  EXHIBIT 99.1

 

SUI Group Launches eSUI (suiUSDe) with Ethena and Advances Institutional Adoption Through the suiUSDe Vault on Ember Protocol and Bluefin

 

WAYZATA, MN — February 11, 2026 — SUI Group Holdings Limited (NASDAQ: SUIG) (“SUI Group,” “SUIG” or the “Company”) today announced that its native synthetic dollar, eSui Dollar (suiUSDe), is now live on Sui Mainnet. Additionally, SUI Group announced the deployment of $10 million in newly minted suiUSDe into a yield-generating vault operated by Ember Protocol, a vault and investment infrastructure provider incubated by the team behind Bluefin.

 

As previously announced in October 2025, SUI Group partnered with Ethena Labs and the Sui Foundation to launch suiUSDe and USDi as the first native stablecoins built for the Sui ecosystem. With suiUSDe now live, SUI Group is transitioning from launch to utilization by committing capital into on-chain yield infrastructure designed to support scalable, permissionless participation.

 

The newly launched suiUSDe Vault is a permissionless, yield-generating vault backed by suiUSDe and built natively on Sui. SUI Group acted as the anchor participant by seeding the vault with $10 million, supporting its role as a foundational liquidity layer for stablecoin-based yield on Sui. The vault has an initial capacity of $25 million and is open to both institutional and individual participants.

 

“Launching the Ethena-backed suiUSDe was about establishing native, reliable synthetic dollar infrastructure on Sui,” said Marius Barnett, Chairman of SUI Group Holdings. “Seeding the suiUSDe Vault with $10 million is how we move that infrastructure into active use. By pairing a native stablecoin with a professionally curated, permissionless vault on Ember Protocol, we aim to put institutional capital to work on-chain, help form durable liquidity and sustainable yield on Sui, and create another value-creative mechanism for our ecosystem.”

 

“We’re seeing strong demand for crypto-native products that combine automation, transparency, and composability without requiring users to give up custody,” said Ibra Barbery, Co-Founder of Ember Protocol. “Vaults have emerged as the most effective way to deliver that experience, and partnering with SUIG allows us to bring institutional-grade curation into a fully permissionless, on-chain product that builds on the same ecosystem and technical lineage that helped Bluefin scale its stack of trading products on Sui.”

 

The vault launch reflects increasing demand for stablecoin-based yield opportunities on Sui and underscores SUI Group’s strategy of pairing native asset issuance with direct capital deployment to accelerate ecosystem growth.
