Sui Blockchain Hedges Emissions with Daily Buyback Program

The Sui blockchain has introduced a new feature to its tokenomics toolkit: stablecoin yield is now being routed into regular SUI purchases on the open market. This means that interest income from stablecoin treasuries and on-chain dollar positions is being allocated to scheduled SUI buy programs that run daily.

The goal of this program is to convert passive dollar yield into steady token demand, offsetting emissions and smoothing out supply pressure. The size of the buys depends on stablecoin balances, interest rates, and transparent execution.

There are two broad buckets where the yield comes from: fiat-backed stablecoins that park reserves in cash, T-bills, and repos, and on-chain cash deployed into conservative yield products like tokenized T-bills or money-market wrappers.
