Sui Network has expanded its utility through strategic partnerships focused on stablecoin payment infrastructure. Initially, the network partnered with Daya HQ to serve as settlement infrastructure for African businesses, facilitating cross-border payments and treasury management in regions including Nigeria, with plans for expansion into South Africa, Ghana, and Kenya.

The network’s application subsequently moved into the artificial intelligence sector through a collaboration with Alibaba Cloud. This partnership enables AI agents to autonomously purchase cloud services, such as computing power or data consultation, using USDC. Similar to the previous initiative, this model utilizes a system to cover network fees, allowing agents to settle transactions without holding native SUI tokens.
