The daily transaction volume on the Sui blockchain dropped by over 98%, seven days after reaching a historical peak on July 27.

Daily Transaction Blocks on Sui Network Declined 98%

The latest data on Sui Network’s explorer shows that daily transaction blocks reached a historical high last month. Precisely, the Sui Network boasted 65.84 million transaction blocks on July 27. At the time, MystenLab’s Bullshark event, which promoted 8,192 games developed on the L1 blockchain, was still in progress.

Unexpectedly, Sui Network experienced a dramatic decline in its 24H transaction volume. Notably, the number of transactions on the Sui network dropped to 1,478,983 on August 2.

Moreover, as of August 3, it plummeted lower to 902,780. This sharp decline translates to a 98.6% decline from its all-time high. The development comes shortly after the conclusion of MystenLabs’ first Bullshark event on July 28.

The record decline comes precisely three months after the Suit network launched on the mainnet on May 3. As reported by The Crypto Basic, the Sui token dropped 30% following the mainnet launch amid support from Binance.
