SUI Overtakes Tron: Now the 3rd Blockchain by Daily Active Users

• SUI surpasses Tron With 2.46 million daily active users, SUI is now the third-largest blockchain by engagement.
  
•  Despite a 19.97% weekly price decline, SUI has added over 4.1 million new accounts in April alone.
  
• User activity on Tron continues to decline, with falling new address creation and increased wallet churn.

While the cryptocurrency markets continue to face bearish pressures, SUI’s story is making waves for a completely different reason. The layer-1 blockchain has surpassed Tron to become the third largest network by daily active users, thus achieving a significant milestone in SUI’s adoption journey.

Even though SUI’s token price has taken a major hit, the network activity on SUI has increased significantly, suggesting that the fundamentals of the blockchain ecosystem are moving towards strength in the long term.

SUI Blockchain Outpaces Tron in Daily Active Addresses Despite Market Slump

The blockchain recently featured on crypto news sites claiming that SUI surpassed Tron in active addresses. The reason being that Tron saw a decline from 2.77 million to 2.45 million active addresses, thus allowing SUI to claim the fourth spot on the leaderboard. On the network, daily active addresses increased from 1.38 million to 2.46 million, which is an astonishing increase of over one million users in such a short time.

This rise in SUI active addresses can be attributed to market movements as well as increased blockchain participation. The price decline of the SUI token is also notable. Currently, SUI is trading at $2.17, which represents a 9.73% decline in the last 24 hours and a 20% loss in the week. However, with the prolonged bearish sentiments dominating the crypto-market, it seems like user adoption is mercilessly unaffected.

Explosive Growth Shows Real-World Traction

The SuiScan blockchain explorer indicates the user accounts on SUI have already exceeded 123 million in early April 2025. Even in this month, more than 4.1 million new users have joined the network, which puts the number of total user accounts active above 100 million—more than an 81% engagement ratio. 

SUI is among the most actively used chains globally in terms of transaction volume. The network achieved remarkable on-chain activity by executing over 8 billion transactions and 2.9 billion transaction blocks from May 2023 to January 2025. 

Nonetheless, Solana still sits with the highest number of daily active addresses, despite their decrease from 5.2 million to 4.4 million. BNB Chain improved its position from the 6th to 5th spot, boasting 1.49 million active users, while Base tumbled down from 5th to 7th place. 

Tron’s decline is shown in various metrics. New addresses on the network have seen a 3.06% decline, with active ones falling 6.86%, according to IntoTheBlock. Interestingly, the number of zero-balance wallets has grown by 16.42%, indicating increasing user attrition and potential dissatisfaction. 

With the growing user base on SUI, the new trends also suggest that regardless of market conditions, SUI is reinforcing an important dynamic observed in blockchains—utility combined with adoption is increasingly emerging as a benchmark for long-lasting success over price alone.
