50 p.m. ET against $0.7218 at 6 p.m. ET on Sept. 12 in CoinGecko's price series. A second Crypto News report, syndicated the next morning, put AVAX up 49.7% over the 28 days to Oct. 11, 2026, from $7.29 at 7 p.m. ET on Sept. 13 to $10.91. For comparison, the SUI report cited The Defiant's figures of a 7.3% bitcoin gain and a 0.8% ether decline over roughly the same window, while the AVAX report cited a 9% bitcoin gain and a 2.3% ether rise for its window ending a day later. Both tokens gave back ground in the final week, though Crypto News gave a number only for AVAX, which fell 1.7% against declines of 3.3% for bitcoin and 7.3% for ether. The SUI report also cited DefiLlama snapshots showing Sui's DeFi total value locked up from $458.2 million to $529.1 million and stablecoins on the network from $473.5 million to $500.9 million between Sept. 12 and Oct. 10, and said the liquidity growth does not show what drove the price. In the AVAX report, 36 of 45 non-stablecoin assets on The Defiant's watchlist were up over the 24 hours to Oct. 11, though Crypto News noted that basket is selected rather than a measure of the whole market.
