[TEMP CHECK] Launch the AAVE protocol on the Sui Blockchain

Author: @vikalistva

Summary

Expand the AAVE protocol to Sui, a high-performance Layer-1 built on the Move language. By deploying Aave’s smart contracts in Sui’s environment and supporting both native assets and bridged tokens, Aave will become the go-to money market for Sui users, capturing early liquidity and defining the DeFi landscape on Sui.

Why Sui?

  • Parallel Execution & Massive Throughput: Sui’s object-centric, parallel engine delivers sub-second finality and scales effortlessly for high-volume events like liquidations.

  • Ultra-Low Fees & Instant Finality: Micro-fees and near-instant commits ensure cost-efficient markets and a smooth UX.

  • Explosive Ecosystem Growth: Sui’s DeFi TVL jumped ~7× to $2 billion in 2025, with daily transactions surpassing 50 million, an underserved user base hungry for advanced lending.

Core Advantages

  • First-Mover Edge: No major Ethereum-origin lending protocol exists on Sui—Aave can secure market share and ecosystem partnerships from day one.

  • Modular Move Architecture: Leverage Sui’s object model for innovative collateral-management modules and rapid feature rollout.

  • Advanced Risk Controls: Implement custom caps, isolation modes, and dynamic risk parameters tailored per asset.

  • Institutional & RWA Integration: Position Aave as the default market for tokenized treasuries and ETPs (e.g., 21Shares’ Sui products), unlocking institutional capital flows.

  • Security & Formal Verification: Built on Move’s strong type system, combined with dedicated audits, to minimize smart-contract risk.

Conclusion

  • Tap New Liquidity Pools: Instantly unlock Sui’s $2 billion TVL and 50 million tx/day throughput to supercharge protocol growth.

  • Pioneer on Sui: Establish Aave as the foundational lending platform, extending beyond EVM chains into next-gen architectures.

  • Maximize Technical Synergies: Exploit Move’s modularity and Sui’s parallel execution to deliver capital-efficient, resilient markets.

  • Reinforce Multi-Chain Leadership: Strengthen Aave’s multichain framework and solidify its position at the forefront of DeFi innovation.

Hi and thank you for this proposal. First of all, please follow the guidelines for a TEMP CHECK. There are plenty examples and pinned posts. I will close this thread till it’s been adjusted.
Secondly SUI is different to EVM, so Aave cannot simply be deployed there. Aave is coming to Aptos and they are both built in Move, but I don’t know if Aave could then be deployed there without any adjustment.

Taking the opportunity to comment here,

SUI, instead of working with the Aave DAO since day one, hired top clowns to lead a lending protocol. When they got hacked, they rolled back their chain.

It’s simply unfit as a network for a protocol such as Aave.

Unless there’s a fantastic strategic and business opportunity appearing, it’s an automatic NAY vote from ACI.

Also, this proposal is AI-generated lazy slop, thx but no thx.
