The Sui Network can reportedly handle hundreds of thousands of transactions per second, though as of December 31, 2025, the network reportedly processed approximately 500 transactions per second at its peak. In an effort to increase the volume of transactions that can be processed on a given digital asset network, many digital assets are being upgraded with various features to increase the speed and throughput of digital asset transactions. As corresponding increases in throughput lag behind growth in the use of digital asset networks, average fees and settlement times may increase considerably. Since inception, SUI transaction fees are typically below 10 SUI per transaction though have been recorded higher than 600 SUI per transaction during periods of high congestion. Increased fees and decreased settlement speeds could preclude certain uses for SUI (e.g., micropayments), and could reduce demand for, and the price of, SUI, which could adversely impact the value of the Shares. There is no guarantee that any of the mechanisms in place or being explored for increasing the scale of settlement or throughput of Sui Network transactions will be effective, or how long these mechanisms will take to become effective, which could adversely impact the value of the Shares. Digital asset networks are developed by a diverse set of contributors and the perception that certain high-profile contributors will no longer contribute to the network could have an adverse effect on the market price of the related digital asset. Digital asset networks and related protocols are often developed by a diverse set of contributors, but are also often developed by identifiable and high-profile contributors. The perception that certain high-profile contributors may no longer contribute to the applicable digital asset network or protocol may have an adverse effect on the market price of any related digital assets. For example, in June 2017, an unfounded rumor circulated that Ethereum protocol developer Vitalik Buterin had died. Following the rumor, the price of Ether decreased approximately 20% before recovering after Buterin himself dispelled the rumor. Some have speculated that the rumor led to the decrease in the price of Ether. In the event a high-profile contributor to the Sui Network is perceived as no longer contributing to the Sui Network due to death, retirement, withdrawal, incapacity, or otherwise, whether or not such perception is valid, it could negatively affect the price of SUI, which could adversely impact the value of the Shares.
